What you can automate

What can the Doubao AI Make integration do for you?

With the Doubao AI Make integration, a Make scenario (the automation you build, a chain of modules) sends work to Doubao AI and passes the answer on to your other apps. Each module is one brick of that chain. All 11 Doubao AI modules are actions: they do something when the scenario reaches them, they never start it.

Translated content without copy and paste. A form, a shared sheet or a support tool hands text to Translate a Text, and the next module files the translation where your team reads it. Nobody opens a translator by hand.

Visuals produced from a brief. A product description or a campaign idea goes to Generate an Image (Doubao-Seedream-4.5). For motion, Generate a Video Doubao-Seedance-1.0-pro starts a video job, and Get a Video/3D Generation Task Status lets a later step check where that job stands before you pick up the result.

A consistent assistant voice. Play a Role Doubao-1.5-pro-32k fits cases where every answer should come from the same persona, for example a draft reply written in your brand tone.

What the integration does not do: it has no trigger, so Doubao AI never wakes Make up by itself. Your scenario starts from another app or from a schedule. The doc itself warns that it was written with AI help and may contain mistakes, so test each module with your own account.

Connect

How do you connect Doubao AI to Make?

  1. 01

    Gather your keys first

    The Make doc asks for a Baidu Cloud account with enterprise real name authentication, plus an API Key and a Secret Key. In your Doubao AI dashboard, open your profile, find the API Key section and copy the key shown there.

  2. 02

    Add a Doubao AI module

    In your Make scenario, add any Doubao AI module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Doubao AI account linked to Make once, then reused by every Doubao AI module you add later.

  3. 03

    Paste the credentials and save

    Give it a clear name in the Connection name field (optional, but handy with several accounts). Paste the credentials you copied, or follow the instructions on screen, then save. Make now reads your account.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Doubao AI

GoalWhen a new entry lands in another app, Make sends its text to Doubao AI and gets a translated version back.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big + to add the first module. Since Doubao AI has no trigger, this first module comes from the app that holds your text, a form tool for instance.

  2. 02

    Pick the starting app

    Search that app by name, choose its trigger and create its connection. Each item it sends onward is a bundle: one bundle is one entry, carried from one module to the next.

  3. 03

    Add Translate a Text

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search Doubao AI and pick Translate a Text. Choose your connection, then map the text field of the previous module into it.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once to run the scenario one time. Open the bubble above each module to read the bundles it received and check the translation that Doubao AI returned.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

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

Modules

What can each Doubao AI module do?

Doubao AI gives you 11 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Doubao AI1

Create a Vectorization Model

ActionIn the docs only

You get a numeric version of your text from Doubao AI, the kind of output search and matching tools compare. The doc gives no description, so the name is the only guide here.

When to use it
you are feeding a search or similarity step in another tool and need Doubao AI to encode the text first.
Watch out
run it once on a sample and read the output bundle before you build anything on top of it.
Doubao AI2

Create an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

This one gives you a way to send a request of your own to Doubao AI when none of the ready-made modules covers what you need. The doc lists it without explaining its settings.

When to use it
the task you have in mind has no dedicated module, and you know the request Doubao AI expects.
Watch out
you describe the request yourself, so check the vendor documentation and test with Run once before going live.
Doubao AI3

Generate a 3D Model

ActionIn the docs only

Hand Doubao AI a request and it starts building a 3D model for you, straight from your scenario. Judging by the separate status module, this looks like a job that finishes later rather than instantly.

When to use it
a product sheet or a design brief in another app should turn into a 3D draft without anyone opening Doubao AI.
Watch out
plan a later step with Get a Video/3D Generation Task Status to see whether the job is done.
Doubao AI4

Generate a Video Doubao-Seedance-1.0-pro

ActionIn the docs only

A short brief becomes a video request sent to the Seedance model, so the clip is produced without you copying prompts by hand. The module name pins the model version.

When to use it
a new product, article or campaign idea should come with a draft video for your marketing team.
Watch out
each run counts as one operation, so filter upstream to avoid firing it on every small change.
Doubao AI5

Generate an Image (Doubao-Seedream-4.5)

ActionIn the docs only

Visuals appear from a text description, generated by the Seedream model and handed to the next module of your scenario. Pick this when a picture, not a clip, is enough.

