Save and Activate the Scenario

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

OCR Space + Harvest + Google Sheets: When a new invoice image is processed by OCR Space, the extracted data is used to create a time entry in Harvest. The time entry details are then saved to a Google Sheet for tracking and reporting.

Harvest + OCR Space + QuickBooks: When a new time entry is created in Harvest for a contractor, invoice data is extracted from a related image using OCR Space. This data is used to create a bill in QuickBooks for contractor payment.
