How to connect Home Assistant and OCRSpace

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

To add the OCRSpace app to the workflow select the HTTP Request node and use the generic authentication method to make custom API calls to OCRSpace. Configure OCRSpace and Home Assistant one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.
