Getting Started

New to this.
I want to automate summarizing PDFs’ that I get (like newsletters) using ChatGPT or Claude

I download the PDF (link would be in email) then I save it to Zoho Drive. I want Make to take that PDF, send it to ChatGPT,summarize and send out an email with the summary in body of email.

I use Zoho Mail.

Would appreciate any help
thank

Hi @David_H99 and welcome to Make!

Well, it doesn’t look like either of the APIs can do that. However, you have options:

  • You can extract the content of the PDF and send that to ChatGPT or Claude. Here is one way to do that:
  • You can use an Assistant (ChatGPT only) and send the PDF to the assistant and ask for a summary. It’s quite a bit more involved and will require maintenance to avoid reaching the file limit (20). Also, the API is beta.

thank you
Sounds easier just to put PDF in ChatGPT and ask it for a summary
