What you can automate

What can the ClickFunnels Classic Make integration do?

The ClickFunnels Classic Make integration links your funnels to Make, a visual tool where you build a scenario: an automation made of modules, each one a single brick such as a trigger or an action. Your funnel can tell Make about new contacts and new purchases, and Make can push a contact into one of your opt-in pages.

Send every sale to your team. Watch New Purchases fires when someone buys in a funnel. Each purchase arrives in Make as a bundle, one item passed from module to module, so you can drop it into a spreadsheet, a CRM or a chat channel owned by another app.

Keep your list in sync. Watch New Contacts reacts to people who join a funnel. Pair it with the email tool your team already uses and nobody has to export a CSV by hand again.

Feed a funnel from outside. Add a Contact goes the other way: it submits a person to an opt-in page exactly like a visitor filling in the form. Leads captured at an event, in a booking tool or in a shared table can land in the right funnel. Booking tools have their own guide, such as the Acuity Scheduling Make integration.

What the integration does not cover: there are no search modules and no update or delete actions, so Make cannot look up or edit an existing ClickFunnels Classic contact. The same app often has an n8n node too; the n8n vs Make comparison helps you pick a tool, and the Make review covers the editor in depth.

Connect

How do you connect ClickFunnels Classic to Make?

  1. 01

    Open the connection window

    Log in to Make, add any ClickFunnels Classic module to your scenario and click Create a connection. A connection is your ClickFunnels Classic account linked to Make once, then reused by every module of this app.

  2. 02

    Point it at your opt-in page

    In the Page URL field, paste the full address of the ClickFunnels Classic page that should receive contact submissions. Copy it straight from your browser bar so the domain and the page path both match.

  3. 03

    Fill in the contact and save

    Enter the contact details in the Name and Email fields, then click Save. If a window asks you to authenticate, sign in to ClickFunnels Classic and confirm access.

First scenario

Your first scenario: send outside leads into a funnel

GoalWhen a lead is captured in another app, Make submits it to your ClickFunnels Classic opt-in page.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Go to the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big + to place the first module. This first module is the app where your leads are captured today, such as a form or a table.

  2. 02

    Connect the lead source

    Search that app by name, pick its module and click Create a connection. Once linked, Make lists the forms, sheets or objects it can read, so you choose from a menu instead of typing.

  3. 03

    Add ClickFunnels Classic

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search ClickFunnels Classic and pick Add a Contact. Map the name and email coming from the previous module into its fields.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once to execute the scenario one time. Open the bubble above each module to read the bundles it received, then check that the test lead appears in your funnel.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch it on

    Set the schedule on the first module; a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default. Then flip the scenario on, and new leads start flowing into the opt-in page without anyone copying them.

Triggers

What starts a ClickFunnels Classic scenario?

2 modules start a scenario when something happens in ClickFunnels Classic. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by ClickFunnels Classic as soon as it happens.

ClickFunnels Classic1Watch New Contacts

Watch New Contacts

Instant trigger

In MakeWatches for new contacts created in the funnel.

Watch New Contacts hands you every person who joins one of your funnels, so the rest of your tools learn about a signup the moment it happens. Each new contact becomes one bundle that later modules can file, tag or announce.

How it fires
instant: the app calls Make through a webhook as soon as it happens, which is what the lightning badge on the module means.
When to use it
you want a new opt-in copied into your email tool or your CRM without waiting for a manual export.
Watch out
it only reports new contacts, not edits to people already in the funnel, so plan a different route for updates.
ClickFunnels Classic2Watch New Purchases

Watch New Purchases

Instant trigger

In MakeWatches for new purchases in your funnels. Please create a new webhook in the corresponding funnel’s settings using the given webhook URL. Please use one event per webhook to avoid duplicated data.

Watch New Purchases gives you each sale made in your funnels as it happens, ready to be logged, shared with the team or passed to your accounting side. One purchase equals one bundle in the scenario.

How it fires
instant: the app calls Make through a webhook as soon as it happens, once you paste the webhook URL from Make into the settings of the funnel.
When to use it
a sales channel should ping your team, or a spreadsheet should gain a row for every order.
Watch out
keep one event per webhook in the funnel settings, otherwise the same purchase can reach Make twice and create duplicates.
Modules

What can Make do in ClickFunnels Classic?

ClickFunnels Classic gives you 1 module. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

ClickFunnels Classic1

Add a Contact

Action

In MakeSubmits the contact to a specified opt-in page as your customers usually do when signing up on the page and filling out and submitting the form.

Add a Contact puts a person into your funnel for you: Make submits the name and email to the opt-in page you chose, just as a visitor would by filling in the form. The contact then follows whatever that page normally triggers.

When to use it
leads arrive somewhere other than ClickFunnels Classic, like a webinar tool or a shared table, and should still enter the funnel.
Watch out
the page address must be the full URL of the opt-in page, or the submission has nowhere to land.

FAQ

ClickFunnels Classic and Make: common questions

01Is the ClickFunnels Classic Make integration free?
Yes. ClickFunnels Classic is a standard app in Make, so its modules work on the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between scheduled runs, up to 5 minutes of execution per run, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and count usage in credits, where each operation is one module running on one bundle. Your ClickFunnels Classic subscription is a separate matter.
02What do you need to connect ClickFunnels Classic to Make?
A ClickFunnels Classic account and a Make account are enough; the documentation lists no other prerequisite. Add a ClickFunnels Classic module, click Create a connection, paste the full URL of the page that should receive contacts in Page URL, fill in Name and Email, then click Save. If a window asks you to authenticate, sign in and confirm access. For purchases, you also create a webhook in the funnel settings using the URL that Make displays on the Watch New Purchases module.
03Do the ClickFunnels Classic triggers in Make react in real time?
Yes. Both triggers, Watch New Contacts and Watch New Purchases, are instant: ClickFunnels Classic calls Make through a webhook as soon as a contact joins or a purchase happens, so the scenario does not wait for a polling interval. The lightning badge on each module shows this. The only setup to watch is on the purchase side, where the webhook has to exist in the funnel settings, with one event per webhook to avoid receiving the same data twice.
04What if a ClickFunnels Classic module is missing in Make?
It depends on what you need. The app offers 3 modules and no Make an API Call module, so you cannot send a custom request to ClickFunnels Classic from Make. There is no module to search, update or delete a contact either. A common workaround is to keep the record you need to change in another app that Make handles fully, such as a CRM or a table, and use the ClickFunnels Classic triggers to feed it. For anything more specific, the team can look at your case.
05Should you use Make or n8n with ClickFunnels Classic?
It depends on how you prefer to build. Make shows ClickFunnels Classic as a standard app with 2 instant triggers and 1 action, available from the Free plan, and you assemble the scenario visually. The same app often has an n8n node as well, so check whether one exists and whether it covers the events you need. Compare the list of modules on each side against your actual workflow before choosing, rather than the tool reputation.
