Create or optimize hundreds of PrestaShop products in a single operation with ChatGPT
Make mass processing in PrestaShop with ChatGPT from Merlin Backoffice ® Flex
The initial idea was simple, the implementation considerably more technical, but we've done it for you:
It's possible for anyone by asking the right questions and giving the right instructions, the right info, refining their request... to use Chat GPT to write a product description, correct a summary text, optimize SEO fields...
But the genes of Merlin Backoffice Flex are not to work on one product at a time. Whenever possible, it offers a solution for mass processing.
When you combine the two concepts, the result is: a mass processing tool in Merlin Backoffice Flex for PrestaShop that allows you to dialogue with ChatGPT in a SINGLE operation to have it write or modify text specific to each of the multiple products selected.
A more telling example: "Dit ChatGPT, merci de corigé mais fotes de gramère dasn les descripsion de mes 100 produits" Pretty cool isn't it?
We gave a lot of thought to the best possible interface, so that this tool would be hyper-easy to use, yet limitless. The answer was staring us in the face: include it as another tool in MagicEdit! the mass-processing tool you often tell us you adore. It's true, it was already amazing, but now it's mind-blowing.
MagicEdit is even more magical than before: it can talk to ChatGPT. Or more precisely, lets you chat with ChatGPT to ask it to assist you in writing or batch enhancing a large number of products, categories or whatever you want that Merlin already knew how to handle en masse.
MagicEdit launched on dozens of products to improve their long descriptions with generative AI:
A smart and easy ChatGPT interface for everyone:
You can choose to use GTP3 or 4.
Choose the engine you want (for experts).
Use a free or paid OpenAI account.
Limit token consumption (number of words in answers).
Control throughput (number of chats per minute) to avoid saturating the robot.
We've included a dictionary of prompts (to bookmark your questions that work best and thus avoid re-typing them). Or to share with others.
You can specify
You can specify the role to be played by the robot (e.g. "you're an SEO expert") and give it instructions (e.g. writing style).
You can include up to 4 prompts (questions) per query to make the AI work in successive iterations (sequence of questions using the previous answer as a piece of information). The future will tell whether this number needs to be increased.
Parametric prompts: in each prompt, you can include by selecting them from a list the contents of other fields in the table (for example, to tell the robot what the name or brand of each product is), exactly as we already do in MagicFormula.
So the robot will receive different prompts, specific to each item.
Advantages of integration with MagicEdit:
As the tool is integrated into MagicEdit it benefits from all its qualities:
-Preview of the result before saving or canceling (we've also redone this part, see below).
-Management of auto-saved configurations by column, duplication configuration libraries etc..
-Application in the same pass on the column of other functionalities (column merge, search replace, html conversion etc...)
You want more? we've got more good news:
Verification of robot work made easier:
We've enhanced MagicEdit with a line-by-line verification tool that's much more practical than looking at the result in the table from afar (that's still possible, of course).
This way you can check the quality of the AI's response line by line, and cancel changes if you're not satisfied:
MagicEdit and therefore ChatGPT automatable during scheduled imports:
Another great new feature that many of you asked for, MagicEdit, as already enabled by its MagicFormula brother, can operate in automatic mode, column by column, in the table reading the contents of catalog files to be imported.
This makes it possible to fully automate the modification of file contents before import, without having to go through a prior editing stage in Excel or Open Office.
Why have we done it now? because it allows you to use ChatGPT to improve the content of your supplier files, for example to ask it to write unique content for you, or to translate them into another language. The number of possible uses is limitless.
And this is likely to be just the beginning. If it can already be asked to write optimized ALT tags for photos en masse, it's easy to imagine that soon the AI built into Merlin will enable you to improve product photos, or even create unique new ones from scratch to set yourself apart from the competition, based on a set of brand photos found everywhere else.
