1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To create a WordPress post for a published YouTube video, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and signing in to your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and get 100 free tasks each month.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard where you will see various applications. Select Pabbly Connect to begin creating your workflow. This platform will enable you to automate the integration between YouTube and WordPress seamlessly.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Next, you need to create a workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located in the top right corner of the dashboard. A dialog box will appear asking for a workflow name. Enter a descriptive name such as ‘Create WordPress Post for Published YouTube Videos’.

• Select a folder to save your workflow, such as ‘WordPress Automations’.
• Click on ‘Create’ to establish the workflow.

This setup allows you to define the trigger and action steps necessary for the automation process. The trigger will capture new video uploads from your YouTube channel, while the action will create a post in WordPress based on that video.

3. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

For the trigger step, you will select YouTube as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Choose the event ‘New Video in Channel with Video URL’. This means that every time a new video is published on your YouTube channel, the workflow will activate.

Click on ‘Connect’ to establish a connection with YouTube. You will be prompted to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your YouTube account. After successful authorization, select your channel from the dropdown list and click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will capture the latest video details, including the title and description.

4. Filtering Videos to Exclude Shorts

To ensure that only long videos trigger the workflow, you will need to add a filter in Pabbly Connect. Select the action application as ‘Filter by Pabbly’. Here, you will set the filter conditions to exclude videos with the word ‘shorts’ in their title.

• Set the filter type to ‘Does Not Contain’.
• Enter ‘shorts’ as the value to filter out any short videos.

After configuring the filter, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. If the condition is met, the workflow will proceed to the next step, allowing you to generate content for the long video.

5. Generating Content with Google Gemini

The next step involves generating content using Google Gemini, which is integrated through Pabbly Connect. Add a new action step and select Google Gemini as the application, with the action event set to ‘Generate Content’. You will need to connect your Google Gemini account by providing the necessary API key.

Once connected, input the prompt that will guide the content generation. Use the title of the YouTube video as a reference. Make sure to map the data from the previous steps to ensure dynamic content generation. Finally, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the content.

Conclusion: Posting Content on WordPress

After generating the content, the final step is to create a post on your WordPress account using Pabbly Connect. Select WordPress as the action application and choose ‘Create Post’ as the action event. Connect your WordPress account by entering the username, password, and base URL.

Map the title and content generated from the previous steps to the respective fields in the WordPress post setup. Finally, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to publish the post. This automation ensures that every time a long video is uploaded to your YouTube channel, a corresponding post is created automatically on your WordPress site, streamlining your content management process.
