Interact Make integrationAutomate Interact with Make.

What happens to a quiz lead after it lands in Interact? The Interact Make integration gives you 1 instant trigger, Watch Leads, that fires as soon as one of your quizzes collects a lead. This page shows marketers how to connect the account and build a first scenario that routes each lead.

What you can automate

What can the Interact Make integration do for you?

The integration links your Interact account to Make so that each new quiz lead starts a scenario, the automation you build in Make as a chain of modules. A module is one brick of that chain. Interact brings one of them, a trigger that reacts to new leads, and the rest of the scenario is built with other apps.

Your sales team hears about a lead right away. Watch Leads fires when a quiz collects a lead, and the next module can post it wherever your team already works, a chat channel, a shared inbox, a task list.

Your CRM fills itself. Put a CRM module after Watch Leads and each lead becomes a contact without anyone copying details by hand. The same idea works with a spreadsheet if that is where you track campaigns.

Follow-up starts while the quiz is still fresh. Chain an email tool after the trigger to add the lead to a list. Make counts one operation (one module run on one item) each time a module processes a lead, so a two-module scenario uses two per lead.

Know the limits before you plan. Interact has no action or search module in Make, so Make cannot create quizzes or read old leads there; it only listens for new ones. Make itself warns that its documentation for this app is limited. If you are still weighing tools, the Make review and the n8n vs Make comparison lay out the criteria, and Make training covers scenario building from scratch.

Connect

How do you connect Interact to Make?

  1. 01

    Add the Interact module

    In a scenario, click the + and search for Interact, then pick Watch Leads. The module asks for a connection, meaning your Interact account linked to Make once and reused later. Click Create a connection to start.

  2. 02

    Name the connection

    Giving the connection a name is optional, but it helps when you run several Interact accounts, for example one per client or per brand. Pick something you will recognize in a dropdown later.

  3. 03

    Authorize and save

    Make then either sends you to an Interact page to approve access or asks for a key that Interact gives you. Follow what the window shows, then click Save. The connection now appears in the module.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Interact

GoalWhen a quiz collects a new lead in Interact, Make passes it to the app your team uses to follow up.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big + to place the first module. Everything you add afterwards hangs off this starting point.

  2. 02

    Place Watch Leads

    Search for Interact, choose Watch Leads and pick your connection with Create a connection if none exists yet. Once connected, Make lists what it can read from your account.

  3. 03

    Add the destination

    Click the + on the right of Watch Leads and add a module from another app, a CRM or a sheet for instance. Map the lead data from Watch Leads into its fields.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once, then fill in your own quiz so Interact collects a test lead. Open the bundles, the items passed between modules, and check exactly what Interact sent before you rely on it.

  5. 05

    Switch it on

    Check the schedule on the first module, then turn the scenario on. From now on each new lead goes through without you touching the quiz dashboard.

Triggers

What starts an Interact scenario

1 module starts a scenario when something happens in Interact. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Interact as soon as it happens.

Interact1Watch Leads

Watch Leads

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new lead is collected from quiz.”

Watch Leads gives you each new lead the moment your quiz collects it, so the rest of the scenario can act on it straight away. Every lead arrives as its own bundle for the next module.

How it fires
instant, Interact calls Make through a webhook as soon as the lead comes in, so there is no polling interval to wait for.
When to use it
a lead magnet quiz on your site whose contacts should reach sales or your email tool without an export.
Watch out
Make's documentation for Interact is limited, so run a test lead with Run once to see which details really come through.

FAQ

Interact and Make: common questions

01Is the Interact Make integration free?
Yes, Interact is a standard app in Make, so it works from the Free plan. That plan gives you 2 active scenarios, runs of 5 minutes at most, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer, with scheduled runs spaced at least 15 minutes apart. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes per run. Make counts usage in operations, one per module per item, so a Watch Leads scenario with one extra module uses two operations for each lead.
02What do you need to connect Interact to Make?
You need an Interact account and a Make account. Make's documentation lists no special prerequisite for this app and says its information on Interact is limited. The generic flow applies: add Watch Leads, click Create a connection, optionally name it, then either approve access on an Interact page or paste the key Interact provides, and click Save. The connection is then reused by any future Interact module in your scenarios, so you only do this once per account.
03Does the Interact trigger in Make work in real time?
Yes. Watch Leads is an instant trigger: Interact calls Make through a webhook as soon as a quiz collects a lead, and the lightning badge on the module shows it. There is no 15 minute polling wait, unlike scheduled triggers that Make checks on the scenario's schedule. To test it, click Run once in the editor and submit a quiz yourself so a real lead comes through, then read the bundle Make received to confirm the data you plan to map.
04What if the Interact module you need is missing in Make?
It depends on what you want. Interact only has Watch Leads in Make, with no action, no search and no Make an API Call module, so Make cannot create quizzes or fetch past leads. What you can do is start from Watch Leads and hand the lead to another app that has the modules you need, a CRM, a sheet or an email tool. If your case goes beyond that, the Hack'celeration team can look at it with you through the help form on this page.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Interact?
It depends on your criteria rather than on a winner. On Make, Interact offers one instant trigger, Watch Leads, and works from the Free plan, which suits a team that wants to send quiz leads to other apps in a visual editor. The same app often has an n8n node too, so check whether the module you need exists on each side before choosing. Compare what each tool offers for the apps downstream of Interact, since that is where most of the scenario lives.
