Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring OCR Space, Firecrawl, 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 Firecrawl integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OCR Space and Firecrawl (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 Firecrawl

Firecrawl + OCR Space + Google Sheets: This automation scrapes a website using Firecrawl, extracts text from images found on the crawled pages using OCR Space, and then saves the extracted text into a Google Sheet.

Firecrawl + OCR Space + Slack: The automation monitors a competitor's website using Firecrawl, extracts text from newly identified images using OCR Space, and then sends a notification to a Slack channel about these content updates.
