Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Cloudinary, Netlify, 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 Cloudinary and Netlify integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Cloudinary and Netlify (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Cloudinary and Netlify

Netlify + Cloudinary + Google Drive: After a successful Netlify deployment, this automation backs up all recently uploaded Cloudinary assets to a specified Google Drive folder, ensuring data redundancy and easy access to media files.

Netlify + Cloudinary + Slack: When a new Netlify deployment succeeds, the automation checks for recently uploaded images to Cloudinary using a specified tag. If new tagged images are found, a Slack message is sent to a designated channel to notify the team about the new asset usage, maintaining brand consistency.
