What you can automate

What does the GoodBarber Make integration let you automate?

The GoodBarber Make integration links the mobile app you built in GoodBarber to Make, a visual tool where you chain steps without writing code. Each chain is a scenario (the automation you build), and each step is a module: a trigger that starts it, an action, or a search. Your subscribers, prospects, users, groups and bookings become data Make can react to and update.

Sorted members from day one. When someone creates an account, Watch New User starts the scenario and Add User To Group files that person into the right group, so gated sections of your app open for them without a manual pass in the back office.

A gift subscription without the paperwork. A promoter signs up as a prospect; Watch New Prospect catches it, and Create An Internal Subscription hands them free access. Later, Update Expiration Date For Internal Subscription lets you extend that gift.

Context your team can read. When a subscription lapses, Watch New Expired Subscriber fires and Update Internal Note For Expired Subscriber writes the reason or the next step on the member record, where support will see it.

What the listed modules do not cover, Make an API Call can reach through the same connection. The documentation gives no numeric limit for this app. GoodBarber may also have an n8n node; the n8n vs Make page lays out the criteria. To weigh the tool itself, read our Make review, or learn it step by step with the Make training.

Connect

How do you connect your GoodBarber account to Make?

  1. 01

    Create a key set in GoodBarber

    In your GoodBarber back office, open Settings in the left sidebar, then Public APIs and + Create a new key set. Name the set, tick the permissions your scenario needs, click Add key, then View details to see the App ID and Token.

  2. 02

    Open the connection window in Make

    Add any GoodBarber module to your scenario and click Create a connection. The connection is your GoodBarber account linked to Make once; every GoodBarber module reuses it. You can give it a label in Connection name if you run more than one app.

  3. 03

    Paste the App ID and the Token

    Put the App ID in the field called ID of your appz and the Token in API Key, then click Save. If Make asks you to authenticate the account and confirm access, accept, and the connection is ready for every module.

First scenario

Your first scenario: new users sorted into a group

GoalWhen a new user is created in GoodBarber, Make adds that user to the group you picked.

  1. 01

    Start a blank scenario

    On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the large + in the middle of the editor. That empty circle becomes the first module, the one that decides when everything runs.

  2. 02

    Pick Watch New User

    Search for GoodBarber, choose Watch New User, click Create a webhook, then Create a connection and paste your App ID and Token. The lightning badge shows GoodBarber will call Make itself.

  3. 03

    Add the group action

    Click the + on the right of the trigger, pick Add User To Group, and choose the group. Map the user from the trigger into the user field: Make shows the data the first module returns so you can click it in.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once, then create a test account in your GoodBarber app. Each module shows a bubble with the bundles it received, a bundle being one item passed along, here one user. Open them to check the right person landed in the group.

  5. 05

    Switch the scenario on

    Turn the scenario on with the toggle. With an instant trigger, the 15 minute default schedule does not hold you back: GoodBarber calls Make as soon as a user is created, and each module run counts as one operation on your plan.

Triggers

What can start a GoodBarber scenario?

5 modules start a scenario when something happens in GoodBarber. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by GoodBarber as soon as it happens.

GoodBarber1Watch New Active Subscriber

Watch New Active Subscriber

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a prospect subscribes to a product.”

You hear about a new paying member the moment a prospect subscribes to one of your products, and the scenario receives that subscriber as a bundle ready to use.

How it fires
instant, GoodBarber calls Make through a webhook as soon as the subscription happens, so no polling interval applies.
When to use it
pick it for anything that should follow a purchase, such as writing a first note on the member with Update Internal Note For Active Subscriber or alerting your team in another app.
Watch out
create the webhook before the connection, or the trigger stays silent.
GoodBarber2Watch New Appointment Booking

Watch New Appointment Booking

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new appointment is booked by a user.”

Every booking a user makes in your app reaches Make right away, which turns your GoodBarber calendar into a starting point for confirmations and team alerts in other tools.

How it fires
instant, GoodBarber pings Make through a webhook as soon as a user books an appointment.
When to use it
a salon, a coach or a clinic that takes bookings in the app and wants each one copied to a shared agenda or a staff chat without retyping.
Watch out
the GoodBarber modules have no action on bookings, so the follow-up happens in another app or through Make an API Call.
GoodBarber3Watch New Expired Subscriber

Watch New Expired Subscriber

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when an active subscription expires.”

