This platform offers 100 free tasks every month for new users, allowing them to explore automation features.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard where you can view your workflows. To initiate the process, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will then be prompted to name your workflow, such as ‘Generate YouTube Video Description using Google Gemini’. After naming, select the appropriate folder to save your workflow.

2. Setting Up Trigger and Action in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will set up the trigger and action for your workflow. The trigger application will be Google Sheets, while the action will be Google Gemini. Select Google Sheets as the trigger application and choose the event ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. This means that whenever a new row is added in your spreadsheet, the workflow will automatically trigger.

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

After copying the webhook URL, you need to set up Google Sheets to send data to Pabbly Connect. Go to your spreadsheet, click on ‘Extensions’, then ‘Add-ons’, and install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on. This will enable Google Sheets to communicate with Pabbly Connect and send data whenever a new entry is made.

3. Configuring Google Sheets to Work with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on installed, you need to configure it for your specific needs. In your spreadsheet, go to ‘Extensions’ > ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ > ‘Initial Setup’. Paste the copied webhook URL into the designated field and specify the trigger column, which will be the column where you input your video titles.

For example, if your title is in column B, you will set the trigger column to B. This means that whenever a new title is added in column B, the entire row will be sent to Pabbly Connect for processing. After you complete this setup, click on ‘Send Test’ to ensure the connection is working correctly.

• Paste the webhook URL in the Initial Setup.
• Set the trigger column to the column where titles are entered.
• Click on ‘Send Test’ to verify the connection.

Once the test is successful, your Google Sheets is now properly set up to send data to Pabbly Connect whenever a new title is added.
