1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start using Pabbly Connect for auto-generating video titles and descriptions, first visit the Pabbly Connect website. You can access it by typing Pabbly.com/connect in your browser. Once there, sign in to your account or create a new one if you are a new user.

After logging in, you will be directed to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, you can manage your workflows and create new ones. Click on the Create Workflow button to initiate the process of integrating Google Sheets with OpenAI.

2. Setting Up the Workflow with Google Sheets and OpenAI

In this section, you’ll create a workflow that connects Google Sheets with OpenAI using Pabbly Connect. Start by naming your workflow, for example, ‘Auto-Generating Video Titles and Descriptions’. Select the folder where you want to save this workflow.

• Name your workflow appropriately.
• Select the folder for organization.
• Click on Create to finalize the setup.

Once your workflow is created, you will see two boxes labeled Trigger and Action. For the trigger, select Google Sheets and set the trigger event to New or Updated Spreadsheet Row. This allows the workflow to start whenever new data is added to your Google Sheet.

3. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

To connect Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect, you need to set up a webhook. This webhook acts as a bridge between your Google Sheet and the Pabbly Connect workflow. Open your Google Sheet where you will be adding the video topics.

• Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons.
• Search for Pabbly Webhooks and install it.
• Set the trigger column in the add-on settings.

Once the add-on is installed, you will need to enter the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect. This URL will allow data from your Google Sheets to be sent to the workflow whenever a new row is added.

4. Generating Video Titles and Descriptions with OpenAI

After setting up Google Sheets, the next step is to integrate OpenAI into your workflow through Pabbly Connect. In the action application, choose OpenAI and set the action event to Chat GPT Structured AI Output. Connect to your OpenAI account by entering your API token.

Now, you will need to construct a prompt that instructs OpenAI to generate the title and description based on the data received from Google Sheets. Use a dynamic mapping method to pull in details such as the video topic, keywords, and audience. This ensures that every time new data is added, the AI generates relevant titles and descriptions.

Enter the prompt in a structured format. Use JSON for the response format to separate title and description. Map the fields dynamically to ensure updates.

Once the prompt is set, test the workflow to see if OpenAI generates the expected outputs. You should receive a title and description in JSON format, confirming that the integration is successful.

5. Updating Google Sheets with Generated Content

The final step in this automation process is to send the generated title and description back to your Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. Add another action step in your workflow and select Google Sheets again. This time, choose the action event Update Row.

Connect to your Google Sheets account and specify the spreadsheet name and the row index where the data will be updated. Use dynamic mapping to ensure that the correct row is updated with the new title and description generated by OpenAI.

Select the correct spreadsheet and sheet. Map the row index dynamically to accommodate new entries. Save and send a test request to confirm updates.

Once the test is successful, your Google Sheets should now automatically update with engaging video titles and descriptions every time you add a new topic. This completes the automation process using Pabbly Connect.
