1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To begin automating WordPress news updates, the first step is accessing Pabbly Connect. Simply visit the Pabbly Connect website by typing Pabbly.com/connect in your browser.

Once on the landing page, you will need to sign into your Pabbly account. Click on the ‘Sign In’ button located at the top right corner. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free, which provides 100 tasks monthly.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After signing into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow ‘How to Build an AI Agent to Auto-Schedule WordPress News Updates’.

• Select the appropriate folder for your workflow.
• Click on ‘Create’ to finalize your workflow setup.

Once the workflow is created, you will see two boxes: one for the trigger and one for the action. The trigger is the event that initiates the workflow, and the action is what happens as a result. In this case, the trigger will be a new file uploaded to Google Drive, which will then prompt actions in OpenAI and WordPress.

3. Integrating Google Drive with Pabbly Connect

To set up the trigger, select Google Drive from the trigger application options in Pabbly Connect. Choose the event labeled ‘New File in Specific Folder’ and click on ‘Connect’.

If you don’t have an existing connection, you will need to create one. Click on ‘Sign in with Google’ and select your Google account. Make sure to allow all the necessary permissions for Pabbly Connect to access your Google Drive.

• Select the folder where your news files will be stored.
• Ensure the folder has Pabbly access for OpenAI to read the files.

After setting up the Google Drive integration, upload a news PDF file to the selected folder. This action will trigger the workflow, allowing Pabbly Connect to monitor for new files.

4. Using OpenAI to Generate News Content

Next, you will integrate OpenAI to extract content from the uploaded PDF. In the action application section of Pabbly Connect, select OpenAI and choose the action event labeled ‘Extract Content from PDF’.

Connect your OpenAI account by providing the necessary API token. If you do not have an existing connection, create a new one by generating a secret key in your OpenAI dashboard.

Map the PDF URL from the previous step to ensure dynamic content extraction. Set the prompt to instruct OpenAI to create a news blog for WordPress.

Once all details are entered, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to see if OpenAI generates the content correctly. You should receive a response with the news heading and body.

5. Posting Generated Content to WordPress

The final step in this automation process is posting the generated content to WordPress. In Pabbly Connect, add another action step and select WordPress as the application. Choose the action event ‘Create a Post’.

Connect your WordPress account by entering the required credentials and base URL. Once connected, fill in the details for your post, including the title and content generated by OpenAI.

Set the post status to ‘Published’ to make it live immediately. Map the title and content fields from the OpenAI response.

After completing the setup, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. You should see a confirmation that the post has been created in WordPress. Check your WordPress dashboard to verify that the new post appears correctly.
