What you can automate

What can the KlickTipp Make integration do for you?

The KlickTipp Make integration links your KlickTipp account to Make, a visual tool where you build a scenario (the automation itself) out of modules (one brick each: a trigger, an action or a search). Once linked, KlickTipp contacts, tags and opt-in processes can move to and from your other apps without any code.

A sales alert on a hot click. Watch New Events reacts when a subscriber clicks a link or opens an email. Add Get Contact behind it and the full profile lands in your team chat or your CRM while the lead is still warm.

Buyers tagged automatically. An order from your online shop flows into Add or Update Contact, which creates the person or refreshes their record, then Tag Contact puts them in the buyer segment so the right follow-up starts.

Opt-outs respected everywhere. When someone asks your support desk to stop all emails, Unsubscribe Contact carries that request into KlickTipp, so nobody has to remember to do it by hand.

Know the limit before you start: Make marks its KlickTipp documentation as limited, because too little public information exists about the app. Test each module with a test contact, and keep Make troubleshooting close for error messages. If you are new to the editor, Make training walks through the basics.

KlickTipp users sometimes weigh Make against n8n. The n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria side by side.

Connect

How do you connect KlickTipp to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a KlickTipp module

    In a new scenario, click the +, type KlickTipp in the search box and pick any module, Watch New Events for instance. The first time, Make asks for a connection: your KlickTipp account linked once, then reused by every KlickTipp module. Click Create a connection.

  2. 02

    Name the connection

    This step is optional, but a clear name like KlickTipp main account saves confusion later, especially when a colleague opens the scenario or when you run more than one KlickTipp account.

  3. 03

    Authorize and save

    Depending on what the window shows, either approve Make on the KlickTipp page that opens or paste the key KlickTipp gives you. Then click Save. The module can now read your contacts, tags and opt-in processes.

First scenario

Your first scenario with KlickTipp

GoalWhen a new lead signs up in another app, Make adds or updates that contact in KlickTipp and tags it.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + in the middle of the canvas. That empty circle becomes the first module of your automation.

  2. 02

    Start from your lead source

    Pick the trigger of the app where leads arrive, a form tool or your shop for example. Each new sign-up will reach the next module as one bundle, meaning one item passed along.

  3. 03

    Add or update the contact

    Click the + on the right, search for KlickTipp and choose Add or Update Contact. Create the connection, then map the email address from the first module so KlickTipp can spot existing contacts.

  4. 04

    Tag the new arrival

    Add Tag Contact after it, map the contact coming from the previous module and choose the tag that marks new sign-ups as a segment in KlickTipp.

  5. 05

    Test, schedule, switch on

    Click Run once with a test sign-up and read the bundles each module received. Then set the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, and switch the scenario on.

Triggers

What starts a KlickTipp scenario

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

KlickTipp1Watch New Events

Watch New Events

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a webhook event occurs in KlickTipp, such as a tag being added, an email being opened or sent, a link clicked, an SMS sent, and more.”

Your scenario starts the moment something happens around a contact in KlickTipp: a tag gets added, an email is sent or opened, a link is clicked, an SMS goes out. Each event reaches Make as one bundle, ready for the next module to use.

How it fires
instant. KlickTipp calls Make through a webhook as soon as the event happens, so there is no polling schedule to tune.
When to use it
a subscriber clicks the pricing link in your newsletter and a salesperson should hear about it right away.
Watch out
Make marks this app's documentation as limited, so run the scenario once with a test contact and read the bundle before mapping anything.
Modules

Every KlickTipp module, explained

KlickTipp gives you 21 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

KlickTipp1

Add or Update Contact

Action

In Make“Adds a new contact. If a contact with the same email already exists, it will be updated.”

You get a person into your KlickTipp list without checking first whether they are already there. When the email address already exists, KlickTipp refreshes that contact instead of creating a duplicate.

When to use it
a lead fills in a form in another app and should land in KlickTipp with the latest details, whether new or returning.
Watch out
the email address decides between creating and updating, so map it cleanly from the previous module.
KlickTipp2

Delete Contact

Action

In Make“Deletes a contact”

This module removes a contact from your KlickTipp account, for records you no longer have a reason to keep.

