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

- 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.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Motion, Fotor, 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 Motion and Fotor integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Motion and Fotor (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Motion and Fotor
Fotor + Google Drive: When a new AI headshot is generated in Fotor, it is automatically uploaded to a specified folder in Google Drive for easy access and sharing.
Motion + Fotor + Slack: When a task is completed in Motion, use Fotor to generate an AI headshot, and then post a message in a Slack channel to notify the team about the newly created headshot.
