Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring ConvertAPI, Creatomate, 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 β€œRun once” and triggering an event to check if the ConvertAPI and Creatomate integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ConvertAPI and Creatomate (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 Creatomate

ConvertAPI + Creatomate + Google Drive: Automatically convert documents uploaded to a specific folder into video format using ConvertAPI. Then, utilize Creatomate to add intro/outro templates, and finally upload the completed video to Google Drive for easy sharing and access.

Creatomate + ConvertAPI + Airtable: Triggered by a new record in Airtable, this automation uses Creatomate to render a video based on a template populated with data from the record. The rendered video is then converted to a different format using ConvertAPI and the final result logged back into Airtable.
