How to connect OCR Space and PDFMonkey
Create a New Scenario to Connect OCR Space and PDFMonkey
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 PDFMonkey will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OCR Space or PDFMonkey, 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, PDFMonkey, 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 PDFMonkey integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OCR Space and PDFMonkey (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 PDFMonkey
OCR Space + PDFMonkey + Airtable: When a new image is received, OCR Space extracts the data. PDFMonkey generates a PDF archive document, and Airtable logs the extracted data.
PDFMonkey + OCR Space + Google Drive: PDFMonkey generates a new document. OCR Space extracts the text from this PDF document. Finally, Google Drive uploads both the original document and the extracted data.
