Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Paypal, OCR Space, 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 Paypal and OCR Space integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Paypal and OCR Space (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Paypal and OCR Space
Paypal + OCR Space + Google Sheets: When a new payment is received in Paypal, use OCR to extract data from an associated receipt image (if available). Log the payment details and extracted receipt data in a new row in a Google Sheet.
