1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start automating the generation of media briefs, first access Pabbly Connect. Go to Pabbly’s website and sign in or create a free account to explore its features.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard where you can create workflows. This is where the integration with Google Sheets, Gmail, and OpenAI will take place. Follow the simple steps to set up your automation process.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will create a workflow to connect Google Sheets with OpenAI and Gmail using Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button on the dashboard.

• Name your workflow, for example, ‘Auto-Generate Google Sheets Media Briefs’.
• Select a folder to save your workflow.
• Click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

Your workflow is now set up, and you can start integrating the applications needed for this automation.

3. Setting Up Google Sheets as the Trigger

To trigger the workflow, select Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. This will allow the workflow to activate when new entries are added to your Google Sheets.

Choose the trigger event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. This means that whenever you add new media details in your Google Sheet, Pabbly Connect will automatically capture this event. You will need to connect your Google Sheets account and set up the necessary permissions.

4. Integrating OpenAI to Generate Media Briefs

Next, you will integrate OpenAI to generate the media briefs based on the data captured from Google Sheets. In this step, select OpenAI as the action application in your Pabbly Connect workflow.

Choose the action event as ‘Generate Text’. You will need to input the API key from your OpenAI account, which allows Pabbly Connect to communicate with OpenAI. Make sure to map the relevant fields from the Google Sheets data to the OpenAI prompt.

• Map fields such as story title, description, and category.
• Set the prompt to generate a concise media brief.

After this setup, OpenAI will create a media brief based on the information provided in your Google Sheets.

5. Sending the Generated Brief via Gmail

Finally, to complete the automation, you will set up Gmail as the final action in your workflow. This will send the generated media brief to your team via email using Pabbly Connect.

Select Gmail as the action application and choose the event ‘Send Email’. Connect your Gmail account and fill in the required fields such as recipient email address, subject, and body content which will include the brief generated by OpenAI.

Enter the recipient’s email address. Map the email subject and content from the OpenAI response.

Once configured, your automation will send an email with the media brief every time new data is added to Google Sheets.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can efficiently automate the process of generating media briefs using Pabbly Connect, Google Sheets, OpenAI, and Gmail. This integration streamlines your workflow and enhances productivity.
