1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Recipe Automation

To start automating your recipe sharing on Facebook, you need to access Pabbly Connect. First, log into your account or sign up for a free trial if you are a new user. Once logged in, navigate to the workflow builder where you will set up the automation.

The workflow builder is crucial as it allows you to create triggers and actions. A trigger initiates the workflow when a specific event occurs, while actions are the tasks executed as a result. In this case, the trigger will be a new entry in Google Sheets.

2. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

To connect Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect, click on the ‘Add Trigger’ button within your workflow. Search for ‘Google Sheets’ and select it. Choose the event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ and click on ‘Connect’.

• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Open your Google Sheets, go to Extensions, then Add-ons, and select ‘Get Add-ons’.
• Search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ and install it.

After installation, refresh your Google Sheets. Go to Extensions, then Pabbly Connect Webhooks, and select ‘Initial Setup’. Paste the copied webhook URL and set the trigger column, which should be the last column where data will be entered. Click on ‘Submit’ to save the configuration.

3. Using OpenAI with Pabbly Connect for Recipe Generation

Next, you will use OpenAI to generate recipes based on the data entered in Google Sheets. Add a new action step in your workflow and select ‘OpenAI’. Choose the event as ‘Chat GPT’ and connect it. using Pabbly Connect

For the connection, if you have already connected OpenAI, select the existing connection; otherwise, create a new one by entering your OpenAI API key. After connecting, select the AI model, such as GPT-5, and enter the prompt to generate the recipe. Ensure you map the necessary fields from your Google Sheets data to make the recipe generation dynamic.

• Map the ingredients, cooking steps, serving size, cooking time, dietary tags, and tone from the previous step.
• Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the recipe.

Once the recipe is generated, you can see the output in your workflow, which will include the recipe details and hashtags for the Facebook post.

4. Posting the Recipe on Facebook Using Pabbly Connect

To post the generated recipe on Facebook, add another action step in your workflow. Search for ‘Facebook Pages’ and select it. Choose the event as ‘Create Page Photo Post’ and connect your Facebook account.

After connecting, select your Facebook page where you want to post the recipe. Map the photo URL generated from OpenAI along with the description (recipe details) in the appropriate fields. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to finalize the post.

Ensure your Facebook account is logged in for a successful connection. Verify the post on your Facebook page after testing.

After refreshing your Facebook page, you should see the new recipe post complete with the image and caption, demonstrating the power of automation through Pabbly Connect.

5. Testing the Automation in Real-Time

To ensure everything works correctly, test your automation by entering new recipe details into your Google Sheets. As soon as you fill in the necessary fields, the automation will trigger, and the new recipe will be generated and posted on Facebook without any manual intervention.

Keep an eye on your Facebook page to see the live updates. You can enter various recipes, and each entry will automatically create a new post, showcasing how Pabbly Connect seamlessly integrates these applications for efficient workflow management.

This process not only saves time but also enhances your online presence by consistently sharing delicious recipes with your audience. By leveraging the capabilities of Pabbly Connect, you can focus on creating more recipes while the automation handles the posting.
