How to chain prompts in Make.com

LLMs generally don’t like to output long pieces of text. oftentimes it's hard to get more than 600–700 words out of a single prompt. If we want to generate longer pieces of text, say you have an hour-long podcast you want to turn into a readable format, 600–700 words simply doesn’t cut it.

The same goes for turning an idea into a longer article, you first need to create or generate an outline, and then process each part separately. But what if we want this to be dynamic? Not every piece of text needs the same outline.

To fix that, we can use a few simple techniques in Make.com, dynamically process each section, and in the end, combine everything!

The workflow

In this case, it will be a transcription of a YouTube video that will be turned into a longer article. This could be anything else, use whatever you’d like.

• Provide input text
• Turn said text into an outline using a single prompt
• Iterative over the sections and process them separately
• Combine everything for the final result.

We provide the input text through a simple basic trigger (this can be swapped out for something else)

Then, we use “JSON Mode”, hidden under advanced settings in the “Create a completion” module from OpenAI. JSON output provides a structure that makes it possible for us to extract different elements.

We use a basic prompt, like so, to cut up the large text into smaller parts:

## Instructions

You are a content writing specialized tasked with creating an outline for a structured text out of a transcribed youtube video. This needs to be in the following JSON format.

## Example
{
  "1": "Short description of Section 1",
  "2": "Short description of Section 2",
  "3": "Short description of Section 3",
  "4": "Short description of Section 4"
}

## Transcription

{{58.text}}

## Structure

This provides us with elements we can use, especially if we hand it over to a Parse JSON module.

However, an array alone isn’t enough. Make uses bundles, which are like baskets of information. Right now, the structure is in a single basket and we need to turn it into multiple baskets, separating the sections so we can process each one. For this, we use an iterator. Now, we can pass each basket on to ChatGPT separately.

In the image below, you can see in the little white circles on the top right of each module there’s a “1” for the first, then that turns into 8 after the iterator, only to be combined into 1 by the aggregator.

Once we’ve separated them using the iterator, we can write a new prompt (without JSON Mode)

## Instruction

You will be provided with a transcript from a youtube video and a structure of the text. Your task is to write one single section of that transcript, specifically {{14.value[]}}. Make sure to not overstep on other section.

## Transcription

{{58.text}}

## Structure
{{8.Skeleton}}

Continue and only continue the writing of point {{14.`__IMTINDEX__`}} . Write out only this section in a complete and thorough manner. 

## {{14.value[]}}

In this case, the {{14.value[]}} will take the section we’re at from the basket, which allows us to build a different prompt for each part of the skeleton.

In other words, we iterate over the different sections and fill in the next section, like so:

• Write section 1, Introduction to the important of an AI….
• Write section 2, Strategies for filtering and…
• Write section 3, Tools and methods..
• … etc.

We use the Text Aggregator to combine the separate written-out sections into one single piece of text, and go from all the separate buckets, back to a single one.

This means we go from one long piece of unstructured text to one long piece of structured text!

Into this:

Every business and team should have their own AI knowledge base internally, with dedicated people contributing to it. The key problem lies in the overabundance of information and noise, with teams often operating in silos. In this video, I will share the system that we have developed in our company to centralize the information that individuals come across. We will discuss how we capture, filter, and utilize this information effectively. Let's delve into the crucial role that an AI knowledge base plays in streamlining information management for businesses and teams.
First thing is filtering your sources kind of training your social media algorithm towards the content that you would like to watch maybe separating different accounts your professional one with your personal one and here I'm talking about Instagram Twitter and even Tik Tok even though I don't use Tik Tok myself it's not healthy for me podcast newsletters LinkedIn articles on the web you name it one optional source that I would like to share with you is Feedly it's not for free it comes at the cost and that's why I mean it's optional Feedly basically Aggregates all the news feeds that you are interested in in one place.
Next thing is how do you capture all this information. There are bazillion of ways to do that and I tried automations, different project management softwares, and those all work but I personally don't like to use 10 different tools and pay small subscriptions for each. So, I boiled it down to three, of which one is completely free.

Capturing is not only about how you capture but also where do you capture all that content. My personal preference is Notion, but we also use Obsidian for different types of purposes. Notion allows you to create relationships between different databases, making it easier to organize and access information. 

On desktop, I use Readwise. Readwise costs a little bit of money but is so universal and useful that it has become my go-to for capturing content. Another way I capture content on desktop is through the Save to Notion Chrome extension. This allows you to develop templates for how you capture content and the way it captures content is amazing as it not only grabs the URL but also everything from that web page. This is extremely useful when utilizing Notion's AI features like Q&A, where you can ask questions about your whole database and it gives you answers. The richer the information you capture, the better answers you will get.

For mobile users, there is a brilliant way to capture content on both Android and iPhone. You can simply take a piece of content, no matter what it is, and share it to Notion. This seamless
When it comes to setting up and using databases in Notion for content organization, it's important to establish a systematic approach that works for your team. To begin, you can create a new page within Notion and start by setting up a database. By selecting the slash function and choosing database, you can create a new database page.

Within the database page, you have the option to customize it according to your needs. You can add different columns based on the type of content you want to organize. For example, you can categorize the content into articles, podcasts, books, tweets, etc.

