1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Article Automation

To begin automating article writing and publishing, first, you need to set up Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to connect multiple applications seamlessly. Start by creating a free account on Pabbly Connect, which only takes a couple of minutes.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow.’ You can name your workflow something like ‘Draft Article on WordPress with Formatting and Image Using ChatGPT’ and select your main workflow folder.

2. Configuring Trigger and Action in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will configure the trigger and action for your automation using Pabbly Connect. The trigger will be set to Google Sheets to pick up blog titles and image URLs. Select Google Sheets as your trigger application.

• Choose the Google Sheets trigger event.
• Select the action application as ChatGPT for generating content.
• Finally, add WordPress as the action application to publish the article.

After selecting these applications, you will receive a webhook URL from Pabbly Connect. This URL is crucial for linking Google Sheets with your automation. Copy this URL and go to Google Sheets to set up the Pabbly Connect webhook add-on.

3. Integrating Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

Now, integrate Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect by installing the Pabbly Connect Webhook add-on. Once installed, open the add-on and paste the copied webhook URL. Specify the trigger column where you will input your commands.

For instance, if you want the automation to trigger every time you enter ‘Yes’ in a specific column, set that as your trigger column. Click the ‘Send Test’ button to verify the connection. If successful, you will see a confirmation message in Pabbly Connect with the data from Google Sheets.

4. Generating Article Content Using ChatGPT

With the Google Sheets integration complete, it’s time to generate content using ChatGPT through Pabbly Connect. Select ChatGPT as the action application and connect it using your API key. This key can be obtained from your ChatGPT account settings.

Once connected, you will need to specify the AI model (e.g., GPT-3.5 Turbo) and create a prompt for generating the article. For example, you can use a prompt like ‘Write an article on {blog title},’ where {blog title} is dynamically mapped from the previous response. This mapping allows the title to automatically populate in the prompt.

5. Publishing the Article on WordPress

The final step in your automation process with Pabbly Connect is to publish the generated article on WordPress. Select WordPress as the action application and connect it using your WordPress credentials and base URL.

• Map the article title and content from the ChatGPT response.
• Set the post status to ‘publish’ to make the article live immediately.
• Optionally, map the image URL to include images in your posts.

After setting these parameters, click the “Save and Send Test Request” button. If everything is set correctly, your article will be published on WordPress automatically, demonstrating the power of Pabbly Connect in automating your content creation process.
