How It Works
The screenshot workflow initiates with a manual trigger, allowing precise control over screenshot capture. A function node processes the initial input, preparing screenshot parameters. The workflow then leverages HTTP requests to capture screenshots, with merge nodes combining data streams. AWS SES enables email notifications, while Dropbox provides cloud storage. Advanced error handling nodes like 'Stop and Error' ensure robust performance, automatically managing potential exceptions and maintaining workflow integrity.
