What you can automate

What can the Expense Management Fidoo Make integration do?

The Expense Management Fidoo Make integration links your Fidoo company account to Make, a visual automation tool. You build a scenario, meaning the automation itself, out of modules, meaning bricks that each do one job: add a user, list card transactions, update a project. No code is needed, only a Fidoo API key.

Onboarding without retyping. When a new hire appears in your HR tool, Add a User creates the Fidoo profile and Activate a User switches it on. Offboarding follows the same logic with Unload Cards and Delete a User.

Reference data that stays aligned. Projects and cost centers usually live in an ERP or a project tool first. Add a Project, Update a Cost Center and their siblings copy each change into Fidoo, so every expense can be assigned to the right line.

Spending data sent where it is read. List Card Transactions and List Expense Items return one bundle per item (a bundle is one record passed to the next module), ready to push into a spreadsheet or an accounting tool.

What the app does not have: any trigger. Nothing in Fidoo starts a scenario on its own, so you run it on Make's schedule or open it with another app's trigger. Also note that Make labels this app's documentation as AI-generated from Fidoo's own docs, so check anything critical with Fidoo. The same app may also exist as an n8n node; the n8n vs Make comparison helps you choose, the Make pricing page explains the plans, and Make training covers the editor from scratch.

Connect

How do you connect Expense Management Fidoo to Make?

  1. 01

    Generate an API key in Fidoo

    Sign in to Fidoo as Main Administrator, or with the permission to manage API keys. Open Settings, then Company, then API Key Management, generate a key and copy it somewhere safe before leaving the page.

  2. 02

    Add a Fidoo module in Make

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

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Give the connection a clear label in Connection name if you manage several companies, paste the API key you copied, and save. Make now lists what it can read from your Fidoo account when you fill module fields.

First scenario

Build your first scenario with Expense Management Fidoo

GoalWhen a new project is created in your project tool, Make adds the same project to Expense Management Fidoo.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big +. Fidoo has no trigger, so the first module comes from the tool where your projects are born.

  2. 02

    Set the starting module

    Search for your project tool, pick its module that returns new projects and connect that account. This module decides when the scenario runs and hands each new project to the next step.

  3. 03

    Add Add a Project

    Click the + on the right, search Expense Management Fidoo, pick Add a Project and create the connection with your API key. Map the project name from the first module into its fields.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Create a test project in your tool, then click Run once. Open the bubbles above each module to read the bundles they received, and check in Fidoo that the project now exists.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Open the clock on the first module, keep the default of every 15 minutes or pick another interval your plan allows, then switch the scenario on. It now runs without you.

Modules

What each Expense Management Fidoo module does

Expense Management Fidoo gives you 49 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Expense Management Fidoo1

Activate a User

ActionIn the docs only

Activate a User turns an existing Fidoo profile back on, so a returning employee gets access again without a duplicate profile.

When to use it
a contractor comes back for a new assignment and your HR sheet marks them as active again.
Watch out
the person must already exist in Fidoo; run Get a User by Email before it so Make targets the right profile.
Expense Management Fidoo2

Activate an Application

ActionIn the docs only

Activate an Application switches on an application inside Fidoo from a scenario, instead of doing it by hand in the settings.

When to use it
a setup step you repeat for every new company or entity you configure.
Watch out
the documentation gives no description of this module, so open it in the editor and read what it asks for before you rely on it in production.
Expense Management Fidoo3

Add a Cost Center

ActionIn the docs only

With Add a Cost Center, a new cost center created in your ERP shows up in Fidoo too, so employees can book expenses to it without waiting for someone to retype it.

When to use it
finance opens a new department or site and wants it available for expense coding right away.
Watch out
run it only for truly new entries, or you will end up with twins; List Cost Centers helps you check first.
Expense Management Fidoo4

Add a Project

ActionIn the docs only

This action creates a project in Fidoo from data coming from another tool, so travel and card spending can be tied to it without anyone retyping the name.

When to use it
a deal is won in your CRM or a job opens in your project tool.
Watch out
each run creates one project per bundle it receives, so a test with ten bundles gives ten projects.
Expense Management Fidoo5

Add a User

ActionIn the docs only

Add a User creates an employee profile in Fidoo from your HR data, which removes the double entry that usually follows every hire.

When to use it
a new row lands in your onboarding sheet or HR tool with the person's details.
Watch out
check with Get a User by Email first; creating the same person twice leaves you with two profiles to clean up by hand.
Expense Management Fidoo6

Add a VAT Breakdown

ActionIn the docs only

Add a VAT Breakdown writes a new VAT split into Fidoo, so the tax side of your expense setup follows your accounting rules instead of being edited by hand.

