How to connect OCR Space and Strava

Create a New Scenario to Connect OCR Space and Strava

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 Strava will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OCR Space or Strava, 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.

Set Up the OCR Space and Strava Integration

Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:

  • Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
  • 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, Strava, 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 Strava integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OCR Space and Strava (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 Strava

OCR Space + Strava + Google Sheets: Extracts workout data from images using OCR Space, uploads it as a new activity to Strava, and then logs the Strava activity details in a Google Sheet.

OCR Space + Strava + Todoist: Scans a race bib image with OCR Space to extract the bib number, uploads race data to Strava, and creates a Todoist task to follow up on race performance.