When to use it
every new listing in your catalog needs an illustration before it reaches your site or your social tool.
Watch out
the doc says nothing about image formats or sizes, so check the first bundle before sending files anywhere.
Doubao AI6

Get Video Generation Task List

ActionIn the docs only

Here you get an overview of the video jobs on your Doubao AI account, useful when several requests are running and you want to follow them from Make.

When to use it
a follow-up scenario reviews pending videos and reports them in a sheet or a chat channel.
Watch out
it is typed as an action, not a search, so read the first result in Run once to see how the list comes back before mapping it.
Doubao AI7

Get a Video/3D Generation Task Status

ActionIn the docs only

Answers the question every generation job raises: is it finished yet? You point it at one video or 3D job and read where it stands.

When to use it
right after a generation module, or in a second scenario, before downloading or sharing the result.
Watch out
make sure it targets the job started earlier in the same scenario, or you will read the status of the wrong one.
Doubao AI8

Play a Role Doubao-1.5-pro-32k

ActionIn the docs only

Your scenario gets answers from a defined character, so replies keep the same voice whatever the incoming message. The name points to a role-play model of the Doubao 1.5 pro family.

When to use it
a support inbox or a chat tool needs draft replies written in one consistent persona.
Watch out
have a person review the drafts at first, since the doc gives no detail on how the role is set.
Doubao AI9

Translate a Text

ActionIn the docs only

Text that arrives in one language leaves in another, without anyone pasting it into a translator. It is the simplest Doubao AI module to start with, and the one used in the first scenario above.

When to use it
form answers, reviews or tickets arrive in several languages and your team reads only one.
Watch out
the doc lists no supported languages, so test with a real sample from each language you expect.
Doubao AI10

Update Deep Thinking

ActionIn the docs only

Going by its name, this module works with Doubao AI's deep thinking mode, the setting meant for requests that need more reasoning than a quick answer. The doc does not describe it further.

When to use it
a scenario handles questions that call for careful analysis, such as summarizing a long request before routing it.
Watch out
try it on a copy of your scenario first and compare its output with a plain module.
Doubao AI11

Update Visual Understanding

ActionIn the docs only

Pictures become something your scenario can act on: this module relates to Doubao AI's visual understanding, reading what an image shows. Only the name documents it for now.

When to use it
photos arrive through a form or an inbox and you want a short description attached before filing them.
Watch out
the Make Free plan caps files at 5 MB, so large images may need a paid plan.

FAQ

Doubao AI and Make: common questions

01Is the Doubao AI Make integration free?
Yes on the Make side: Doubao AI is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution per run, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans lower the interval to 1 minute and count usage in credits (operations) per month. Your Doubao AI subscription is separate; the Make doc sends you to the Doubao AI pricing page for it.
02What do you need to connect Doubao AI to Make?
According to the Make doc, a Baidu Cloud account with enterprise real name authentication, a Doubao AI account, an API Key and a Secret Key. The doc also points to your super membership order number, shown in the order center of your account. With those at hand, add any Doubao AI module, click Create a connection, paste the credentials and save. The connection is then reused by every Doubao AI module in your scenarios.
03Can Doubao AI start a Make scenario by itself?
No. Doubao AI has no trigger module in Make, scheduled or instant, so it cannot start a scenario. Put another app's trigger first, for example a new form entry or a new row in a sheet, and add the Doubao AI module after it. You can also start with a plain schedule on the first module: a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default, and the Free plan cannot go below that interval.
04What if a Doubao AI module is missing in Make?
Try Create an API Call first: its name suggests a free-form request for what the ready-made modules do not cover. Check the vendor documentation for what Doubao AI expects. The Make doc warns that its pages were produced with AI help and may contain errors, so verify anything important with Doubao AI directly. If the gap remains, another app or a custom build may be the better route, and the Hack'celeration team can review the case with you.
05Make or n8n for Doubao AI?
It depends on where the rest of your workflow already runs. In Make, Doubao AI brings 11 action modules and no trigger, so you pair it with another app's trigger or a schedule. The Make doc says nothing about n8n, so check the n8n side yourself before choosing. If your other apps and your team already work in Make, staying there keeps every step in one editor and one plan.