You find out when an active subscription runs out, which gives you a clean moment to win the member back or record why access stopped.

How it fires
instant, GoodBarber notifies Make by webhook as soon as the subscription expires.
When to use it
chain it with Update Internal Note For Expired Subscriber to log the lapse, or with a CRM from another app to open a renewal task for your sales lead.
Watch out
it fires once the access has ended; to extend a gifted subscription before that, use Update Expiration Date For Internal Subscription.
GoodBarber4Watch New Prospect

Watch New Prospect

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new prospect signs up.”

Each new sign up that has not bought anything yet lands in Make as a prospect, so leads coming through your app never sit unnoticed in the back office.

How it fires
instant, the app calls Make through a webhook as soon as the prospect signs up.
When to use it
send the lead to your CRM, or reward partners by pairing it with Create An Internal Subscription so they get access without paying.
Watch out
prospects, users and subscribers each have their own trigger, so pick the one that matches the list you follow.
GoodBarber5Watch New User

Watch New User

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new user is created.”

Any account created in your GoodBarber app starts the scenario, with the new user passed along as one bundle you can map into the next module.

How it fires
instant, GoodBarber calls Make by webhook as soon as the user is created.
When to use it
the natural starting point for onboarding, for instance placing members in a group with Add User To Group or adding them to a mailing tool in another app.
Watch out
users and prospects are separate records in GoodBarber, so pick the trigger that matches the list you actually care about.
Modules

What can GoodBarber do inside a scenario?

GoodBarber gives you 14 modules in 3 groups. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Actions

8 modules
GoodBarber1

Add User To Group

Action

In Make“Adds a user to an existing group.”

Places a user in a group that already exists in your app, so the content reserved for that group opens up without you touching the back office.

When to use it
right after Watch New User, or when a purchase in another tool should unlock a members area.
Watch out
the group must exist first; Find a Group helps you fetch it by name.
GoodBarber2

Create An Internal Subscription

Action

In Make“Creates an internal subscription for a prospect. Use this action to give a subscription as a gift.”

Gives a prospect a subscription that you grant yourself, the kind GoodBarber uses for gifts, so they get paid content without going through checkout.

When to use it
rewarding a partner, a contest winner or an employee the moment their sign up comes in through Watch New Prospect.
Watch out
it is built for prospects, not for people who already subscribe.
GoodBarber3

Make an API Call

Action

In Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized API call.”

Reaches any endpoint of the GoodBarber API with the connection you already set up, which covers the jobs the other modules on this page leave out.

When to use it
you need something the list lacks, for example acting on the bookings that Watch New Appointment Booking reports.
Watch out
you build the request yourself, so keep the GoodBarber API reference open next to Make.
GoodBarber4

Remove User From Group

Action

In Make“Removes a user from an existing group.”

Takes a user out of a group, which closes the sections of your app that group was allowed to see and keeps access in line with who still belongs.

When to use it
when a membership ends in your billing tool or a member leaves a team, to tidy access without logging in.
Watch out
the user stays in GoodBarber; only the group link goes away.
GoodBarber5

Send Push Notification

Action

In Make“Sends a push notification by platform.”

Sends a push notification to your app's audience, chosen by platform, so a news item or an offer lands straight on their phones.

When to use it
announcing an event added in another tool, or a restock recorded in your shop system, without writing the push by hand.
Watch out
run it once per event, never inside a loop, or your audience gets the same alert several times.
GoodBarber6

Update Expiration Date For Internal Subscription

Action

In Make“Updates the expiration date of an internal subscription (subscription gift).”

Moves the end date of a gifted internal subscription, so you can stretch or shorten free access without cancelling and granting it again.

When to use it
a partner renews their agreement in your CRM and their app access should follow the new term.
Watch out
it only touches internal subscriptions, not the ones people bought themselves.
GoodBarber7

Update Internal Note For Active Subscriber

Action

In Make“Updates an internal note for an active subscriber.”

Writes a private note on a paying subscriber's record, giving your support team context they can read in GoodBarber without asking around.

When to use it
logging where a subscriber came from, or a support ticket number from your helpdesk, the moment it exists.
Watch out
it needs the subscriber first, so place Find an Active Subscriber or the matching trigger before it.
GoodBarber8

Update Internal Note For Prospect

Action

In Make“Updates an internal note for a prospect.”

