Generate AI Content with ChatGPT OpenAI When Import with CSV Importer

Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress supports ChatGPT to automatically generate content and images for your Posts, Pages, and Custom Posts when you import. This will be helpful in cases like if you want to import WooCommerce Products with Product descriptions and Posts with featured images. You just need to configure the ChatGPT option shown beside the post_content, post_excerpt, and featured_image fields while mapping in our plugin. This feature will automatically generate descriptions and images for the imported WooCommerce Products and your Posts.

Note to consider: Only In the CSV with empty post_content, post_excerpt, and featured_image fields, you can generate descriptions and images with the ChatGPT ai.
