EasyCargo Make integrationAutomate EasyCargo with Make.
Can EasyCargo plan shipments from data that lives in your other tools? The EasyCargo Make integration gives you 17 modules, 13 actions and 4 searches, for ops teams tired of retyping orders. This page connects your account and walks you through a first scenario.

What can the EasyCargo Make integration automate?
The EasyCargo Make integration links your EasyCargo account to Make so that shipments, cargo spaces, item templates and users can be created, read or removed by a scenario, the automation you build in Make as a chain of modules. A module is one brick of that chain. No code is involved: you pick modules and fill their fields.
Orders turn into planned shipments. A confirmed order in your sales tool feeds Create a Shipment, then Create a Shipment Public Link prepares a link for the customer or the carrier. Nobody copies addresses or quantities by hand anymore.
Reports reach the right inbox. Get a Shipment Report pulls the report out of EasyCargo and the next module forwards it to a driver, files it in a shared drive or posts it to a team channel.
Your user list follows your hiring. List Users checks whether a new colleague already has an account, and Create a User opens one when needed. Nobody waits for an admin to remember them.
Two limits to know. EasyCargo has no trigger module, so an EasyCargo event cannot start a scenario by itself: the scenario runs on a schedule or starts from another app. And the Make doc gives no description of the modules, and warns that its own text is AI-generated and worth checking, so test each module with Run once before trusting it. For anything outside the list, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the EasyCargo API. Our Make review covers the editor itself, the Make training takes you further, and if you are weighing tools, n8n vs Make lays out the criteria.
How do you connect EasyCargo to Make?
- 01
Add an EasyCargo module
In your Make account, open a scenario, add any EasyCargo module and click Create a connection. A connection is your EasyCargo account linked to Make once, then reused by every EasyCargo module you add later.
- 02
Name the connection
The Connection name field is optional, but a clear name helps as soon as you manage a test account and a live one. Something like the team or the depot it belongs to is enough.
- 03
Paste your credentials
Enter the API key and the user email tied to your EasyCargo account, then save. You need an active EasyCargo user account with an API key assigned to it, otherwise the connection will not go through.
Your first scenario with EasyCargo
GoalWhen a new order arrives in your order tool, Make creates the matching shipment in EasyCargo and a public link for it.
- 01
Create the scenario
From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Since EasyCargo has no trigger, this first module comes from the app where your orders land.
- 02
Add Create a Shipment
Click the + on the right of that first module, search for EasyCargo and pick Create a Shipment. Choose your connection, or click Create a connection if this is your first EasyCargo module.
- 03
Map the order data
Fill the fields of Create a Shipment by mapping values from the order module. Each bundle, meaning one item passed from a module to the next, here one order, creates one shipment.
- 04
Add the public link
Click the + again and add Create a Shipment Public Link. Map the shipment returned by the previous module so the link points to the shipment you just created.
- 05
Test with Run once
Click Run once to run the scenario a single time, then open each module to read the bundles it received. Check in EasyCargo that the shipment looks the way your planners expect.
- 06
Schedule and switch on
Set the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, and switch the scenario on. Each module run on a bundle counts as one operation on your Make plan.
What the EasyCargo modules do
EasyCargo gives you 17 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Create Cargo Item Templates
ActionIn the docs onlyYou get item templates added to EasyCargo straight from a scenario, instead of typing each one into the app. The name is plural, so expect it to take more than one item; the doc adds no description, so confirm what it stores with Run once.
Create a Cargo Space
ActionIn the docs onlyThis module adds a cargo space to your EasyCargo account from Make, so the spaces you plan loads into can come from another system instead of being entered twice.
Create a Shipment
ActionIn the docs onlyCreate a Shipment opens a new shipment in EasyCargo from data that already exists elsewhere, which spares your planners from copying order details into the app. It is the natural second step of a scenario that starts in your order tool.
Create a Shipment Public Link
ActionIn the docs onlyYou end up with a link to a shipment that someone outside your EasyCargo account can open, if the module does what its name announces. The doc says nothing more, so check the output of Run once before sending the link anywhere.
Create a User
ActionIn the docs onlyNew colleagues get an EasyCargo account without anyone opening the admin screens, because Make creates the user for you. With no field list in the doc, the module itself shows what it expects.
Delete a Cargo Item Template
ActionIn the docs onlyOutdated item templates leave your EasyCargo list when the scenario runs after a product is dropped, so planners stop picking items you no longer ship.
Delete a Shipment
ActionIn the docs onlyCancelled orders stop leaving ghost shipments in EasyCargo: this module removes the shipment you point it to.
Get Cargo Items Placements
ActionIn the docs onlyGoing by its name, this module brings the placement of the items back into Make, in other words where each item sits once the load is planned, so another tool can use it.
Get a Cargo Space
ActionIn the docs onlyYou retrieve the details of one cargo space you already know, which helps when a later module needs information about that space and not only its reference.
Get a Shipment
ActionIn the docs onlyGet a Shipment brings one shipment back into the scenario so its data can travel to the next module, whether that is an email, a CRM record or a row in a sheet.
Get a Shipment Report
ActionIn the docs onlyA shipment report lands in your scenario, ready to be forwarded or archived, instead of someone exporting it from EasyCargo by hand.
Get a User
ActionIn the docs onlyThis module fetches one EasyCargo user so the scenario knows who it is dealing with, for instance before sending a notification or updating another tool.
List Cargo Item Templates
SearchIn the docs onlyThe item templates stored in EasyCargo come into Make as a list, the easiest way to compare them with your catalog or copy them into a sheet.
List Cargo Spaces
SearchIn the docs onlyA scenario that has to pick a loading space gets its options here: List Cargo Spaces returns the spaces saved in EasyCargo, one bundle per space.
List Shipments
SearchIn the docs onlyYour shipments come out of EasyCargo one bundle each, ready to feed a report, a sheet or a clean-up scenario.
List Users
SearchIn the docs onlyThe people registered in EasyCargo show up in the scenario as a list, useful to keep another tool's directory in line with who can access the planner.
Make an API Call
ActionIn the docs onlyWhatever the listed modules leave out, this one can still reach, because it calls any endpoint of the EasyCargo API with the connection you already set up.
