Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring ConvertAPI, Firecrawl, 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 Firecrawl integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ConvertAPI and Firecrawl (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 Firecrawl

Firecrawl + ConvertAPI + Google Drive: This automation flow starts when Firecrawl crawls a specified URL. The crawled website is then converted to a PDF file using ConvertAPI. Finally, the generated PDF is uploaded to a designated folder in Google Drive.

Firecrawl + ConvertAPI + Slack: When Firecrawl scrapes a webpage and detects changes, ConvertAPI converts the scraped website content to a PDF. This PDF is then provided as context for a notification sent to a specified Slack channel, alerting users to the detected changes.
