1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To automate WordPress posts using OpenAI responses generated from Google Sheets, start by accessing Pabbly Connect. Log into your Pabbly Connect account, where you will create a new workflow.

Click on the big blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’ on the right side of the dashboard. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Create WordPress Post with OpenAI Using Titles from Google Sheets’, and click ‘Create’ to initiate the setup.

2. Setting Up Google Sheets as a Trigger

In this step, you will configure Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Select Google Sheets and choose the event ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. This event will trigger the automation whenever a new row is added or an existing row is updated.

• Open your Google Sheet and enter the title and prompt for your WordPress post.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons in Google Sheets and install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on.

After installation, return to the Pabbly Connect dashboard, paste the webhook URL into the add-on, and select the appropriate trigger column. This setup ensures that whenever you update or add a row, the information is sent to Pabbly Connect for further processing.

3. Generating Content with OpenAI

Once the trigger is set, the next step in Pabbly Connect is to generate content using OpenAI. Choose OpenAI as your action application and select the event ‘Generate Content’. This action will take the title and prompt from Google Sheets and create unique content.

Connect your OpenAI account by providing an API key. You can generate this key by logging into your OpenAI account and creating a new key. Once connected, configure the action settings:

• Select the AI model you want to use, such as text-DaVinci-003.
• Enter the prompt, which will be something like ‘Essay on happiness’ based on your Google Sheets input.
• Set the maximum tokens for the response, typically around 300 for a brief essay.

After configuring these settings, send a test request to confirm that OpenAI generates the content successfully. You should see the generated essay as a response.

4. Posting Generated Content to WordPress

The final step in the automation process involves posting the generated content to your WordPress site using Pabbly Connect. Select WordPress as your action application and choose the event ‘Create a Post’. This action will create a new post using the content generated by OpenAI.

Connect your WordPress account by entering your username, password, and the base URL of your WordPress site (excluding any trailing slashes or admin paths). Once connected, configure the post settings:

Map the post title from Google Sheets. Map the content generated by OpenAI to the post content field. Set the post status to ‘Published’ to publish it immediately.

After filling in these details, send a test request to create the post. If successful, you will receive a confirmation response indicating that your post has been created on WordPress.
