Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Captions, PDFMonkey, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Captions and PDFMonkey (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Captions and PDFMonkey
Captions + PDFMonkey + Google Drive: When a video is translated using Captions, a PDF document is generated with PDFMonkey using the translated transcript. This PDF is then saved to a designated folder in Google Drive for archiving purposes.
PDFMonkey + Captions + Slack: When a new PDF document is generated by PDFMonkey, this automation checks the status of captioning through Captions. Once captioning is complete (or if it's not needed), a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel.