When to use it
your accountant introduces a new tax treatment that expenses must be able to use.
Watch out
tax settings feed every expense that uses them, so test with Run once on a single entry and check it in Fidoo.
Expense Management Fidoo7

Add a Vehicle

ActionIn the docs only

Add a Vehicle registers a car in Fidoo from your fleet list, so mileage and fuel costs can point to it as soon as it joins the company.

When to use it
the fleet manager adds a leased car to the shared spreadsheet and wants Fidoo to follow.
Watch out
one bundle means one vehicle; filter out rows already synced before this module runs.
Expense Management Fidoo8

Add an Account Assignment

ActionIn the docs only

This module adds an account assignment in Fidoo, the kind of accounting mapping your team would otherwise type into settings one line at a time.

When to use it
your chart of accounts changes in the accounting tool and Fidoo must accept the new mapping.
Watch out
no field list is documented here, so open the module once to see what it expects before mapping data into it.
Expense Management Fidoo9

Add an Accounting Category

ActionIn the docs only

Add an Accounting Category creates a category in Fidoo so employees can classify their spending with the same labels your accountant uses.

When to use it
a new type of expense appears, such as a training budget, and it needs its own category.
Watch out
a spelling that differs from your accounting tool creates a second category; List Accounting Categories shows what already exists.
Expense Management Fidoo10

Delete a Cost Center

ActionIn the docs only

Delete a Cost Center removes a cost center from Fidoo, keeping the list employees pick from short and current.

When to use it
a department is closed in your ERP and nobody should book expenses to it any more.
Watch out
a delete cannot be undone from Make, so place a filter or a manual check before this module and test on a dummy entry.
Expense Management Fidoo11

Delete a Project

ActionIn the docs only

Use this module to take a project out of Fidoo once it no longer exists in the tool that owns your project list.

When to use it
a project created by mistake, or cancelled before any spending, is removed in your project tool.
Watch out
there is no undo from Make; for a project that already carries expenses, an update may be safer than a deletion.
Expense Management Fidoo12

Delete a User

ActionIn the docs only

Delete a User removes an employee profile from Fidoo, the last step of an offboarding you no longer want to do by hand.

When to use it
HR marks a departure as final and the person's cards have already been emptied with Unload Cards.
Watch out
this action is permanent from Make's side; a wrong email in the lookup deletes the wrong person, so test with Run once on a test profile.
Expense Management Fidoo13

Delete a VAT Breakdown

ActionIn the docs only

Delete a VAT Breakdown clears a VAT split you no longer use, so employees stop seeing an outdated tax option in Fidoo.

When to use it
your accountant retires a tax treatment and wants Fidoo to match the accounting tool.
Watch out
deleting cannot be reversed from the scenario; confirm with List VAT Breakdowns that you target the right one.
Expense Management Fidoo14

Delete a Vehicle

ActionIn the docs only

This action removes a vehicle from Fidoo when it leaves the fleet, so nobody assigns fuel or mileage to a car the company returned.

When to use it
a lease ends and the fleet sheet marks the car as returned.
Watch out
a deletion is final from Make; pick the vehicle from List Vehicles rather than typing it, to avoid removing the wrong one.
Expense Management Fidoo15

Delete an Account Assignment

ActionIn the docs only

Delete an Account Assignment drops an accounting mapping from Fidoo that your books no longer use, which keeps coding choices clean for employees.

When to use it
an account is closed in your accounting tool after a chart of accounts review.
Watch out
you cannot restore it from Make; run List Account Assignments first and delete only the exact entry you found.
Expense Management Fidoo16

Delete an Accounting Category

ActionIn the docs only

Delete an Accounting Category takes a category out of Fidoo so the picker employees see only holds labels your accountant still accepts.

When to use it
two categories were merged in the accounting tool and the old one must go.
Watch out
there is no undo in the scenario; check the category with List Accounting Categories and test on a spare one first.
Expense Management Fidoo17

Download a Receipt

ActionIn the docs only

Download a Receipt pulls a receipt out of Fidoo as a file your scenario can pass on, for example to cloud storage or to your accounting tool.

When to use it
your accountant wants every receipt filed next to the matching entry, not only inside Fidoo.
Watch out
on the Free plan Make handles files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of transfer, so heavy scans can hit that ceiling.
Expense Management Fidoo18

Get Load Card Status

ActionIn the docs only

Get Load Card Status reports where a card load stands, so your scenario can check the result of Load Cards before telling anyone the card is ready.

