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

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Jotform, OCR Space, 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 Jotform and OCR Space integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Jotform and OCR Space (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Jotform and OCR Space
Jotform + OCR Space + Google Sheets: When a new submission is received in Jotform, the attached image is processed by OCR Space to extract text. The extracted text, along with other submission data, is then added as a new row in a Google Sheet.
OCR Space + Jotform + Slack: When an image is processed by OCR Space, create a new submission in Jotform, and send a message to Slack with the submission details, notifying users that a new form can be submitted with extracted data.
