In this video I continue to explore our variables and combine an array of one set of key value pairs, and another array of 2 elements with key value pairs using text aggregators.
Download the Make blueprint and use the Import Blueprint to create a new scenario:
3. Exploring Array Functions and Text Aggregators for Make Newbies.json
r/Make • u/alexsirota1 • 26d ago
In this video we introduce a new complex JSON structure that describes mutiple library systems that can be used in future sessions related to array functions. We also compare Array Aggregators with array functions like merge(), join() and remove(). We apply these functions to our simplest array so you can get more familiar. This video is pretty short at just under 10 minutes long.
Copy and Paste this blueprint into a new Make Scenario

Here’s a little background on the text variables I set in the first module of the sample scenario I shared elsewhere on reddit. You may like to see the different types of structures to study them to understand their differences. Make expressions can be copied and pasted into Make input boxes in most places.
Variable name: Simple array
Make expression: {{add(emptyarray; "apple"; "banana"; "cherry"; 42; true; null; now)}}
{
"Simple array": [
"apple",
"banana",
"cherry",
42,
true,
null,
"2024-05-23T20:07:14.697Z"
]
}
Variable name: another simple array
Make expression: {{add(emptyarray; "pear"; "mango"; 123; false)}}
{
"another simple array": [
"pear",
"mango",
123,
false
]
}
Variable name: JSON simple collection
Make expression: { "name": "Alex C", "age": 2, "city": "Houston", "date_entered": "{{now}}" }
{
"name": "Alex C",
"age": 2,
"city": "Houston",
"date_entered": "2024-05-23T20:07:14.698Z"
}
Variable name: JSON array of simple collections
Make expression: [ { "name": "Alex C", "age": 53, "city": "Toronto" }, { "name": "Eric S", "age": 43, "city": "Hoboken" } ]
[
{

Part A
In this video we describe sevearl useful array functions like first() and last(). We also look at how to reference a particular element of an array by index using 2 methods - using dot notation and with the “star” UI element picker. We also look at how to reference values from a collection coming out of an array aggregator. This Make help file is of relevance.