When to use it
right after Load Cards, before you notify the employee that the card is ready.
Watch out
the documentation does not describe the possible statuses, so click Run once and read the bundle to see the values before building a filter on them.
Expense Management Fidoo19

Get a Travel Report

ActionIn the docs only

This module fetches one travel report from Fidoo, the full record for a single trip, ready to be copied into another tool.

When to use it
you already know which report you need, for example one picked from List Travel Reports.
Watch out
it returns a single report; to cover all trips, start with List Travel Reports and feed each result into this module.
Expense Management Fidoo20

Get a Travel Request

ActionIn the docs only

Get a Travel Request reads one travel request from Fidoo, so a manager or a booking tool can see the trip details without logging in.

When to use it
you want to post a specific request in a team channel or copy it into a booking sheet.
Watch out
it needs to know which request to read; List Travel Requests gives you the candidates first.
Expense Management Fidoo21

Get a User

ActionIn the docs only

Get a User returns one Fidoo profile from its identifier, which is the cleanest way to reuse details stored in Fidoo later in the scenario.

When to use it
an earlier module already gave you the user's Fidoo identifier, for example List Users.
Watch out
if all you have is an email or an employee number, the two lookups below fit better than this one.
Expense Management Fidoo22

Get a User by Email

ActionIn the docs only

Get a User by Email finds a Fidoo profile from an email address, the one detail almost every other tool also stores about a person.

When to use it
before updating, activating or deleting a user whose email comes from your HR tool or CRM.
Watch out
an address spelled differently in the two tools returns nothing, so decide what the scenario should do when no profile comes back.
Expense Management Fidoo23

Get a User by Employee Number

ActionIn the docs only

Here the lookup key is the employee number, handy when your payroll or HR system identifies people by number rather than by email.

When to use it
a payroll export drives the scenario and emails are missing or shared between people.
Watch out
the employee number must also be filled in Fidoo; a profile without one cannot be found this way.
Expense Management Fidoo24

List Account Assignments

SearchIn the docs only

List Account Assignments returns the accounting mappings stored in Fidoo, one bundle per entry, so you can compare them with your books.

When to use it
before adding or deleting an assignment, to check what already exists.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or many bundles, and every module after it runs once per bundle, which counts operations on your plan.
Expense Management Fidoo25

List Accounting Categories

SearchIn the docs only

This search brings back every accounting category defined in Fidoo, useful to mirror the list in a spreadsheet your accountant reviews.

When to use it
you want to spot categories missing on one side before running Add an Accounting Category.
Watch out
each category is a separate bundle, and each downstream module then uses one operation per category.
Expense Management Fidoo26

List Accounts

SearchIn the docs only

List Accounts shows the accounts available in your Fidoo company, which is the starting point when a scenario has to pick one of them.

When to use it
you are building a report on balances or movements and need to know which accounts exist.
Watch out
the documentation does not say what each account record contains; run it once and read the bundles before mapping anything.
Expense Management Fidoo27

List Card Transactions

SearchIn the docs only

List Card Transactions pulls the payments made with Fidoo cards, one bundle per transaction, so finance sees card spending outside Fidoo too.

When to use it
you feed a spending dashboard or an accounting sheet and want every card payment in it.
Watch out
many transactions mean many bundles and as many operations downstream, so filter early in the scenario.
Expense Management Fidoo28

List Cards

SearchIn the docs only

List Cards returns the payment cards issued in Fidoo, which gives you the reference you need before loading, unloading or auditing them.

When to use it
you want a card inventory in a sheet, or you need the right card before Load Cards.
Watch out
the result is a set of bundles, one per card; make sure later modules act on the card you mean, not on all of them.
Expense Management Fidoo29

List Cost Centers

SearchIn the docs only

With List Cost Centers, your scenario reads the cost centers already in Fidoo and can compare them with the ERP before changing anything.

When to use it
a sync between your ERP and Fidoo, to decide between Add a Cost Center and Update a Cost Center.
Watch out
a search can come back empty; plan what the scenario does when it finds zero bundles.
Expense Management Fidoo30

List Expense Items

SearchIn the docs only

List Expense Items gathers the expense lines recorded in Fidoo, one bundle per item, ready to be copied to your accounting tool or a review sheet.

When to use it
your accountant wants expenses in a spreadsheet to review them before export.
Watch out
every returned item costs an operation in each module after it; narrow the search in its settings when the module offers it.
Expense Management Fidoo31

List Fidoo Account Transactions

SearchIn the docs only

List Fidoo Account Transactions returns the movements on the Fidoo account itself, the money side your treasury wants to reconcile with the bank.