When to use it
someone asks for their data to be erased and the request reaches you through a support form or a ticket in another tool.
Watch out
treat a deletion as final and try it on a dummy contact with Run once first. If the goal is only to stop sending, Unsubscribe Contact is the gentler choice.
KlickTipp3

Get Contact

Action

In Make“Returns the complete data of a contact”

With Get Contact, later modules receive the complete record of one contact, so everything KlickTipp stores about that person can be mapped further down the scenario.

When to use it
right after Watch New Events, when the event names a contact but the next app needs the whole profile to be useful.
Watch out
when your starting point is an email address, Search Contact ID gives you the contact ID to map here.
KlickTipp4

Get Data Field

Action

In Make“Gets the ID and the name of a data field”

Returns the ID and the name of one data field in KlickTipp, which tells you exactly which field sits behind a label before a scenario writes into it.

When to use it
you are wiring values from a form into contact records and want to be sure the right field receives each one.
Watch out
it reads one field per run; to see every field in one pass, List Data Fields is the better pick.
KlickTipp5

Get Opt-in Process

Action

In Make“Returns the complete data of an opt-in process”

All the data of one opt-in process comes back from this module, so a scenario can read how that process is set up before sending a contact into it.

When to use it
several sign-up paths exist in your account and a scenario must check the details of one before routing people.
Watch out
it covers a single process; to browse all of them with their IDs and names, start with List Opt-in Processes.
KlickTipp6

Make an API Call

Action

In Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized API call”

Any endpoint of the KlickTipp API becomes reachable from your scenario, using the same connection as every other KlickTipp module. It is the way out when no ready-made module does what you need.

When to use it
you need a KlickTipp operation that the listed modules do not cover.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, and Make's documentation for this app is marked as limited, so keep the API reference from KlickTipp at hand and test with Run once.
KlickTipp7

Search Contact ID

Action

In Make“Returns the contact ID for an email address”

Hand it an email address and it returns the matching contact ID in KlickTipp, an identifier you can map into the modules that follow.

When to use it
an address arrives from a web form, a shop order or a spreadsheet row, and you want to read, tag or update that person in KlickTipp.
Watch out
a search can come back empty when the address is not in your account; try Run once with an unknown address to see what the next module receives.
KlickTipp8

Tag Contact

Action

In Make“Adds one or more tags to a contact”

One or more tags get attached to a contact in a single step, so that person joins the segment those tags define right away.

When to use it
a customer pays in your online shop and should move into the buyer segment without anyone touching the list.
Watch out
have the tag ready before the scenario runs; Create Tag builds a new one and List Tags shows the ones you already have.
KlickTipp9

Unsubscribe Contact

Action

In Make“Unsubscribes a contact, preventing further communication”

Stops further communication with a contact, which makes it the softer option next to Delete Contact when the goal is silence rather than erasure.

When to use it
someone opts out through another channel, a support chat or a reply to your sales team, and KlickTipp has to respect that too.
Watch out
run it on a test address first, because a real subscriber unsubscribed by mistake is hard to win back.
KlickTipp10

Untag Contact

Action

In Make“Removes a tag from a contact”

Takes a tag off a contact, so that person drops out of whatever segment the tag drives while staying in your list.

When to use it
a trial user upgrades to a paid plan and should leave the trial sequence at once.
Watch out
the module description mentions a single tag, unlike Tag Contact which handles several, so plan one Untag Contact per tag you want to remove.
KlickTipp11

Update Contact

Action

In Make“Updates a contact”

Changes the details of a contact that is already in KlickTipp, keeping the record in step with what another tool knows about that person.

When to use it
a member edits their profile in your customer area and KlickTipp should hold the same data.
Watch out
nothing in its description says it creates contacts; when the person may be new, Add or Update Contact covers both cases in one module.
KlickTipp12

Create Tag

Search

In Make“Creates a new manual tag”

A new manual tag appears in your KlickTipp account, set up by the scenario instead of by someone clicking through the dashboard.

When to use it
a product launch or an event registration needs its own segment the moment it goes live in another tool.
Watch out
Make files this module among the searches even though it creates something, so read its output with Run once before mapping it further.
KlickTipp13

Delete Tag

Search

In Make“Deletes a tag”

Removes a tag from your KlickTipp account. It acts on the tag itself, not on one contact, which keeps your tag list tidy after a campaign ends.

When to use it
a webinar is over and its registration tag only clutters the list.
Watch out
to take a single person out of a segment, Untag Contact is the right module; Delete Tag reaches further than that.
KlickTipp14

Get Tag

Search

In Make“Returns the name and description of a tag”

Reads the name and the description of one tag, which turns a bare ID coming from another module into something a person can understand.

