Q: Prompt automation questions...
I'm wondering if I can use SheetXAI for my situations...
1:
- In column A, I'd like to be able to paste the links to PDFs
- I'd like Column B to have my custom GPT prompt (for VoiceOver scripting) and bulk generate scripts using the pdf link in Column A as the source link.
- In columns C, D, E, F...each column will have a different custom prompt supplied by me that will generate bulk content all using the PDF from column A as the source.
2:
- In column A, I'd like to be able to paste a url
- I'd like Column B to have my custom GPT prompt (for VoiceOver scripting) and bulk generate scripts using the URL in Column A as the source.
- In columns C, D, E, F...each column will have a different custom prompt supplied by me that will generate bulk content all using the URL from column A as the source.
Possible??

1. PDF Links with Custom Prompts:
Normally we only accepted images as the only multimodal stuff in these types of cell by cell API calls, but this is the first time someone asked me about PDFs and funny enough the technology is already there. I should be able to add the feature in the next 24-48 hours where you can put direct PDF links. So yes, you'll be able to have PDF links in column A and use different custom prompts in columns B, C, D, E, F to generate bulk content from those PDFs.
2. URLs with Custom Prompts:
This one is possible too, but you will need some sort of scraper as a middle man. So your link in A, and B would be EXA scraping (1 dollar per 1000 links), then all the others can use different custom prompts to generate content from the scraped data.
I do some of those workflows in these 2 videos:

So yes, both are possible! For the PDF one, give me 24-48 hours to roll out that feature and you'll be good to go.
Let me know if you have other questions! 🙂

One more Use Case question... Can I: paste a PDF url (or upload a PDF), and then from my custom 'IG Carousels' prompt generate 5 slides of content based on the PDF where (and this is the important part ->) each slide of content is in a different column? (ie 5 filled columns and each column is a different slide)
Verified purchaser
Yes you can do that in 2 ways:
1. If you put a PDF URL once we add that feature, you can create custom commands where it's 5 different AI calls that each one reads the PDF and the previous slide to create the next slide. So column B creates slide 1, column C reads the PDF and column B to create slide 2, column D reads the PDF and columns B-C to create slide 3, etc.

2. You can have 1 AI call that creates all the slides but you tell it to use a very clear separator. This separator can then be fed to the chatbot like "column B values have separators in them, can you put each in its own column?" and it'll split them across columns C, D, E, F, G for you.

Both work great! Option 1 gives you more control over each slide, option 2 is faster and uses fewer operations.
Let me know if you have other questions! 🙂
