How to connect OCR Space and Database

Create a New Scenario to Connect OCR Space and Database

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

Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring OCR Space, Database, 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 OCR Space and Database integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OCR Space and Database (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect OCR Space and Database
