1. Accessing Pabbly Connect to Generate Exam Papers

To generate exam papers from question banks using Pabbly Connect, the first step is to access the Pabbly Connect platform. Start by navigating to Pabbly Connect at Pabbly.com/connect. Here, you can either sign in if you are an existing user or sign up for free if you are new.

Once signed in, you will arrive at the dashboard where you can manage your workflows. To begin the integration process, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button at the top right corner. This is where you will set up the automation that connects Google Drive with OpenAI and Google Docs through Pabbly Connect.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In the workflow creation dialog, name your workflow something descriptive, such as ‘Generate Exam Papers from Question Banks Using AI’. After naming, select a folder from the left sidebar to save your workflow. This organization helps in managing multiple workflows efficiently.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize the workflow setup.
• Choose Google Drive as your trigger application.
• Select ‘New File in Specific Folder’ as the trigger event.

With Pabbly Connect, this structured approach allows you to effectively manage your automation tasks. After setting up the trigger, you will need to connect your Google Drive account to proceed.

3. Connecting Google Drive to Pabbly Connect

To connect Google Drive, click on the ‘Connect’ button within the Google Drive trigger setup. You will be prompted to either select an existing connection or create a new one. If creating a new connection, select ‘Add New Connection’ and log in to your Google account, allowing Pabbly Connect access to your files.

Once connected, select the specific folder where your question banks are stored, ensuring that the folder is set to allow sharing with anyone who has the link. This is crucial for OpenAI to access the files for processing.

4. Integrating OpenAI with Pabbly Connect

After setting the Google Drive trigger, the next step is to integrate OpenAI. In the action step, select OpenAI as the application and choose ‘Extract Content from PDF or Image’ as the action event. This allows Pabbly Connect to send the PDF URL to OpenAI for content extraction.

To connect OpenAI, click ‘Connect’ and enter your OpenAI API key. This key is essential for authenticating requests. After entering the key, select the model you wish to use, typically GPT-4, and map the PDF URL from the previous step. This dynamic mapping ensures that each new file uploaded triggers the correct process.

5. Saving Generated Exam Papers to Google Docs

Once OpenAI generates the exam paper, the next action is to save this content to Google Docs. Select Google Docs as the application and choose ‘Create a Blank Document’ as the action event. This step allows Pabbly Connect to create a new document in your Google Docs account automatically.

• Map the document name to match the uploaded PDF file name.
• Click ‘Save and Send Request’ to create the document.

After creating the blank document, append the generated exam paper content to this document. This final step ensures that your exam papers are ready for use, demonstrating the power of Pabbly Connect in automating educational tasks.

Conclusion

Using Pabbly Connect, you can seamlessly generate exam papers from question banks using AI. This process saves time and enhances efficiency in exam creation, allowing educators to focus on teaching.
