Discover how to combine Imagen 3 and Google Sheets for rapid image creation. Automate your workflow and generate visuals in bulk.
Have you ever wished you could create a bunch of images without the hassle of typing in each prompt one by one? Well, Stéphane Giron has shared a clever solution using Google’s Imagen 3, Google Sheets, and Apps Script to streamline this process. While Gemini for Workspace is rolling out to more users and includes Imagen 3 for image creation in apps like Slides and the Gemini side panel, it doesn’t offer an easy way to create images in bulk. That’s where this method comes in. Instead of making images one at a time, this approach allows you to generate multiple images at once, saving you time and effort.
To get started with this method, you’ll need a Google Cloud Project and creating a service account (see the Build an AI slides reviewer with Gemini tutorial for instructions on setting this up). Once that’s set up, you create a Google Sheet with a column for your text prompts, and another for the links to the generated images. The images are automatically saved into a specific folder in your Google Drive.
The real magic happens with Apps Script. It uses Vertex AI to connect with the Imagen 3 model. The script reads each prompt from your sheet, sends it to Imagen 3 to create an image, and then stores the image in Google Drive. It also helpfully adds the image’s link back into the Google Sheet.
