Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring PDF.co, Render, 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 Render integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between PDF.co and Render (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 Render

PDF.co + Render + Google Drive: After a successful deployment on Render, a PDF report is generated using PDF.co. This report is then archived in a specified Google Drive folder for record-keeping.

Render + PDF.co + Slack: When a new application is successfully deployed on Render, PDF.co generates a PDF report about the deployment. A notification, including the PDF report, is then sent to a designated Slack channel to inform the team.
