Make Integration

Connecting Make (a visual automation platform, formerly Integromat) lets ScaleFlow work with scenarios in your Make organization. AI agents can discover, inspect, and run scenarios through MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools.

Use this integration when you want to:

  • Let ScaleFlow AI agents orchestrate workflows already built in Make.
  • Combine customer conversations (Inbox, Smart Assistant) with multi-app automation in Make (CRM, messaging, operations, and more).
  • Leverage Make's 3,000+ ready-made integrations without building custom connectors.

What is Make?​

Make (formerly Integromat) is a cloud-based visual automation platform. You drag and drop modules on a canvas to connect apps, services, and APIs together without writing code.

In Make, each automation flow is called a scenario. A scenario can:

  • Receive events from an app (for example: a new form submission, incoming email, or webhook).
  • Process or transform data (filter, map fields, if/else conditions).
  • Send results to another app (CRM, Google Sheets, Slack, email, database, and more).

Make supports 3,000+ apps and services out of the box. Businesses commonly use Make to:

  • Sync data between CRM, ERP, and marketing tools.
  • Automatically create tickets, send internal alerts, or email customers.
  • Process orders, invoices, and scheduled reports.
  • Connect internal systems through HTTP, webhooks, or custom APIs.

Make terminology to know​

TermMeaning
ScenarioA visual automation flow in Make, made up of connected modules.
ModuleOne step in a scenario (for example: read a Google Sheet, send Slack, call a webhook).
OrganizationYour workspace in Make, containing scenarios, teams, and access permissions.
API tokenAn authentication credential that lets external systems (such as ScaleFlow) call the Make API on behalf of an organization.
Cloud instanceThe Make server region (for example eu1, us1), depending on your account or organization.

Note: Make does not replace ScaleFlow. Make is strong at multi-app automation; ScaleFlow is strong at customer conversations, Inbox, AI agents, and support team coordination.


What do Make and ScaleFlow do together?​

The two platforms complement each other:

ScaleFlowMake
Primary roleBring together multi-channel messages, Inbox, AI agents, tickets, and contactsAutomate workflows across many apps and APIs
Typical dataCustomer conversations, support context, KnowledgeCRM, sheets, email, Slack, ERP, webhooks
Who actsSupport staff, AI Assistant, AI AgentScenarios running automatically or triggered by an agent

When Make is connected to ScaleFlow:

  1. ScaleFlow handles customer conversations (LINE, WhatsApp, Facebook, and more).
  2. The AI Agent in ScaleFlow decides when an external action is needed.
  3. The agent calls MCP tools to list, inspect, or run Make scenarios.
  4. Make performs automation in CRM, sheets, email, Slack, or other systems.
  5. Results return so the agent can continue replying to the customer or update internal work.

Real-world examples:

  • A customer asks about order status on LINE -> the AI agent collects the order ID -> runs a Make scenario to look up Shopify/ERP -> replies in Inbox.
  • A new ticket is created -> the agent triggers a Make scenario to send a Slack alert to the operations team.
  • A customer confirms an appointment -> a Make scenario creates a Google Calendar event and writes the contact to HubSpot.

This integration is especially useful when your business already has Make scenarios and wants ScaleFlow AI to reuse them instead of rebuilding from scratch.


Before You Start​

Prepare the following:

  • A Make account with access to the organization you want to connect.
  • Permission to manage integrations in ScaleFlow (you can see the Integrations menu and click Connect).
  • A Make API token — ScaleFlow uses token authentication, not OAuth.
  • About 5-10 minutes for the first connection.

Note: Each ScaleFlow connection is tied to one Make organization. If you have Production, Staging, or multiple teams/regions, create a separate connection for each organization.


Step Overview​

StepWhereWhat to do
1MakeCreate and copy an API token
2ScaleFlowOpen the Make page under Integrations and click Connect
3ScaleFlowPaste the token and confirm the connection
4ScaleFlowReview workspace details and Test connection
5ScaleFlow(Optional) Attach the Make connection to an AI Agent to use MCP tools

Step 1 - Get an API Token in Make​

  1. Sign in to Make at https://make.com.

  2. Click your avatar in the top-right corner -> select Profile.

    Make Profile menu

  3. In the left sidebar, select API access (or API, depending on your UI version).

    Make API access sidebar

  4. Click Add token and give it a clear name, such as ScaleFlow Production.

    Make Add token dialog

  5. Copy the token immediately after creation — Make usually shows it only once.

    Make copy API token

Security: The token grants access to your Make organization. Do not share it publicly or paste it into unencrypted chat or email. If the token is exposed, delete the old token in Make, create a new one, then Reconnect in ScaleFlow.


Step 2 - Connect Make in ScaleFlow​

  1. In ScaleFlow, open the left menu -> Integrations.

    ScaleFlow Integrations menu

  2. Find the Make card under Third-party Integrations -> click Connect.

  3. On the setup screen:

    • Read How to get your Make API token (you can expand it directly on the form).
    • Paste your API token into the API token field.

    Make setup form in ScaleFlow

  4. Click Connect.

ScaleFlow will:

  • Validate the token with the Make API.
  • Automatically detect the cloud instance (for example eu1, eu2, us1, us2).
  • Fetch organization and user details and set the workspace label from the Make organization name.

After a successful connection, you are redirected to the Make connections list.