When to use it
you reconcile Fidoo movements with bank statements in a sheet or accounting tool.
Watch out
do not confuse it with List Card Transactions, which covers card payments rather than the account.
Expense Management Fidoo32

List Personal Billings

SearchIn the docs only

This search retrieves personal billings from Fidoo, the amounts tied to individual employees, so payroll or finance can follow up on them elsewhere.

When to use it
payroll needs the personal amounts in its own tool to settle them with employees.
Watch out
the documentation does not detail what a billing record holds, so check a first bundle with Run once before mapping it.
Expense Management Fidoo33

List Projects

SearchIn the docs only

List Projects reads every project defined in Fidoo, which lets a scenario compare that list with your project tool before adding or updating.

When to use it
you want to avoid duplicates before Add a Project, or spot projects to close.
Watch out
each project is its own bundle; a module placed after this one runs once per project.
Expense Management Fidoo34

List Travel Reports

SearchIn the docs only

List Travel Reports returns the travel reports stored in Fidoo, one bundle each, the easy way to build a trip log outside the app.

When to use it
finance wants all trip reports in one sheet, or you need the identifier to call Get a Travel Report.
Watch out
a long list means many operations downstream; filter on what you actually need before the next module.
Expense Management Fidoo35

List Travel Requests

SearchIn the docs only

List Travel Requests lets a scenario see the trips employees asked for in Fidoo, so bookings or approvals can be followed in another tool.

When to use it
an office manager tracks upcoming trips in a shared calendar or sheet.
Watch out
Fidoo has no trigger, so new requests show up only when the scenario runs on its schedule.
Expense Management Fidoo36

List Users

SearchIn the docs only

List Users gives the full roster of Fidoo profiles, one bundle per person, which is the base of any audit of who has access.

When to use it
you compare Fidoo users with your HR list to catch people who left.
Watch out
a large company means many bundles; keep the modules after it light, since each one runs per user.
Expense Management Fidoo37

List VAT Breakdowns

SearchIn the docs only

List VAT Breakdowns lists the VAT splits set up in Fidoo, so you can check them against your accountant's rules without opening the settings.

When to use it
before adding, updating or deleting a VAT breakdown, to target the right entry.
Watch out
an empty result is a valid answer, not an error; decide what the scenario does in that case.
Expense Management Fidoo38

List Vehicles

SearchIn the docs only

List Vehicles returns the cars registered in Fidoo, one bundle each, so the fleet list in Fidoo can be matched against your fleet sheet.

When to use it
you look for vehicles to add, update or remove after a change in the fleet.
Watch out
modules placed after this search run once per vehicle, so filter before acting on the list.
Expense Management Fidoo39

Load Cards

ActionIn the docs only

Load Cards, as its name says, loads funds onto Fidoo cards from a scenario, so an approved budget reaches the employee's card without a manual step in the app.

When to use it
a trip or purchase is approved in another tool and the traveller needs funds on the card.
Watch out
money moves for real; test on a single card with Run once, then confirm with Get Load Card Status.
Expense Management Fidoo40

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

Make an API Call reaches any endpoint of the Fidoo API with the connection you already set up, for the cases the listed modules leave out.

When to use it
you need an operation Fidoo's API offers but no listed module exposes.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep Fidoo's API documentation open and test with Run once before switching the scenario on.
Expense Management Fidoo41

Unload Cards

ActionIn the docs only

Unload Cards pulls money back off Fidoo payment cards, so an unused balance returns to the company instead of sitting on a card nobody needs anymore.

When to use it
when an employee leaves or a project closes, place it after the step that spots the card and let the scenario recover the funds for you.
Watch out
this moves real money, so test it with Run once on a single card first, then read the returned bundle and check the balance in Fidoo.
Expense Management Fidoo42

Update a Cost Center

ActionIn the docs only

Update a Cost Center edits a cost center that already exists in Fidoo, which keeps your spending structure aligned with the org chart without anyone retyping it by hand.

When to use it
a department gets renamed in your HR tool, and the matching cost center should follow; choose it over Add a Cost Center whenever the entry is already there.
Watch out
the module changes one existing item, so map it from a List Cost Centers step earlier in the scenario to hit the right one.
Expense Management Fidoo43

Update a Project

ActionIn the docs only

Update a Project rewrites an existing project in Fidoo, so the expenses your team files keep landing on an accurate label.

