How to connect Code and iLovePDF
Create a New Scenario to Connect Code and iLovePDF
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 Code, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Code or iLovePDF will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Code or iLovePDF, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Now, click the iLovePDF node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your iLovePDF settings. Authentication allows you to use iLovePDF through Latenode.
Configure the Code and iLovePDF Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Code and iLovePDF Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Code, iLovePDF, 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 Code and iLovePDF integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Code and iLovePDF (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Code and iLovePDF
Code + iLovePDF + Google Drive: A custom script processes a file. iLovePDF then optimizes the processed file. Finally, the optimized PDF is stored in a specific Google Drive folder, determined by the script's output.
iLovePDF + Code + Slack: When a new file is added to iLovePDF for processing, a custom script executes actions based on the processed file, and then a Slack notification is sent to a designated channel, informing users that the PDF processing is complete.