One approach to capturing content and adding it to your database is by using the Readwise app, which seamlessly integrates with Notion. This allows you to save highlights or summaries from various sources such as articles, podcasts, and even tweets directly into your Notion database. Additionally, the Readwise app offers features like capturing Kindle highlights and podcast summaries, making it a versatile tool for content organization.

Another effective way to capture content is by using the "Save to Notion" Chrome extension. This extension enables you to save web pages along with their URLs and content directly to your Notion database. This feature becomes particularly useful when utilizing Notion's AI capabilities, such as the Q&A feature, where you can ask questions about your database and receive answers based on the information you've captured.

Moreover, by creating relationships between different databases within Notion, you can easily link related content and resources. This interconnected
Integrating Readwise with Notion for content categorization:

Readwise has native integration with Notion, making it a seamless process to organize and categorize the content you capture. First, you will have to choose your workspace where you want Readwise's database to be created. Once that is set up, you have a couple of settings to play with to customize your database.

The database categorizes your content into articles, podcasts, books, and even tweets. It captures anything that you highlight across the internet, ensuring that all valuable information is saved. Moreover, it also captures your highlights from Kindle and even highlights from podcasts.

One of the most efficient ways to capture highlights or summaries from podcasts is by installing the Snippet app. By using this app, you can create a highlight of a podcast while listening. Simply tap three times on your airpods, and the app will create a highlight, send it to Readwise, and then store it in your Notion database.

By integrating Readwise with Notion, you can easily organize and access your captured content, ensuring that it is not just stored but also utilized effectively in your projects and content creation process.
The most brilliant way to capture highlights or summaries from the podcast is by installing an app like Snippet. This app allows you to make a highlight of a podcast while you're listening. All you need to do is tap three times on your AirPods, and it will create the highlight. The highlight is then sent to Readwise, which in turn sends it to Notion. This seamless integration makes it incredibly easy to capture and organize content from podcasts.

Now, of course, it's essential to not just hoard the information that you capture but to actually do something with it. You need to develop systems for how you will review that information and what actions you will take as a result. When I capture information, I like to think of it as ideas floating in an ether. These ideas could either die on their own, serve as inspiration, or evolve into a whole piece of content. 

Our system includes a central database that is connected to all the different channels we use, as well as individual databases. This interconnected setup allows for easy referencing and collaboration. For example, if I'm working on a video about robots and I captured information about Amazon robots, I can easily link those resources to my project. This way, anyone in my team can see and access the information related to that project. 

Additionally, we have set up databases for specific content types such as articles, podcasts, books, and even tweets. Readwise categorizes the content highlights we capture into these categories, making
When it comes to reviewing and utilizing the information that has been captured within a team, it is crucial to establish systematic approaches that ensure the valuable data is not only stored but also actively used to drive innovation and productivity. Here are a few key strategies that can optimize the review and utilization process:

1. **Daily Review and Note-taking:** Dedicate specific time daily for team members to revisit the captured information, leave notes, and potentially create new projects or ideas based on the insights gained. This daily review can help in ensuring that the information does not get overlooked and can spark new initiatives.

2. **Weekly Team Review and Sharing:** Schedule regular team meetings where team members can come together to share the information they have captured, discuss ideas, and collaborate on potential projects. This collaborative review process can lead to cross-pollination of ideas and facilitate a more holistic approach to utilizing the captured information.

3. **Utilizing Notion AI Features:** Leveraging the AI features of tools like Notion can enhance the review process significantly. Notion's AI capabilities can help in quickly finding specific information, tracking deadlines, project statuses, and much more. By asking questions about the entire database, team members can get customized insights that can streamline decision-making and project management.

4. **Customizable Workflows:** Notion's customizable nature allows each team member to work in a way that suits their preferences. This flexibility ensures that individuals can manage and utilize the captured information according to their unique workflow. Customized workflows can
When it comes to creating and managing projects and tasks in Notion, it's important to have a structured approach. Notion offers a robust system for organizing and tracking your projects, tasks, and ideas efficiently. 

One key feature in Notion is the ability to set up databases for different purposes. To create a new database in Notion, start by going to your account and creating a new page. Then, use the slash command to call the database function and select the full-page option. Name your database accordingly, and you can set up templates to streamline the process.

For capturing content, Notion offers integration with various tools like Readwise and Chrome extensions. Readwise, for instance, allows you to capture content from different sources and organize it within your Notion database. The Chrome extension "Save to Notion" is another useful tool for capturing content directly from web pages, which can be beneficial for utilizing Notion's AI features like Q&A.

In addition to capturing content, Notion also allows you to create relationships between different databases. This feature can be handy for linking related resources, ideas, or projects together. By establishing these connections, you can easily navigate and reference information across different channels within Notion.

Furthermore, setting up dedicated time daily or weekly for reviewing and sharing ideas with your team can enhance collaboration and productivity. Leveraging Notion's AI features can help in extracting valuable insights from your database and optimizing your workflow.

Overall, Notion's customizable features, seamless integrations
One of the key aspects of Notion AI that sets it apart is its ability to assist in querying databases and aiding content creation. The AI features of Notion allow users to ask questions about their entire database, enabling them to quickly find specific information in a smart and efficient way. This functionality is not only useful for basic searches, but also for more complex inquiries such as team reading habits, project deadlines, project statuses, and much more.
