Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring PDFMonkey, Shippo, 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 β€œRun once” and triggering an event to check if the PDFMonkey and Shippo integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between PDFMonkey and Shippo (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect PDFMonkey and Shippo

PDFMonkey + Shippo + Airtable: When a document is generated in PDFMonkey, it triggers the creation of a shipping order in Shippo. The shipping label details and Shippo order ID are then recorded in Airtable.

Shopify + PDFMonkey + Shippo: When a new order is placed in Shopify, a return shipping label is automatically generated in PDFMonkey using order details. This PDF is then retrievable to use with Shippo for returns.
