Create a New Scenario to Connect Code and Motion
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 Motion will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Code or Motion, 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.
Code
Add the Motion Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Code node, select Motion from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Motion.

Authenticate Motion
Now, click the Motion node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Motion settings. Authentication allows you to use Motion through Latenode.
Configure the Code and Motion Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Code, Motion, 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 Motion integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Code and Motion (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Code + Slack: When a new message is posted to a designated Slack channel (indicating a critical code error), run a predefined JavaScript code to diagnose the error and send a detailed report back to the channel.
Motion + Jira: When a task is updated in Motion, execute JavaScript code to calculate the time spent on the task and automatically create an issue with that time information in Jira. This accurately tracks time spent on Jira projects.
