What you can automate

What does the IQDial Make integration do?

It links your IQDial account to Make so that contacts move in and out of IQDial on their own. In Make you build a scenario, the automation itself, out of modules, one brick per app. IQDial brings 3 of them, all actions: Add a New Contact, Create Contact File and Get Contacts.

Leads reach the dialer untouched. A web form or a CRM starts the scenario, and Add a New Contact places the person in IQDial, so your callers stop retyping names and numbers.

Contacts arrive in bulk. Create Contact File is the module to look at when a whole set of people needs to reach IQDial together. The documentation gives no detail on it, so test it with Run once before relying on it.

IQDial data feeds other tools. Get Contacts reads back what IQDial holds, and the next module in the scenario can pass it to a spreadsheet or a report.

Two limits to know. IQDial has no trigger in Make, so a scenario starts from another app or from Make's schedule. It also has no Make an API Call module, so what the 3 modules cannot do stays out of reach here. When a run fails, the Make troubleshooting guide helps you read the error, and Make pricing explains how operations are counted. If you are still choosing a platform, read n8n vs Make.

Connect

How do you connect IQDial to Make?

  1. 01

    Copy your API token

    Log in to IQDial, click your profile icon and choose My Account. The API token sits in the account section: copy it. You need an active IQDial account for this, since the token is what lets Make act for you.

  2. 02

    Open the connection window

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

  3. 03

    Name it and paste the token

    The Connection name field is optional, but a clear name helps when several accounts exist. Paste the token you copied, or follow the instructions shown on screen, then save. Make now reads your IQDial account.

First scenario

Your first scenario with IQDial

GoalWhen a lead fills in a form in another app, Make adds that person to IQDial as a new contact.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. IQDial has no trigger, so this first module comes from the app where your leads land.

  2. 02

    Set the starting app

    Search your form or CRM app, pick its module and connect it. Each lead it returns travels as a bundle, one item passed from a module to the next.

  3. 03

    Add the IQDial module

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search IQDial and choose Add a New Contact. Link your account with Create a connection if you have not done it yet.

  4. 04

    Map the lead's details

    Fill the module's fields by picking the data that the previous module returned. Make shows those values in a list, so you click them instead of typing them.

  5. 05

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once. Make runs the scenario a single time and shows the bundles each module received. Open IQDial and check that the contact is there.

  6. 06

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the clock on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, then switch the scenario on. Each module run counts as one operation on your plan.

Modules

What can IQDial do in Make?

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

IQDial1

Add a New Contact

ActionIn the docs only

You get one new person in IQDial for every bundle the scenario receives, without anyone opening the dialer. It is an action, so it works on a single contact at a time.

When to use it
a lead signs up on your site and should be ready to call as soon as the scenario runs.
Watch out
the doc lists no fields for this module, so check in the editor what it asks for before mapping.
IQDial2

Create Contact File

ActionIn the docs only

This one is worth a look when contacts should reach IQDial as a file rather than one by one. The documentation gives it no description, so only its name hints at what it builds.

When to use it
a batch of prospects from an event has to land in IQDial as a group.
Watch out
on the Free plan, files are capped at 5 MB, and a Run once test shows what the module really expects.
IQDial3

Get Contacts

ActionIn the docs only

Here the flow goes the other way: IQDial data comes back into Make, ready for the modules that follow. The doc does not describe it, so how many contacts one run returns is something you find out with a test.

When to use it
you want your IQDial contacts copied into a sheet or a reporting tool.
Watch out
read the bundles after Run once before wiring the next module, so you know the shape of the data.

FAQ

IQDial and Make: common questions

01Is the IQDial Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. IQDial is a standard app, 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 lower the interval to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. IQDial itself needs an active account, and its own subscription is set on the IQDial pricing page.
02What do you need to connect IQDial to Make?
An active IQDial account and its API token. In IQDial, click your profile icon, open your account page and copy the API token shown in the account section. Keep it private, since it lets Make act on your behalf. Then add any IQDial module in Make, click Create a connection, optionally give it a name, and paste the token. The connection is created once and every IQDial module in your scenarios reuses it.
03Can an IQDial scenario start on its own in real time?
No. IQDial has no trigger module in Make, neither scheduled nor instant, so nothing inside IQDial can start a scenario. Put another app first, such as the form or CRM where leads arrive, and let its trigger launch the flow. The other route is Make's own schedule on the first module: every 15 minutes by default, 15 minutes at least on the Free plan and 1 minute on paid plans.
04What if the IQDial module you need is missing?
It depends on the need. IQDial offers 3 modules in Make and no Make an API Call module, so you cannot send a custom request to IQDial from here. Check first whether Add a New Contact, Create Contact File or Get Contacts covers the job. If not, the gap has to be handled in another app of the scenario, or the team can look at the case with you through the help block on this page.
05Should you use Make or n8n for IQDial?
It depends on what you need to confirm. On Make, IQDial gives 3 action modules, no trigger and no API Call module, and it runs from the Free plan. Before choosing n8n, check whether an IQDial node exists there and what it covers, because this page documents only Make. Then compare the two lists of actions against your real use case, for example adding leads or exporting contacts, rather than judging the tools in general. The comparison page linked above gives the broader criteria.
