Main Functions of Make.com

  • Triggers

    Example Example

    A trigger is an event that initiates a scenario. For instance, a new email received in Gmail can be set as a trigger.

    Example Scenario

    A business owner wants to automatically process customer inquiries received via email. By setting a Gmail trigger for new emails, the scenario can be configured to extract relevant data and input it into a CRM system like Salesforce, creating a new lead record.

  • Actions

    Example Example

    Actions are the tasks performed by a scenario once triggered. For example, creating a new row in a Google Sheet.

    Example Scenario

    In a sales reporting scenario, a new sale recorded in a Stripe account (trigger) can initiate actions like logging the sale details into a Google Sheet, updating an inventory system, and sending a confirmation email to the customer.

  • Data Transformations

    Example Example

    Data transformations allow users to modify data within a scenario. This includes operations like formatting text, performing calculations, or parsing data.

    Example Scenario

    A marketing team can use data transformations to reformat and clean data collected from a web form before it’s added to a Mailchimp email list. This ensures that all email addresses are standardized, and unnecessary characters are removed.
