ChatGPT Plugins Tutorial for Beginners

From the creator

This ChatGPT Plugins tutorial shows you how to connect ChatGPT to the apps you already use, so it can pull your real data and then do the work for you. πŸ’΅ Get 50% off QuickBooks Online ➜ https://quickbooks.kevinstratvert.com/ First, you'll see what a plugin looks like in a normal chat, where ChatGPT reaches into Gmail and brings back only the emails that need your attention. Next, you'll open the plugin directory in the left sidebar, where over 100 apps sit across 10 categories and more than 1,000 plugins are available to search. Then you'll learn the difference between the App and Skills tabs, so you can tell whether a plugin only reads your data or can also send things. Along the way, you'll find out which ChatGPT plugins need a paid plan and which ones work on the free plan. After that, you'll install your first plugin and learn both ways to use one, including the @ symbol that calls a plugin by name. Then you'll set plugin permissions, and I'll walk through all four choices so you know what you are handing over before ChatGPT touches your account. Next, you'll watch a real write action, where ChatGPT sends an email and you get one chance to check it first. Finally, you'll stack two plugins in a single prompt, turning an email into a finished estimate without opening either app yourself. By the end, you'll know how to use ChatGPT plugins to get real work done in the apps you already have open.
