For this automation, you will use Google Forms as the trigger application. Select Google Forms and set the trigger event as ‘New Response Received’. This means that every time a candidate submits a form, it will trigger the automation process. using Pabbly Connect

4. Setting Up OpenAI as an Action in Pabbly Connect

Once the trigger is established, the next step is to set up the action. You will select OpenAI as the action application. The action event will be ‘Generate Questions’ using the AI capabilities of OpenAI. This will allow the system to generate personalized interview questions based on the job title provided by the candidate. using Pabbly Connect

To connect OpenAI with Pabbly Connect, you will need an API key. If you don’t have one, you can generate it from your OpenAI account. After entering the API key in Pabbly Connect, select the AI model you wish to use for generating questions.

Select the model, such as GPT-3 or GPT-4. Input a prompt detailing the requirements for the questions. Map the job title and candidate name from the previous step.

This setup will ensure that the AI generates relevant questions tailored to the specific job position the candidate has applied for.

5. Drafting an Email with Gmail in Pabbly Connect

The final step in the automation process involves drafting an email using Gmail. This is done by selecting Gmail as the action application and setting the action event to ‘Create Draft’. This allows you to review the AI-generated questions before sending them to the candidate. using Pabbly Connect

When setting up the Gmail action, you will need to map the recipient’s email address, subject line, and body content of the email. The body should include the generated questions from the AI agent, formatted in a clear and structured manner.

Map the recipient’s email and subject line appropriately. Include the AI-generated questions in the email body. Select the appropriate label for organizing drafts in Gmail.

Once everything is set up, you can test the automation by submitting a new form response. If everything is configured correctly, a draft email containing the interview questions will be created in your Gmail account.
