How to connect PDF.co and Recut
Create a New Scenario to Connect PDF.co and Recut
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 PDF.co, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, PDF.co or Recut will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find PDF.co or Recut, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the PDF.co Node
Select the PDF.co node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring PDF.co, Recut, 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 PDF.co and Recut integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between PDF.co and Recut (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect PDF.co and Recut
Google Drive + PDF.co + Recut: When a new PDF file is added to Google Drive, PDF.co converts it into text, and Recut uses this text to automatically edit a corresponding video. The video editing is manual and offline, there is no way to automate this.
Recut + PDF.co + Slack: After Recut generates a video transcript from a PDF.co text conversion, a notification is sent to a specified Slack channel, informing the team about the new video and its generated links.
