How to connect OCR Space and GitLab

Create a New Scenario to Connect OCR Space and GitLab

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 GitLab will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OCR Space or GitLab, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the OCR Space Node

Select the OCR Space node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario

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

OCR Space + GitLab + Slack: This automation extracts text from scanned code documentation images using OCR Space, commits the extracted text to a GitLab repository, and then sends a notification message to a designated Slack channel to inform developers about the committed changes.

GitLab + OCR Space + Jira: When new code is committed to a GitLab repository, this automation scans related images using OCR Space to extract text. If issues are identified based on the extracted text, a new issue is created in Jira for tracking and resolution.
