1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start generating product descriptions automatically for your e-commerce store, you need to access Pabbly Connect. If you are an existing user, simply log into your account. For new users, visit the Pabbly Connect landing page using the URL provided in the description to sign up for free. Once you are signed up, you will receive 100 free tasks every month.

After logging in, you will be directed to the workflow builder. This is where the automation magic happens. In this window, you will set up triggers and actions, which are the core components of your workflow. A trigger starts the process, while actions are the results of that trigger. Now, let’s move on to creating your automation.

2. Setting Up Google Sheets Integration with Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will configure Google Sheets to work with Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Add Trigger’ button and select Google Sheets as your application. For the event, choose ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ and click on ‘Connect’. This action will provide you with a webhook URL that links Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect.

• Search for Google Sheets in the trigger section.
• Select the event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.
• Copy the webhook URL provided.

Next, open your Google Sheets and navigate to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons. Search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ and install it. After installation, refresh your spreadsheet to ensure the add-on is activated. You will need to paste the webhook URL into the add-on settings and specify the trigger column where data will be sent to Pabbly Connect.

3. Performing Test Submission for Data Capture

With the Google Sheets integration set up, it’s time to test the connection using Pabbly Connect. Go back to your Google Sheets and enter the product details, including product name, type, key features, target audience, and tone. This test submission will help confirm that the data is being captured correctly.

• Enter product details into the designated columns.
• Switch on the ‘Send on Event’ button in the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on.

After entering the details, check your Pabbly Connect workflow. It should show that it has successfully captured the response from your test submission. This step is crucial as it ensures that your Google Sheets are correctly integrated with Pabbly Connect and ready for automation.

4. Generating Product Descriptions Using AI in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will leverage Pabbly Connect to generate product descriptions using AI. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and search for OpenAI as the action application. Select ‘Chat GPT’ as the event and connect it to your Pabbly Connect account.

You will need to input your OpenAI API key to establish a connection. To get this key, visit your OpenAI API key page, create a new secret key, and copy it back into Pabbly Connect. After setting up the connection, you can now enter the prompt for generating product descriptions.

Select OpenAI and the event as ‘Chat GPT’. Input your OpenAI API key into Pabbly Connect. Enter your prompt for the product description.

Finally, map the product details you entered earlier into the prompt fields. This mapping allows the AI to generate dynamic descriptions based on the product information provided in Google Sheets. Once completed, save and send a test request to generate the description.

5. Updating Google Sheets with Generated Descriptions

The last step in this automation process is to update your Google Sheets with the generated product descriptions using Pabbly Connect. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and select Google Sheets again. This time, choose ‘Update Cell Value’ as the event.

Connect to your Google Sheets account, select the spreadsheet where you want to update the descriptions, and specify the cell range. You can map the row index dynamically, ensuring that each new product description is added to the correct row in your spreadsheet.

Select ‘Update Cell Value’ as the event. Map the response from the AI to the correct cell in your Google Sheets. Save and send the test request to update the sheet.

With this setup, every time you enter new product details in Google Sheets, Pabbly Connect will automatically generate and update the product descriptions in real-time without any manual intervention. This powerful automation can significantly enhance your e-commerce operations.
