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

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring ConvertAPI, Cloudinary, 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 ConvertAPI and Cloudinary integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ConvertAPI and Cloudinary (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect ConvertAPI and Cloudinary
ConvertAPI + Cloudinary + Google Drive: When a new file is uploaded to Google Drive, ConvertAPI converts it to an image format. Cloudinary then optimizes the image and uploads it to Cloudinary for storage and delivery.
Cloudinary + ConvertAPI + Airtable: When a new resource is uploaded to Cloudinary, ConvertAPI generates a thumbnail. The image URL and thumbnail URL are then logged in an Airtable record.
