After naming your workflow and selecting a folder, click the ‘Create’ button. You will now see two windows: one for the trigger and another for the action. This setup is crucial as it defines how Pabbly Connect will automate the process.


3. Setting Up the Trigger with Google Sheets

The next step is to set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. For this integration, select Google Sheets as your trigger application. The trigger event should be set to ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ to capture data as it is entered in your Google Sheets.

Once selected, Pabbly Connect will provide you with a webhook URL. Copy this URL and head over to your Google Sheets. Here, you need to install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on if you haven’t already. After installation, refresh your spreadsheet and go to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup.

  • Paste the copied webhook URL.
  • Set the trigger column (e.g., Column D for audience data).

Click the submit button to complete the setup. Ensure to enable the ‘Send on Event’ option to allow real-time data transfer from Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect.


4. Generating Titles and Descriptions Using OpenAI

Now that the trigger is set up, it’s time to generate YouTube video titles and descriptions using OpenAI through Pabbly Connect. For the action application, select OpenAI and the action event should be ‘Chat GPT’. Click connect and either create a new connection or select an existing one.

To establish this connection, you will need an API token from OpenAI. Generate this token by navigating to the API keys page on OpenAI, creating a new secret key, and copying it back to Pabbly Connect. After connecting, choose the AI model (e.g., GPT-4 Mini) for generating content.

Set the prompt for generating titles: ‘Generate 10 trending and catchy YouTube video titles based on the following details…’. Map the data fields such as video topic, keywords, video type, and audience from the previous step.

Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the titles. The AI will return a list of catchy titles based on the provided input.


5. Updating Google Sheets with AI Generated Content

After generating the titles and descriptions, the final step is to update your Google Sheets with this information using Pabbly Connect. For this, add another action step and select Google Sheets again, this time setting the action event to ‘Update Row’.

Connect to your Google Sheets account and select the spreadsheet where your video content is stored. Map the row index and the AI-generated titles and descriptions to the respective fields in your spreadsheet. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the updates.

Ensure the titles and descriptions are correctly mapped to their respective columns. Verify that the spreadsheet updates automatically with the AI-generated content.

With this setup, you will have an efficient workflow that automates the title and description generation process for your YouTube videos using Pabbly Connect.
