What you can automate

What can the DocuProx Make integration do for you?

The DocuProx Make integration lets a Make scenario, the automation you build as a chain of modules, hand a document to DocuProx through one action called Process a Document. A module is one brick of that chain. DocuProx has no trigger in Make, so another app or a schedule starts the run.

Documents coming out of a form. When a form tool or a mailbox module picks up an attachment, the next brick can be Process a Document, so the file goes to DocuProx without anyone downloading and re-uploading it.

A backlog handled on a timer. Because DocuProx cannot start a scenario on its own, you can open the flow with another app and let Make check it on the scenario's schedule, every 15 minutes by default on a new scenario.

Results sent onward. Whatever Process a Document returns becomes a bundle, one item passed to the next module, so you can add a step after it in another app. Run the scenario once first to see what that bundle actually contains, since the documentation does not list it.

Be clear on the limits. Make's own documentation for DocuProx says it is limited, because little public information exists about the app, and it lists no fields, formats or connection prerequisites. There is no Make an API Call module either. If you are still choosing between tools, the n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria, the Make training covers the editor from scratch, and Make troubleshooting helps when a run fails.

Connect

How do you connect DocuProx to Make?

  1. 01

    Add the module and open the connection

    In your scenario, add the DocuProx module Process a Document, then click Create a connection. A connection is your DocuProx account linked to Make once, then reused by every DocuProx module you add later.

  2. 02

    Name it so you recognize it

    Giving the connection a name is optional, but it pays off the day you link a second DocuProx account. A label such as the team or the client it belongs to keeps you from picking the wrong one in a hurry.

  3. 03

    Authorize and save

    Follow what DocuProx asks for: either sign in and approve Make on the DocuProx page, or paste the key DocuProx gives you. Then click Save. Make's documentation does not say which of the two DocuProx uses.

First scenario

Your first scenario with DocuProx

GoalWhen another app delivers a document, Make passes it to DocuProx with Process a Document.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big +. That first slot is where the run starts, so it belongs to the app that holds your documents.

  2. 02

    Pick the starting app

    Search for the app where documents arrive, choose its module and connect it. DocuProx has no trigger, so this other app is what tells Make that there is a new document to process.

  3. 03

    Add Process a Document

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search for DocuProx and pick Process a Document. Create the connection, then map the data from the first module into the fields Make shows.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once to execute the scenario a single time. Open the bubble above each module to read the bundles it received, and check what DocuProx sent back before you build anything after it.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch it on

    Set the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, then turn the scenario on. On the Free plan, 15 minutes is also the shortest gap allowed between two scheduled runs.

Modules

What the DocuProx module does

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

DocuProx1

Process a Document

ActionIn the docs only

Process a Document is the one action DocuProx offers in Make: judging by its name, it hands DocuProx a document from earlier in your scenario, so nobody uploads it by hand. Each document it handles costs one operation, the unit Make counts on your plan.

When to use it
right after the module that brings in the file, such as a new attachment or a form submission in another app.
Watch out
Make's documentation lists neither its fields nor its output, so inspect the bundle from a Run once first.

FAQ

Questions about the DocuProx Make integration

01Is the DocuProx Make integration free?
Yes, on Make's side. DocuProx is a standard app, so its module is available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution per run, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Each time Process a Document handles a document, Make counts an operation against your plan. Paid plans lower the interval to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. Whatever DocuProx itself charges is a separate matter to check with DocuProx.
02What do you need to connect DocuProx to Make?
A DocuProx account and a Make account. Make's documentation lists no specific prerequisite for DocuProx and gives no dedicated connection steps, so the standard route applies: add Process a Document, click Create a connection, optionally name it, authorize Make on the DocuProx page or paste the key DocuProx provides, then click Save. The connection is stored once and reused by any DocuProx module you add afterwards. If the window asks for something unfamiliar, the answer sits in your DocuProx account rather than in Make.
03Can DocuProx trigger a Make scenario in real time?
No. DocuProx has no trigger module in Make, neither scheduled nor instant, so it cannot start a scenario by itself. Open the flow with a trigger from another app, for example the tool where your documents land, and put Process a Document right after it. That first module runs on the scenario's schedule, which is every 15 minutes by default, or reacts at once if the other app offers an instant trigger. Either way, DocuProx only acts when an earlier module passes it a document.
04What if the DocuProx module you need is missing in Make?
There is no workaround inside DocuProx itself. The app has a single module, Process a Document, and no Make an API Call module to reach other DocuProx functions. Make's documentation also says it is limited because little public information exists about DocuProx. If your process needs more than sending a document for processing, check whether another app in your scenario can cover that step, or ask the Make agency team at Hack'celeration to look at your case.
05Should you use Make or n8n with DocuProx?
It depends on where the rest of your process already runs. In Make, DocuProx gives you one action, Process a Document, available from the Free plan, and it has to follow a trigger from another app. Before deciding, check whether n8n offers a DocuProx node and what it covers, since that is not confirmed here. Then weigh the practical side: which tool already holds your other apps and connections, and which editor your team is comfortable maintaining. Neither choice is better by default.
