Save and Activate the Scenario

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

Google Drive + OCR Space + SmartSuite: When a new invoice is uploaded to Google Drive, the text is extracted using OCR Space, and a new record is created in SmartSuite to track the financial information.

Google Drive + OCR Space + Slack: When a new contract is uploaded to Google Drive, OCR Space extracts the text from the contract. A summary can then be sent to a legal team channel in Slack.
