1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation

To automate video uploads from Google Drive to Gumlet, you need to set up Pabbly Connect. This integration allows you to connect both applications seamlessly. First, create an account on Pabbly Connect if you haven’t done so already. Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard.

Click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’ to start. Name your workflow something descriptive like ‘Upload Video in Gumlet from Google Drive Automatically’. Select your Google Drive folder where you’ll be uploading videos, and then proceed by clicking the ‘Create’ button.

2. Connecting Google Drive with Pabbly Connect

In this step, we will connect Google Drive to Pabbly Connect. You will see two boxes labeled ‘Trigger’ and ‘Action’. For our integration, select Google Drive as the trigger application. Choose the event that triggers the automation, which is ‘New File in Folder’. This ensures that whenever you upload a new video, it will initiate the workflow.

• Select ‘Add New Connection’ to connect your Google Drive account.
• Authorize access to your Google Drive account.
• Choose the specific folder where your videos will be uploaded.

Once the connection is established, upload a test video to the selected folder. After uploading, return to Pabbly Connect and click ‘Save & Send Test Request’. This will capture the video details, confirming that the integration is successful.

3. Uploading Videos to Gumlet via Pabbly Connect

Now that Google Drive is connected, the next step is to set up the action to upload videos to Gumlet using Pabbly Connect. Select Gumlet as the action application and choose ‘Upload Video’ as the action event. Click ‘Connect’ and then ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Gumlet account.

To authenticate, you will need an API key from your Gumlet account. Navigate to the Gumlet dashboard, go to ‘Users’, and then ‘API’. Generate a new API key and copy it back to Pabbly Connect. After successfully connecting, you will need to map the video details captured from Google Drive.

• Map the video URL, title, and description from the Google Drive response.
• Ensure the video URL is correctly formatted to avoid errors.
• Click ‘Save & Send Test Request’ to upload the video to Gumlet.

Once the video upload request is successful, you will see a confirmation message. This indicates that the video has been uploaded from Google Drive to Gumlet via Pabbly Connect.

4. Trimming Video Titles in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will address the video title formatting issue. When mapping the video title, you might notice it includes ‘.mp4’ at the end. To clean this up, we can use a feature in Pabbly Connect to split the text and remove the unwanted part.

Before the Gumlet action step, add a new action to split the text. Choose ‘Text Formatter’ and select ‘Split Text’. Specify the video title as the text to split and use ‘.’ as the separator. Choose the first segment to get the title without the file extension.

Map the cleaned title to the Gumlet upload action. Refresh the fields to ensure the new title is available. Test the workflow to confirm the title appears correctly.

With the title trimmed, you can now proceed to finalize the workflow. This ensures that every video uploaded to Google Drive will have a clean title when uploaded to Gumlet through Pabbly Connect.
