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

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

Set Up the Nimble and OCR Space 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 Nimble, 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 Nimble and OCR Space integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Nimble 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 Nimble and OCR Space
OCR Space + Google Sheets + Nimble: When OCR Space extracts text from an image, the data is formatted and added as a new contact in Nimble, and then the contact details are saved to a Google Sheet.
OCR Space + Nimble + Slack: When OCR Space detects text in an image, a new contact is created in Nimble. Then, a message is sent to a Slack channel to notify the sales team about the new contact.
