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

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

Database
Configure the Database
Click on the Database node to configure it. You can modify the Database URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the OpenAI Image Generation Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Database node, select OpenAI Image Generation from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within OpenAI Image Generation.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Database, OpenAI Image Generation, 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 Database and OpenAI Image Generation integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Database and OpenAI Image Generation (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Database and OpenAI Image Generation
Database + OpenAI Image Generation + Slack: When a new entry is created in the database, an image is generated by OpenAI based on the database entry's content. The generated image and related entry details are then posted to a specified Slack channel.
OpenAI Image Generation + Database + Airtable: When an image is generated by OpenAI, it is stored in a database. Then, a new record is created in Airtable, with a link to the image stored in the database for visual project management.
