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

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

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

Authenticate PostgreSQL
Now, click the PostgreSQL node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your PostgreSQL settings. Authentication allows you to use PostgreSQL through Latenode.
Configure the Firecrawl and PostgreSQL Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Firecrawl and PostgreSQL Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Firecrawl, PostgreSQL, 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 Firecrawl and PostgreSQL integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Firecrawl and PostgreSQL (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Firecrawl and PostgreSQL
Firecrawl + PostgreSQL + Slack: This automation flow starts by crawling a specified URL using Firecrawl. The extracted data is then saved to a PostgreSQL database. If significant changes are detected in the crawled data compared to the existing database entries, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel to alert the team.
PostgreSQL + Firecrawl + Google Sheets: This flow triggers when a new or updated row is added to a PostgreSQL database. The flow then uses Firecrawl to search a website based on keywords from the new or updated row. The search results are then added as a row to a Google Sheets spreadsheet, providing a report of keyword occurrences on the website.
