1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start automating content generation, first access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to integrate various applications seamlessly. Sign in to your Pabbly Connect account or create a new one if you are a first-time user. After logging in, you will see the dashboard where you can begin creating your workflows.

Once in the dashboard, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner. You will be prompted to name your workflow and select a folder for organization. Choose a name like ‘Automatically Generate Content via Google Gemini and Share for Reviews on Slack’ and select a suitable folder.

2. Setting Up Google Sheets as a Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set Google Sheets as the trigger application. Click on the trigger section in Pabbly Connect and select Google Sheets. The trigger event should be set to ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. This means that every time a new title is added to your Google Sheets, Pabbly Connect will capture this update.

• Select Google Sheets as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the Webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

After copying the Webhook URL, open your Google Sheets document. Navigate to Extensions, then to Add-ons, and search for Pabbly Connect Webhooks. Install the add-on if you haven’t already. Once installed, go back to Extensions, select Pabbly Connect Webhooks, and click on Initial Setup. Paste the Webhook URL and set the trigger column to the final data column, which is typically Column B.

3. Generating Content Using Google Gemini

Next, you will set up the action step in Pabbly Connect to generate content using Google Gemini. For this, select Google Gemini as the action application and the action event as ‘Generate Content’. This step will utilize the title and keywords from your Google Sheets to create the desired content.

To connect Google Gemini, click on the connect button and enter the required API key. You can obtain this key from the Google AI Studio by creating a new API key for your project. Once connected, you will need to fill in the prompt field with a detailed request for content generation.

• Map the title and keywords from the previous step into the prompt.
• Select the model as Gemini Pro.
• Click on Save and Send Test Request to generate content.

Once the content is generated, you will receive a response containing the new content created by Google Gemini. This confirms that the integration between Pabbly Connect and Google Gemini is successful, allowing for efficient content generation.

4. Sending Generated Content to Slack for Review

After generating the content, the next step is to send it to your Slack channel for review. In Pabbly Connect, add another action step and select Slack as the action application. The action event should be set to ‘Send Channel Message’ to notify your review team.

Connect Slack to Pabbly Connect by selecting the token type as ‘Bot’. Authorize the connection, then select the channel where you want to send the message, typically named something like ‘Review Team’. In the message field, craft a message explaining that new content has been generated and include the mapped title and content.

Select the Review Team channel in Slack. Map the title and generated content into the message. Click on Save and Send Test Request to send the message.

Check your Slack channel to confirm that the message has been successfully sent. This integration ensures that your review team receives the latest content generated by Google Gemini, streamlining your workflow.