Step 3 - Manage the Connection​

Open Integrations -> Make and select a connection to view its details. There are two main tabs:

Display tab​

Use this tab to:

  • Change the workspace label in ScaleFlow (for example: Make Production, Make Staging EU).
  • View read-only information from Make:
    • Organization and Organization ID
    • Cloud instance (Make host, for example eu1.make.com)
    • API token owner (the user who created the token)
    • Connected on (connection timestamp)

Make connection Display tab

Organization and instance fields come from the authenticated token and cannot be edited directly in ScaleFlow.

AI and Automation tab​

This tab shows:

  • An overview of how to use Make with AI agents.
  • Scenario tools for AI agents — the MCP tools Make provides.
  • Recommended automation patterns — suggested flows such as scenario discovery, webhook bridge, and multi-app agent orchestration.

Make connection AI and Automation tab

Click Build an AI agent to create a new agent and attach the integration.

Quick actions on the connection list​

ActionWhen to use it
Test connectionAfter connecting, or when you suspect the token expired or was revoked
ReconnectWhen you need to enter a new Make token
DisconnectTemporarily stop the connection (status becomes Disconnected)
DeletePermanently remove the connection from ScaleFlow (with a confirmation dialog)

Make connection quick actions


Step 4 - Attach Make to an AI Agent​

For an agent to actually call Make scenarios, add the connection to the agent:

  1. Open AI -> Agents and select an agent (or create a new one).

  2. In the Integrations section, click to add a connection.

  3. Select the active Make connection.

MCP Tools - What Can an Agent Do with Make?​

When the Make connection is active, ScaleFlow exposes the following tools to AI agents:

Make MCP scenario tools

List Visual Scenarios (make_list_scenarios)​

Lists scenarios in the linked Make organization.

ParameterDescription
limitMaximum number of scenarios to return (default: 10)
offsetNumber of scenarios to skip for pagination (default: 0)

Example use: The agent surveys active scenarios before suggesting or triggering the right flow.

Inspect Scenario (make_get_scenario)​

Shows details for one scenario by ID.

ParameterRequiredDescription
scenarioIdYesThe scenario ID in Make (numeric)

Example use: The agent reads the scenario structure, required inputs, and status before running it.

Run Scenario (make_run_scenario)​

Runs an active scenario in Make.

ParameterRequiredDescription
scenarioIdYesThe scenario ID to run
dataNoInput object when the scenario requires parameters
responsiveNotrue (default): wait for the scenario to finish (up to ~40 seconds) and return status; false: return executionId immediately
callbackUrlNoURL to receive a POST callback for non-responsive runs; ignored when responsive is true

Example use: The agent runs a scenario to sync CRM data, send a Slack notification, or trigger a Make module chain after collecting enough information from the customer.

Instructions tip: In the agent Instructions, specify when scenarios may be run, which scenario IDs are allowed, or how the agent should choose a scenario (for example: always list first, and only run approved scenarios).


1. Discover the scenario landscape​

The agent calls List Visual Scenarios to map active scenarios, then responds or routes based on conversation context.

2. Webhook bridge to scenario​

Events from ScaleFlow (new messages, tickets, contacts) are forwarded to a Make scenario through HTTP/webhook — useful when the Make scenario already includes a Webhooks module.

3. Multi-app agent orchestration​

The ScaleFlow agent handles the conversation; when CRM, sheet, email, or other tool actions are needed, it calls Run Scenario so Make handles the rest across 3,000+ apps.


Real-World Workflow​

  1. An admin creates a Make API token for the Production organization.
  2. The admin connects Make in ScaleFlow and Test connection succeeds.
  3. The admin creates an AI agent named Operations Assistant and attaches the Make connection.
  4. The admin writes Instructions: the agent may list scenarios and may run only specific scenario IDs after customer confirmation.
  5. The admin runs Test Version with sample questions, then Publish.
  6. The agent is attached to Smart Assistant or an Inbox flow.
  7. When the Make token expires, the admin Reconnects and tests again.

Quick Troubleshooting​

Error: Make API token is required​

  • The token field is empty or contains only spaces. Paste the full token again.

Error: Invalid Make API token​

  • The token is wrong, deleted in Make, or belongs to an inaccessible organization.
  • Create a new token in Make, then Reconnect in ScaleFlow.

Connection succeeds but MCP tools are missing​

  • Open the AI and Automation tab. If it is empty, use Test connection or Reconnect.
  • Make sure the status is Connected, not Error or Disconnected.

Agent cannot run a scenario​

  • The scenario in Make must be active (ON).

    Make scenario active toggle

  • Confirm the scenarioId is correct (from Inspect Scenario or the Make editor URL).

  • If the scenario requires input, pass all required values in data.

  • For long-running scenarios, consider responsive: false and callbackUrl.

Multiple organizations or regions (EU, US)​

  • ScaleFlow automatically detects the instance (eu1, eu2, us1, us2) when validating the token.
  • Each organization should have its own ScaleFlow connection with a clear workspace label.

Integrations menu is missing​

  • Ask your administrator for permission to view or manage integrations.

Best Practices​

  • Use clear connection names such as Make Production and Make Staging EU.
  • Create a dedicated token for ScaleFlow and revoke it when no longer needed.
  • Run Test connection immediately after connecting or changing the token.
  • In agent Instructions, limit which scenarios may be run to avoid triggering sensitive automation unintentionally.
  • In Make, disable or delete test scenarios that are no longer needed.
