How to connect OCR Space and Microsoft Teams
Create a New Scenario to Connect OCR Space and Microsoft Teams
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 Microsoft Teams will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OCR Space or Microsoft Teams, 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.

- 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 OCR Space, Microsoft Teams, 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 Microsoft Teams integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OCR Space and Microsoft Teams (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 Microsoft Teams
OCR Space + Google Drive + Microsoft Teams: When a document is processed by OCR Space to extract text, the extracted text is saved as a new file in Google Drive, and a message with a link to the file is sent to a specified Microsoft Teams channel.
Microsoft Teams + OCR Space + Airtable: When a new message is posted to a Microsoft Teams channel, OCR Space extracts text from images within the message, and the extracted text is then added as a new record to an Airtable database.
