1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation

To create Google documents from Google Sheets using OpenAI, you first need to set up Pabbly Connect. This integration platform allows you to connect various applications seamlessly. After creating your free account on Pabbly Connect, log in to access the dashboard and begin creating your workflow.

Click the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’ and give your automation a name, such as ‘Create Google Documents from Google Sheets using OpenAI.’ Select the folder where you want to save this workflow and click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

2. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

Next, you need to connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect. This is done by selecting the trigger event, which in this case is ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. Upon selection, a webhook URL will be generated along with instructions for setting it up in Google Sheets.

• Go to your Google Sheets and click on ‘Add-ons’.
• Search for the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on and install it if not already done.
• Open the add-on and paste the webhook URL in the initial setup.
• Specify the trigger column where data will be added to activate the webhook.

After setting this up, click on ‘Send a Test’ to confirm the connection. If successful, the data from your Google Sheets will be sent to Pabbly Connect, confirming that the integration is working correctly.

3. Integrating OpenAI with Pabbly Connect

With Google Sheets connected, the next step is to integrate OpenAI through Pabbly Connect. Select the action event as ‘CH GPT’ and click on connect. You will need to log into your OpenAI account to generate an API key.

Once logged in, select your desired AI model, such as GPT-3.5, and provide a prompt for content creation. For example, instruct OpenAI to create content based on the topic provided in Google Sheets. You can map the topic directly from the previous step to automate this process.

4. Creating Google Document in Google Drive

After generating the content, the next step is to create a Google Document using Pabbly Connect. Choose the action event ‘Create a File in a Specific Folder’ and connect to your Google Drive account. You will need to select the folder where the document will be created.

• Map the file name using the topic from Google Sheets.
• Set the file type to ‘Document’.
• Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the document.

If the document creation is successful, you will see it appear in your Google Drive folder. This confirms that the integration is functioning as intended, allowing you to automate document creation seamlessly.

5. Updating Google Document Content

The final step involves updating the content of the newly created Google Document using Pabbly Connect. Select the action event ‘Upload a File’ and connect to Google Drive again. This time, you will map the file ID of the document created earlier.

Next, map the content generated by OpenAI to the document. This ensures that whenever a new row is added to Google Sheets, the document will be updated with the latest content automatically. Click ‘Save’ and wait for the response to confirm that the content has been successfully uploaded.

With these steps completed, you have successfully automated the process of creating Google Documents from Google Sheets using OpenAI and Pabbly Connect. You can now sit back and let the automation handle your tasks.
