Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To create a Medium post using Google Generative AI, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to automate the integration of various applications without needing coding skills. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and logging in or signing up for a free account.

After signing in, navigate to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Simply click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow, such as ‘Create Medium Post Using Google Generative AI’. Organizing your workflows into folders helps manage them effectively.


Setting Up Google Sheets as the Trigger

In this step, you will set Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. This means whenever a new title is added in your Google Sheets, it will trigger the automation. Select Google Sheets as your trigger application and choose the event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.

To capture the response from your spreadsheet, follow these steps:

  • Log in to your Google Sheets account.
  • Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons.
  • Search for Pabbly Connect Webhook and install it.

After installation, you will need to set up the initial configuration by entering the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.


Generating Content with Google Generative AI

Once the trigger is set up, the next action is to generate content using Google Generative AI within Pabbly Connect. Select Google Generative AI as your action application and choose the action event as ‘Generate Content’. This integration allows you to create unique content based on the title provided in Google Sheets.

To connect Google Generative AI, you will need an API key from Google AI Studio. Follow these steps to obtain your API key:

  • Log in to Google AI Studio.
  • Navigate to the API Key section and create a new API key.
  • Copy the API key and paste it into Pabbly Connect.

After connecting, you can set the model to ‘Gemini Pro’ and specify the content generation parameters.


Posting the Generated Content on Medium

The final step involves posting the generated content on your Medium account through Pabbly Connect. Select Medium as your action application and choose ‘Create Post’ as the action event. This step will automate the process of publishing your content directly to Medium.

To connect Medium, you will need to create an integration token. Log in to your Medium account, go to Settings > Security and App, and generate a new token. Copy this token and paste it into Pabbly Connect. After successfully connecting, you can map the title and content generated earlier from Google Generative AI into the post fields.


Updating Google Sheets with the Post Link

After creating the post on Medium, you may want to update your Google Sheets with the link to the newly created post. In Pabbly Connect, add another action step by selecting Google Sheets again and choose the action event ‘Update Cell Value’. This allows you to dynamically update the specific cell with the post URL.

To do this, specify the spreadsheet name and the range where the URL should be updated. Use the format ‘C{row_index}’ to ensure that the correct row is updated based on the previous response. After saving this action, you will have a complete automation workflow that updates Google Sheets with the Medium post link.
