How to connect CloudConvert and OCR Space
Create a New Scenario to Connect CloudConvert and OCR Space
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a CloudConvert, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, CloudConvert or OCR Space will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find CloudConvert or OCR Space, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the CloudConvert Node
Select the CloudConvert node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring CloudConvert, OCR Space, 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
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the CloudConvert and OCR Space integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between CloudConvert and OCR Space (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
