3. Setting Up Google Sheets as the Trigger

The next step involves setting Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. This means that any new entry in your Google Sheets will initiate the workflow.

Select ‘Google Sheets’ as your trigger app and choose the trigger event as ‘New Spreadsheet Row’. After connecting your Google Sheets account, you will need to specify which spreadsheet to monitor for new entries.

Now that your trigger is set, it’s time to connect OpenAI as the action application in Pabbly Connect. This action will generate blog content based on the details provided in your Google Sheets.

Select ‘OpenAI’ as your action application and choose the event as ‘Create Completion’. You will need to enter your OpenAI API key to authenticate the connection. After authentication, you can set up the prompts to guide the content generation based on the data from your Google Sheets.

Select ‘OpenAI’ as the action application. Choose ‘Create Completion’ as the action event. Enter your OpenAI API key for authentication.

Make sure to map the relevant fields from your Google Sheets to the prompts in OpenAI to generate the desired blog content.

5. Updating Google Sheets with Generated Content

Finally, you will update your Google Sheets with the content generated by OpenAI using Pabbly Connect. This step ensures that your newly created blog content is saved in the specified column of your spreadsheet.

Select ‘Google Sheets’ again as the action application and choose ‘Update Row’ as the event. Map the fields accordingly to ensure the content generated by OpenAI is placed in the correct column of your Google Sheets.

After completing this final setup, you can test the entire workflow to ensure everything is functioning as expected. Once confirmed, you can start adding new entries to your Google Sheets, and the blog content will be generated automatically.
