Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google docs, Captions, 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

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google docs and Captions (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Google Docs + Captions + YouTube: When a new Google Docs document is created, the text is extracted and used by Captions to generate a video. The generated video is then automatically uploaded to YouTube.
Captions + Google Docs + Slack: When Captions finishes generating subtitles for a video, the subtitle text is saved to a new Google Docs document. A notification is then sent to a Slack channel to inform the team.
