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

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

Set Up the Quickbase and CloudConvert 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 Quickbase, CloudConvert, 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 Quickbase and CloudConvert integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Quickbase and CloudConvert (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Quickbase and CloudConvert
Quickbase + CloudConvert + Google Drive: When a new file is uploaded to Quickbase, it is sent to CloudConvert for conversion to a specified format. The converted file is then uploaded to Google Drive in a designated folder.
Quickbase + CloudConvert + Slack: When a file conversion is initiated from Quickbase using CloudConvert, and the conversion job finishes, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel.