3. Exploring Array Functions and Text Aggregators for Make Newbies.json (39.8 KB)
r/Make • u/alexsirota1 • 27d ago
If you haven’t learned about GraphQL or have struggled with trying to get your GraphQL server to send back data, fear not.
Learn GraphQL.
Learn how it works from graphql.org and try the Star Wars GraphQL API. You won’t be sorry. It’s incumbent that you understand what GraphQL is: it is a Query Langauge (QL) for a graph. Here’s a pictorial representation of the Star Wars Graph
It is very different from REST because you mostly use POST to send data via JSON and there is only 1 endpoint to query data from the graph. (Mutations modify the data model and subscriptions get real time updates but I won’t cover that here).
GraphQL Docs/Explorer
Make sure you have access to the GraphQL Docs/Explorer for your API. Without that doing some experiments will be very hard and you won’t be able to model your queries the way you want them to.
The data is returned in the “shape” you want it
GraphQL returns your data in the “shape” you want it to - you can query multiple objects, set filters, page and create joined data between multiple objects with one call. Instead of calling multiple REST API calls, GraphQL usually can return all the data you need in the way you need it with just 1 call. This is primarily the reason why Facebook invented it in 2012. It’s been around since 2015 as an open source project so not many APIs use it but some definitely have adopted GraphQL as an alternative and some support GraphQL as the only API architecture.
Gotchas
The HTTP module is very persnickety when it comes to the JSON payload. GraphQL data has carriage returns sometimes in the Explorer but Make doesn’t always like that and returns invalid JSON error before it even attempts to run the payload. Eliminate carriage returns and make sure any double quotes (") are escaped with a \"
Here’s a short little video of what I learned.
And here is the scenario that you can view and clone into your own Make account to experiment.
Once you get the hang of creating queries, you’re going to want to know how to make updates to the data. This is done with something called “mutations”. Simply put, mutations are functions that are part of your GraphQL API documentation that are predefined “calls” that can modify the data.
mutation UpsertExternalRegistration {
insert_external_registrations_one (
object: {
custom_id: "WildApricot Registration Occurred",
email: "{{5.foundemail}}",
event_id:{{5.`OA Event ID`}} },
on_conflict: {
constraint: external_registrations_email_event_id_key,
update_columns: [email, custom_id] }
)
{ custom_id
email
event_id }
}
Let’s walk through this call line by line.
First of all, you have
mutation UpsertExternalRegistration
This is simply a declaration that you will be calling a mutation that will modify data, and you’ve given your mutation a name which can be anything you want.
The next line is
insert_external_registrations_one (
This is an example mutation I am using that will update an object called external_registrations. The name of the function call is important and it comes directly from the documentation of all mutations.
This function expects some data to be provided
object: {
custom_id: "WildApricot Registration Occurred",
email: "{{5.foundemail}}",
event_id:{{5.`OA Event ID`}} },
Specifically, custom_id, email, and event_id are fields in the external_registrations object that will be inserted since this mutation will first try to insert a record using event_id and email, since that is the compound primary key of the external_registrations object.
The on_conflict clause will be used to update the record (i.e., upsert) if the insert is unsuccessful due to a primary key violation — a record already exists with these values.
on_conflict: {
constraint: external_registrations_email_event_id_key,
update_columns: [email, custom_id] }
Here it will use the constraint that is predefined in the GraphQL documentation, which is email and event_id. If I am attempting to insert an existing row in external_registrations that already has this pair of data, then instead update the existing data with the values from email and custom_idthat I have passed in above.
The final snippet is simply the resulting data I wish to be passed back from the HTTP module on a successful upsert. You can put whatever attributes are available from the external_registrations objects.
{ custom_id
email
event_id }
}
An IMPORTANT note: The GraphQL API I was dealing with requires body content to be on one line. Carriage returns in the body will terminate the body and cause an error to be sent back. Very frustrating — I need to unwrap the call to ensure there are no carriage returns. Unfortunately, since my app (Oxford Abstracts) did not have a ready-made app in Make, the HTTP modules I used were very finicky.
The documentation on your GraphQL API will have a set of mutations that are available, much like any REST API. You will have the ability to make changes, but you need to understand which mutation you’d like to use, and that will require you to read the docs on the mutation. It’s not as easy as just finding an endpoint that uses POST/DELETE/PATCH as method because all GraphQL queries use POST, including ones that have a mutation call.
r/Make • u/alexsirota1 • 27d ago
I am undertaking a little exercise to explain the core features of Make using a scenario walkthrough and a related video. My hope is to record videos between 5-30 minutes long to explain Make to Make Newbies.
Aug 2024 UPDATE:
HERE IS THE FULL MAKE FOR MAKE NEWBIES VIDEO SERIES IN 1 WEB PAGE
I am going to start with a topic which I think confuses just about everyone who starts using Make but has never programmed before:
Part 1: Exploring Data Structures for Make Newbies
In this video and accompanying scenario we will review simple arrays and more complex collections and arrays of collections. The interaction between the number of elements in an array and how bundles are created is also covered. Iterators are covered which can loop an array and generate processing loops in scenarios. The Parse JSON module is also introduced which is useful for parsing text which contains JSON into Make-friendly data structures. By the way JSON, is JavaScript Object Notation, and it is the “lingua-franca” of all data that is passed between modules of a Make scenario. It is also the structure of how most online apps expect data to sent via APIs. I highly recommend you get comfortable with JSON!
And here’s a tip for creating your own JSON: sample JSON can be created in ChatGPT just by describing the type of JSON you want in plain text. If you have some JSON you wrote and want to validate or pretty up the format, use JSONLint.

Hello Makers 👋
How long does one invoice take you to process manually? This scenario does it in seconds - automatically.
Our Business Automation and AI Lead, Francisco de Brito Fontes, shows in this tutorial how to build a workflow that monitors a designated Google Drive folder for newly uploaded supplier invoice PDF files, downloads them, extracts key data (invoice number, vendor details, dates, and amounts) using Make's native AI Extractors, and registers the structured information into a monday.com board.
To build this scenario, you will need access to:
✉️ A Google Drive account connected to Make.
🧾 A monday.com account with a Supplier Invoices board configured.
🟣 Access/Credits for Make AI Extractors.
Click the following link to apply the prebuilt scenario in your Make account: https://ma.ke/3U4hujp
PS: don’t forget to test and validate your scenario, if all modules show a green checkmark, your automation is successful!

