2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After logging in, you can create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button, and name your workflow for easy identification. This workflow will automate the process of writing and publishing your WordPress posts.

  • Select the trigger application as Google Sheets.
  • Choose the event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.
  • Connect your Google Sheets account to Pabbly Connect.

Once you set up the trigger, you can proceed to configure the action that will publish the post on WordPress. This setup ensures that every time you add a new detail in Google Sheets, it triggers Pabbly Connect to act.


3. Setting Up Google Sheets Integration

To link Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect, you need to install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on in your Google Sheets account. This allows Pabbly to capture data from your sheets seamlessly.

  • Go to Extensions in Google Sheets and select Add-ons.
  • Search for Pabbly Connect Webhooks and install it.
  • Follow the prompts to complete the installation.

After installing, refresh your Google Sheets. This will activate the Pabbly Connect options. You can now set up the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect, allowing it to send data from Google Sheets directly to your WordPress site.


4. Generating Content with Gemini

With the integration set, you can now use Gemini to generate content. In your workflow on Pabbly Connect, add an action step and select Google AI Studio as the application to generate content.

Configure the action by selecting the ‘Generate Content’ event. You will need to provide the API key from your Google AI Studio account. This key allows Pabbly Connect to authenticate and generate the necessary content for your WordPress posts.

Add a relevant prompt for the AI to generate a title and content. Map the fields from the previous step to ensure the content is generated based on your input. Test the action to confirm the content is generated successfully.

Once the content is generated, you can proceed to the next action step to publish this content on your WordPress site.


5. Publishing the Post on WordPress

Finally, to publish the generated content on your WordPress site, add another action step in your Pabbly Connect workflow. Select WordPress as the application and choose the ‘Create a Post’ event.

Map the fields such as the title and content generated by Gemini. You can set the post status to publish immediately or save it as a draft for later review. Ensure that you provide the correct WordPress credentials for a successful connection.

Enter your WordPress site URL, username, and password. Select the post type as ‘Post’. Map the title and content fields correctly.

After saving and testing this final step, you will see your new post published on your WordPress site, completing the automation process.
