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

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Mailhook, 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 Mailhook and OCR Space integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Mailhook 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 Mailhook and OCR Space
Mailhook + OCR Space + Google Sheets: When a new email is received by Mailhook, the attached image (invoice) is sent to OCR Space to convert it into text. The extracted text is then added as a new row in a Google Sheets spreadsheet.
Mailhook + OCR Space + Airtable: When a new email arrives in Mailhook, the attached image (invoice) is sent to OCR Space for text recognition. The resulting text is then used to create a new record in Airtable.
