What you can automate

What can the Converts.online Make integration do for you?

It lets Make send files and web addresses to Converts.online and get the converted result back inside a scenario, which is the automation you build in Make as a chain of bricks called modules. Every module here is an action: it does something when the previous step hands it data, and it never starts a scenario on its own.

Standardize incoming Word files. A sales team receives proposals as DOC or DOCX attachments. Another app catches the email, and Convert a DOC or a DOCX file processes each attachment so the converted copy can be stored or forwarded.

Archive web pages. A marketing analyst keeps a record of competitor landing pages. Convert content of a URL takes the address itself, so there is no file to download first.

Turn generated HTML into a shareable file. If a tool produces reports or invoices as HTML, Convert an HTML file handles that file, and Make an API Call reaches any other endpoint of the Converts.online API with the same connection.

Know the limits before you start. Make's own documentation for this app is marked as limited, and it does not state which output formats each module produces, so test with a real file and read the result. On the Free plan, Make handles files up to 5 MB. To weigh the platform itself, read the Make review, and if you also look at n8n, the n8n vs Make comparison sets out the criteria. When a run fails, Make troubleshooting covers the usual causes.

Connect

How do you connect Converts.online to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a Converts.online module

    In your scenario, add any Converts.online module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Converts.online account linked to Make once, then reused by all four modules of the app.

  2. 02

    Name the connection

    Give the connection a name if you like. It is optional, yet a clear label such as the account owner helps when several people share the same Make organization and pick from the list later.

  3. 03

    Authorize and save

    Follow what the screen asks: either approve Make on the Converts.online page or paste the key that Converts.online gives you. Then click Save, and the module is ready for its fields.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Converts.online

GoalWhen a Word document reaches another app you use, Make sends it to Converts.online and gets the converted file back.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. Pick the app where your Word files arrive, such as your mailbox or file storage, and choose its trigger.

  2. 02

    Set up the starting module

    Connect that first app and fill its fields. Make lists the folders or labels it can read once the connection exists, so you only point it at the place where documents land.

  3. 03

    Add the conversion

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search Converts.online and pick Convert a DOC or a DOCX file. Create the connection, then map the file coming from the previous module.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Drop a sample document where the trigger looks, then click Run once. Open the bubbles above each module to read the bundles, the items passed from one module to the next.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the schedule on the first module, which is every 15 minutes by default on a new scenario, then switch the scenario on. Each module run on a bundle counts as one operation on your plan.

Modules

What the Converts.online modules do

Converts.online gives you 4 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Converts.online1

Convert a DOC or a DOCX file

ActionIn the docs only

Hands a Word document to Converts.online and returns the converted version, so a proposal or contract no longer waits for someone to open it and export it manually.

When to use it
a previous module already delivers the DOC or DOCX file, for example an attachment from an email app or a file from cloud storage.
Watch out
the documentation does not name the output format, so check the result during Run once.
Converts.online2

Convert an HTML file

ActionIn the docs only

Takes an HTML file you already hold in the scenario and gets it converted, which suits reports or receipts that another tool writes as web markup rather than as a document.

When to use it
you have the HTML as a file; if all you have is a web address, the URL module is the better fit.
Watch out
on the Free plan, Make handles files up to 5 MB, so check the size of large exports before you switch the scenario on.
Converts.online3

Convert content of a URL

ActionIn the docs only

Gives Converts.online a web address and gets back the converted content of that page, with no need to fetch or save the page yourself beforehand.

When to use it
links come from a spreadsheet row, a form answer or a message, and you want a stored copy of each page.
Watch out
the page must be reachable when the module runs; test a real link with Run once before switching the scenario on.
Converts.online4

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

Opens the rest of the Converts.online API to your scenario, reusing the same connection, for anything the three conversion modules do not cover.

When to use it
you need an endpoint that has no dedicated module, and you have read the Converts.online API reference to know which one.
Watch out
you build the request yourself, so a wrong path or body returns an error rather than a converted file.

FAQ

Converts.online and Make: common questions

01Is the Converts.online Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. Converts.online is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution at most, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans drop the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes of execution. Usage is counted in credits, meaning operations, each month. Whatever Converts.online itself charges is separate and depends on your account with them.
02What do you need to connect Converts.online to Make?
A Converts.online account and a Make account. Make's documentation lists no specific prerequisite for this app. You add a Converts.online module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, then either authorize Make on the Converts.online page or paste the key the app gives you, and click Save. The documentation for this app is marked as limited, so if the connection screen asks for something unexpected, look in your Converts.online account settings first. One connection then serves all four modules.
03Does Converts.online trigger a Make scenario in real time?
No, because Converts.online has no trigger module in Make: all four modules are actions. A scenario therefore starts elsewhere. You can open it with a trigger from another app, such as a new email or a new file in storage, and the Converts.online module runs right after. You can also let the schedule start it, which is every 15 minutes by default on a new scenario, with 15 minutes as the minimum on the Free plan and 1 minute on paid plans.
04What if a Converts.online module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It calls any endpoint of the Converts.online API from your scenario with the same connection, so an operation without a dedicated module is still reachable. You write the request yourself, which means reading the Converts.online API reference first. Keep in mind that Make's documentation for this app is limited and does not state output formats, so run each new setup with Run once and inspect the bundle before relying on it. On the Free plan, files above 5 MB are another limit to plan around.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Converts.online?
It depends on the criteria that matter to your team, not on a ranking. On Make, Converts.online offers 4 action modules plus Make an API Call for the rest of its API, and the app is available from the Free plan. Many apps also have an n8n node, but nothing here confirms one for Converts.online, so check the n8n node list before comparing. Then compare how each tool fits your existing scenarios, your team's habits and where your other apps already run.