When to use it
a deal moves forward in your CRM and the related project in Fidoo needs the same change, with no one opening two tools.
Watch out
a project that does not exist yet needs Add a Project instead; run List Projects first when you are not sure which case applies.
Expense Management Fidoo44

Update a User

ActionIn the docs only

With Update a User, a change made to an employee record elsewhere reaches their Fidoo profile too, so the spend tool never lags behind your HR system.

When to use it
someone switches teams or managers, and the scenario, started by your HR app, applies it in Fidoo.
Watch out
find the person first with Get a User by Email or Get a User by Employee Number, then map that result into this module so the edit lands on the right profile.
Expense Management Fidoo45

Update a VAT Breakdown

ActionIn the docs only

Update a VAT Breakdown corrects a VAT split already recorded in Fidoo, without anyone editing it in the interface.

When to use it
your bookkeeping tool flags a wrong tax split on a receipt, and the fix has to travel back to Fidoo so both sides match.
Watch out
List VAT Breakdowns returns several bundles (one item each), so filter down to the single entry you mean before this step runs.
Expense Management Fidoo46

Update a Vehicle

ActionIn the docs only

Fleet details in Fidoo follow your own vehicle records once this action is in the scenario: it edits a car or van that Fidoo already knows.

When to use it
a company car is reassigned in the sheet your office manager keeps, and travel expenses should point to the updated vehicle.
Watch out
a vehicle bought recently goes through Add a Vehicle; this module only touches entries you can already see with List Vehicles.
Expense Management Fidoo47

Update an Account Assignment

ActionIn the docs only

Update an Account Assignment edits an account assignment in Fidoo, the link that tells an expense where it belongs in the books.

When to use it
your chart of accounts changes in the accounting software, and the assignments in Fidoo need the same update.
Watch out
every bundle it processes counts as one operation on your plan, so feed it only the assignments that actually changed rather than the full list.
Expense Management Fidoo48

Update an Accounting Category

ActionIn the docs only

Employees keep picking the right category because this action renames or adjusts an accounting category that already lives in Fidoo.

When to use it
finance merges two spending categories in its main ledger and wants Fidoo to reflect the new wording before the next expense reports come in.
Watch out
Delete an Accounting Category removes it for good, so prefer this update whenever a rename is all you need.
Expense Management Fidoo49

Update an Expense

ActionIn the docs only

An expense already filed in Fidoo gets corrected or completed from the scenario, which spares your finance team from chasing people for edits.

When to use it
after List Expense Items, when an approval tool or a spreadsheet holds the missing detail and it should be written back onto the expense.
Watch out
if the change you need is not covered by any module, Make an API Call reaches it with the same connection.

FAQ

Questions about Expense Management Fidoo and Make

01Is the Expense Management Fidoo Make integration free?
Yes, on Make's side. Expense Management Fidoo is a standard app, so it works 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. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) lift those limits, with a minimum interval of 1 minute and unlimited active scenarios. Usage is counted in operations each month. Your Fidoo subscription is a separate matter that this page does not cover.
02What do you need to connect Expense Management Fidoo to Make?
You need an active Fidoo account and a user with the Main Administrator role, or the permission to manage API keys. In Fidoo, open Settings, then Company, then API Key Management, and generate a key. In Make, add any Expense Management Fidoo module, click Create a connection, give it a name if you like and paste the key. The same connection then serves all 49 modules of the app, so you only do this once per Fidoo company.
03Can Expense Management Fidoo start a scenario in real time?
No. The app has no trigger module at all, neither scheduled nor instant, so Fidoo never calls Make when something changes. You have two ways to start. Put a Fidoo search such as List Card Transactions first and let Make run the scenario on its schedule, every 15 minutes by default and down to 1 minute on paid plans. Or open the scenario with another app's trigger, for example a new row in a sheet, and use Fidoo modules as the following steps.
04What if a Fidoo module you need is missing?
Use Make an API Call. It sends a request to any endpoint of the Fidoo API with the connection you already created, so you can reach what the 34 actions and 15 searches leave out. You write the request yourself, which means reading Fidoo's API documentation first. Keep in mind that Make marks this app's documentation as AI-generated from Fidoo's sources, so confirm any detail that matters directly with Fidoo before building on it.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Expense Management Fidoo?
It depends on where your automations already live. On Make, the app comes with 49 ready modules, a visual editor and a connection that takes an API key and a few clicks. The same app may also be available as an n8n node; check that before deciding. The useful criteria are the tool your team already knows, the modules each side offers for the actions you need, and how each platform counts usage. Pick the one that covers your scenario with the fewest workarounds.
