4. Generating Email Content Using OpenAI

Now that the trigger is set up, we need to generate creative email content. For this, select ‘OpenAI’ as your action application and choose ‘ChatGPT’ as the event. Click on ‘Connect’ and create a new connection by adding your OpenAI API key. using Pabbly Connect

Once connected, select the model you want to use, such as GPT-5, and input a prompt that instructs OpenAI to generate a creative email. For example, you might include the lead’s first name in the prompt to personalize the email.

Map the lead’s first name from the previous trigger step into the prompt. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the email content. Check the response to ensure the email content is generated successfully.

Once you receive the generated HTML content, you are ready to send it to the lead via email using Gmail.


5. Sending the Email via Gmail

The final step is to send the generated email to your lead using Gmail. Select ‘Gmail’ as your action application and choose ‘Send Email’ as the event. Click on ‘Connect’ and sign in to your Gmail account to allow Pabbly Connect to send emails on your behalf.

In the setup, enter the sender name, recipient email (mapped from the previous step), and the subject line for your email. For the email content, map the HTML content generated by OpenAI.

Set the content type as HTML to ensure the email is formatted correctly. Leave optional fields like CC and BCC blank unless needed. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to send the email.

After confirming the successful response, check your Gmail inbox to see the creative email sent to your lead, completing the automation setup.