Adds a private note to a prospect, so whoever follows up with that lead sees the source, the campaign or the last exchange in one place.

When to use it
after Watch New Prospect, to stamp the form or the ad that brought the person in.
Watch out
once the prospect subscribes, write on the active subscriber record with its own module instead.

Searches

5 modules
GoodBarber9

Find a Group

Search

In Make“Finds a group by name.”

Looks up a group by its name and hands its details to the next module, so your scenario never depends on an ID copied by hand.

When to use it
before Add User To Group or Remove User From Group, when the group name comes from a form or a spreadsheet.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or several bundles; plan for the empty case.
GoodBarber10

Find an Active Subscriber

Search

In Make“Finds an active subscriber by ID.”

Pulls up one paying subscriber from their ID, so a scenario started somewhere else can read or update that member's record in your app.

When to use it
a support request in your helpdesk carries the subscriber ID and you want the matching record before adding a note.
Watch out
it searches by ID, so the tool that starts the scenario must store that ID.
GoodBarber11

Find an Expired Subscriber

Search

In Make“Finds an expired subscriber by ID.”

Retrieves a former subscriber by ID, which lets a win back scenario check who you are dealing with before sending an offer.

When to use it
your CRM flags an old customer and you want their lapsed GoodBarber record to decide the next step.
Watch out
it covers expired records only; current members have their own search, Find an Active Subscriber.
GoodBarber12

Find an User

Search

In Make“Finds a user by login.”

Finds a user from their login, the identifier people actually type, so you can act on accounts named in forms, sheets or messages.

When to use it
a coach sends a list of logins to add to a class group, and each one must be matched first.
Watch out
when nothing matches, the next modules get no bundle, so add a filter or a fallback path.
GoodBarber13

Find a Prospect

Search

In Make“Finds a prospect by ID.”

Brings back one prospect from their ID, useful when another tool stores that ID and you need the full lead before acting on it.

When to use it
your sales pipeline marks a lead as qualified and you want to add a note or grant a gift subscription.
Watch out
it looks up prospects only; paying and former members each have their own search module.

Other modules

1 module
GoodBarber14

Update Internal Note For Expired Subscriber

Action

In Make“Updates an internal note for an expired subscriber.”

Records a private note on someone whose subscription ended, keeping the reason for leaving or the promised follow up right on their record.

When to use it
just after Watch New Expired Subscriber, to log the lapse and the offer you plan to make.
Watch out
it only reaches expired records; for current members use the active subscriber version.

FAQ

GoodBarber and Make: common questions

01Is the GoodBarber Make integration free?
Yes, GoodBarber is a standard app in Make, so it works 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 (Core, Pro, Teams, Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and count usage in credits each month. Your GoodBarber subscription is a separate matter that depends on your own account.
02What does it take to connect GoodBarber to Make?
You need a GoodBarber account with an app already created, plus a key set from the Public APIs section of its settings. That key set gives you an App ID and a Token. In Make, you paste the App ID into the field called ID of your appz and the Token into API Key, then save. When you create the key set, select the permissions your scenarios need, and keep the App ID and Token somewhere safe.
03Do GoodBarber triggers in Make run in real time?
Yes. All five GoodBarber triggers are instant: new active subscriber, appointment booking, expired subscriber, prospect and user. GoodBarber calls Make through a webhook as soon as the event happens, so the scenario does not wait for the 15 minute default schedule that applies to polled triggers. When you add one of them, click Create a webhook before Create a connection, otherwise the trigger has nothing to receive the events. Each module run still counts as one operation on your plan.
04What if a GoodBarber module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It reaches any endpoint of the GoodBarber API with the connection you already have, so you can cover what the 19 listed modules leave out, such as acting on bookings. You write the request yourself, which asks for a look at the GoodBarber API reference. The Make documentation lists no numeric limit for this app, so the main constraints are the ones of your Make plan and the permissions of your key set.
05Is Make or n8n better suited to GoodBarber?
It depends on the tool your team already runs. On Make, GoodBarber has 19 ready modules, including five instant triggers and Make an API Call for the rest, and it works from the Free plan. GoodBarber may also have an n8n node, so check the n8n side for the exact actions it offers. Compare the two lists against the steps your scenario needs, and pick the platform where your other automations already live to keep everything in one place.
