Automation Google Sheets > OpenAI

Hello!

I just setup a workflow Google sheets to OpenAI to Google sheets.

I created a spreadsheet with in row A different titles which i want OpenAI to create a blogpost for and send it back to Google Sheets. (i created this watching this video:
)

The first title (Cell a2) works fine and give the blogpost in cell B2. But how can i automatically generate blogposts for the other titles in row A? I dont want to setup this process by hand each time.

Thanks a lot!

Hey @JanvanOO

You can only use "Send On Event" when setting up Google Sheets if the data is coming from a Google application or if you manually enter it. If the data is coming from a third-party application, however, you may need to choose "Auto Send On Schedule" or "Send on Schedule," which will forward the data in exactly one hour.

Thanks! The sheet now updates on the scheduled time which is good. Two other questions:

1. Is it possible to update only the empty cells instead of all te content?
2. Can i make longer texts then 256 characters?

I use Google sheets > OpenAI > Google sheets to create blogposts. I only fill the titles and let OpenAI generate the text

1. Is it possible to update only the empty cells instead of all te content?
It appears that you are using the "Update Row Values" action step where you need to pass the data in a comma separate manner.

Whereas you can also use the "Update Row" action step instead for simplicity to update the row values in separate fields.

2. Can i make longer texts then 256 characters?
The help text states, "Enter the maximum number of tokens to generate the content. The Max limit is up to 2048 tokens. The default value is 256."

Thanks for your reply!

I have set it up on this way:

1. Scheduling
2. Google sheets > Get Rows
3. Itterator > 2. Response results
4. OpenAI > Generate content
5. Google sheets > Lookup Spreadsheet Rows
6. Google sheets > Update Cell Value

Should i replace step 2 and setup 'Update Row' instead of 'Get Rows' ?

Thanks a lot!

Thanks! I cannot replace 'Get Rows' by 'Update Row' without breaking things.. Could you explain me the exact steps? Or maybe there is a video for this? I just want scheduled content only for the empty rows and dont update everything..

Hey @JanvanOO

No, there is no other possibility to update rows in Google Sheets.
