Make

Overview

Make is a visual automation platform where you build scenarios by placing modules on a canvas and linking them together. It supports branching with routers, looping over lists with iterators, and transforming data between steps with built-in functions. Scenarios can run on a schedule, from a webhook, or when a connected app records a change. Make suits builders who want more control over data structure than a simple trigger-and-action tool offers, and who are willing to learn its mapping syntax. It is a hosted service, so there is no server to run. Usage is measured in operations, so high-volume scenarios can become costly. Very large or highly custom workloads may outgrow the visual model.