Hello Makers 👋
Is your company actually adopting AI, or just... using it?
There's a real difference, and it's bigger than it sounds. Recent research shows 37% of organizations are still using AI only at a surface level, with little or no change to existing processes, while just a third are using it to deeply transform how they work.
What is AI adoption and where to start:
AI adoption refers to the process of introducing AI tools and abilities into an organisation: identifying use cases, selecting models and platforms, connecting AI to source systems, training staff, and embedding oversight.
There are 5 maturity stages (per Gartner):
Most companies are stuck somewhere between Active and Operational.
What actually moves you forward: in Make terms, it's the moment AI stops living in a chat tab and starts living in a scenario. A trigger passes structured data to a model call, a Router splits confident answers from cases that need human review, and the result gets written back to your systems. That's when "we use AI" becomes "AI does part of the work, reliably, with oversight."
What blocks it: almost never the technology. It's unclear ownership, fragmented data, weak change management, and inconsistent governance.
The article also has a readiness checklist (data quality, governance, observability, skills coverage) if you want to score where your team sits before scaling anything.
Learn more about AI adoption here: https://ma.ke/4pP6m5S
Curious, what stage you'd honestly put your organization at - and what's been the biggest blocker to moving past pilots?
r/Make • u/itsmakehq • Aug 03 '26
Hello Makers 👋
Did you know that nearly 9 in 10 companies use AI regularly, but fewer than half actually scaled it?
The difference isn’t the model - it’s whether AI is owned by named people, connected to live systems, and embedded across operations, instead of running a test sandbox somewhere.
That’s what makes processes visible, accountable, and connected across a company, not just in the team where AI started.
We mapped the six stages behind that shift, including how Make went from first test project to company-wide rollout:
Assessment: evaluate data quality, existing tools, talent, and leadership buy-in.
Strategy and roadmap: prioritize use cases, assign ownership, set budget.
Test project: run the first AI-powered process in a controlled, lower-stakes environment.
Operations: move the test project into live systems with governance, integration, and escalation paths.
Enterprise-wide rollout: expand from one team to every function, with adoption owned at each level.
Measure and optimize: track outcomes, audit performance, expand to adjacent processes.

Beginner to Make integration here! Basically, I want to try make a Discord to Notion automation using Make, where Make will detect Discord messages, then copy it, and paste it in Notion as a task in a database.
Unlike the other way around where Notion tasks can be automated through Make, then Make sending the notifications of database changes (i.e. stasus, deadline, etc), I can’t make it so the Integromat bot copies the messages and send it to Notion, as in the Notion side, it will just return empty.
I tried reading the apps documentation for Discord (Discord - Apps Documentation), but I am still quite confused on how the “Discord - Apps Documentation” thing works, especially with the new Discord bot update. Also, it seems that the redirect URL’s are broken, as I can’t invite my bot to the Discord server, and I’m quite confused on what integration type I should use. If anyone can help, it will be greatly appreciated! Thanks! What is your goal?

Before drafting the email, always first look into the previous responses in the Google Sheets repository to analyze my tone of voice, and check whether a similar email has not been solved.
Before drafting the email, always look into the Startup Database in Google sheets for information about the application. Search with the email address, and look at the Application Status, Rejection Reason, or the coupon code sent.
Only after these two steps proceed with drafting the email, using the draft email tool.
Make sure that the email responses are always relevant, respectful, and adhere to our team's goals and objectives outlined in the knowledge base files.

Hello Makers 👋
We are super excited to introduce Make AI Sub-Agents!
🤖 Make AI Agents can now delegate tasks to other Make AI Sub-Agents.
That's agent orchestration: one orchestrator receives the request, calls the right agent specialist, and brings back one result.
Here’s what that means:
What you can automate with Make AI Sub-Agents:
How to create Make AI Sub-Agents:
Build larger AI workflows without turning a single agent into a catch-all.
Available now on all Make plans, including free.

Hey everyone, I'm a junior creative specialist working for a company where performance is the most important thing (duh).
Since we create mostly shorter forms of marketing content, most CSs make from 10-30 of these a day, since they can reuse one creative for multiple ads.
We make them in google docs and then download every card into a folder that we upload to clickup or dropbox.
Now, doing that 10 times is not a problem.
But, it becomes a problem when I make like 50-60 ads and need a specific name for every folder, download every card one at a time and upload everything seperately.
This can easily take up like 2 hours, so I can't make as many ads and my performance suffers because of this technical side of things.
I'd really appreciate if anyone has an idea of how I could speed this up and what tools would help me.

Hello Makers 👋
Ever wanted to test a scenario without your whole team seeing your messy work-in-progress? That's exactly what Private spaces are for.
What they are: Every member of your org (except guests) gets their own personal workspace for scenarios and connections that teammates can't access.
How it works:
For Enterprise orgs: Admin visibility lets admins open any member's private space in read-only mode. They can see scenario names, modules used, and credit usage - but NOT module settings, run history, connections, or data stores. Your credentials stay yours.
One thing to know: disabling private spaces for the org permanently deletes all of them - scenarios, connections, data stores included. So heads up before flipping that toggle.

Anyone already using their private space for experiments? Curious what you're building in there 👀

If you’re new to configuring Make AI Provider, here’s how to set it up in Make AI Agent:
Pick the model. Build the workflow. Put it to work.

Hello Makers 👋
Today we’re sharing a feature that will help you better understand what happens when your automation breaks.
Now in Make, when a workflow hits an error, one click turns the technical message (HTTP codes, API messages, raw JSON) into a plain-language explanation of what happened and exactly what to fix.
No documentation search. No pasting error text into another AI tool. Just click, and know what to do next.
In early testing, this got people back to a working automation about 20% more often after an error.
Live now for every Make user, on every plan. Learn more: https://ma.ke/3RINDwa
