How to connect Firecrawl and Render
Create a New Scenario to Connect Firecrawl and Render
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 Render will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Firecrawl or Render, 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.

Authenticate Render
Now, click the Render node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Render settings. Authentication allows you to use Render through Latenode.
Configure the Firecrawl and Render 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 Render 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, Render, 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 Render integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Firecrawl and Render (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 Render
Firecrawl + Render + Slack: When Firecrawl detects changes on a monitored website using the 'Scrape Website' action, it triggers a redeploy in Render using the 'Trigger Deploy' action. Once the redeploy is initiated, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel using the 'Send Public Channel Message' action to inform the team.
Render + Firecrawl + Google Sheets: After a website deployment is triggered in Render using 'Trigger Deploy', Firecrawl automatically audits the deployed website using the 'Crawl URL' action. The results of the audit are then saved in Google Sheets using the 'Add Multiple Rows' action for SEO tracking and analysis.