When to use it
an alert or a report should show which tag was added in words, not as a number.
Watch out
it reads one tag per run; to browse every tag with its ID and name, List Tags does it in one module.
KlickTipp15

List Contacts

Search

In Make“Lists the IDs of all active contacts”

Returns the IDs of all active contacts, the starting point for any scenario that must go through your whole KlickTipp base.

When to use it
you want to compare your active list against a spreadsheet or copy it into another tool.
Watch out
each contact comes out as its own bundle and carries only an ID, so every module you add after it runs once per contact and counts operations accordingly.
KlickTipp16

List Data Fields

Search

In Make“Lists the IDs and names of all data fields”

Gives you the IDs and names of every data field in your account, a full map of where KlickTipp keeps contact details.

When to use it
you are connecting a new form or CRM and want to line up its fields with the KlickTipp ones in one go.
Watch out
the result describes the structure of your account, not the values stored for any contact; Get Contact reads those.
KlickTipp17

List Opt-in Processes

Search

In Make“Lists the IDs and names of all opt-in processes”

Brings back the IDs and names of all your opt-in processes, handy when you no longer remember which sign-up path is which.

When to use it
a scenario sends new contacts into different opt-in processes and you need the right ID for each route.
Watch out
only IDs and names come back; for the full settings of one process, follow up with Get Opt-in Process.
KlickTipp18

List Tags

Search

In Make“Lists the IDs and names of all tags”

Every tag in your account arrives with its ID and name, which helps when a later module has to find a tag by its label.

When to use it
you are auditing old tags or letting a scenario choose the tag that matches a product name.
Watch out
each tag is a separate bundle, so the modules placed after it run once per tag and use operations on your plan for each.
KlickTipp19

Search Redirect URL

Search

In Make“Search the redirection URL for a specific opt-in process”

Looks up the redirection URL set for a specific opt-in process, so another tool can reuse the exact address KlickTipp works with.

When to use it
a landing page or a message built outside KlickTipp should point people to the same address as that process.
Watch out
the search works per opt-in process, so pick the process first; List Opt-in Processes shows you the options.
KlickTipp20

Search Tagged Contacts

Search

In Make“Returns the IDs and tagging timestamps of all tagged contacts”

Tells you who carries tags and when each tag was applied, by returning contact IDs together with their tagging timestamps.

When to use it
a follow-up should reach the people tagged after a campaign started, or a report needs dates.
Watch out
you receive IDs and timestamps, not names; pair it with Get Contact only when you need profiles, since every extra module adds operations.
KlickTipp21

Update Tag

Search

In Make“Updates a tag”

Edits an existing tag, for instance the name or description that Get Tag reads, without recreating it or touching the contacts that carry it.

When to use it
a campaign changes direction and its tag label should reflect that across the account.
Watch out
like Create Tag, Make lists it among the searches; check the returned bundle with Run once before relying on it.

FAQ

KlickTipp and Make: common questions

01Is the KlickTipp Make integration free?
Yes, KlickTipp is a standard app in Make, so it works on the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution per run and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) drop the interval to 1 minute, allow unlimited active scenarios and count usage in operations per month. Because Watch New Events is an instant trigger, the scheduling interval matters less here than the number of operations your scenarios use.
02What do you need to connect KlickTipp to Make?
A KlickTipp account and a Make account are enough to start. Make's documentation lists no prerequisites for this app and no specific connection steps, so the generic flow applies: add a KlickTipp module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, authorize Make on the KlickTipp page or paste the key KlickTipp provides, then save. That single connection is reused by all 22 modules, including Make an API Call. Once saved, the connection appears in the list whenever you add another KlickTipp module.
03Does the KlickTipp trigger fire in real time?
Yes. Watch New Events is an instant trigger: KlickTipp calls Make through a webhook as soon as an event happens, such as a tag being added, an email sent or opened, a link clicked or an SMS sent. The scenario does not wait for a polling interval. It is the only trigger in the app; every other module is an action or a search that runs after a trigger, whether that trigger comes from KlickTipp or from another app.
04What if a KlickTipp module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It reaches any endpoint of the KlickTipp API with the same connection as the other modules, which covers what the 22 listed modules do not. Expect some trial and error: Make states that its KlickTipp documentation is limited because too little public information exists about the app, so test each request with Run once and read the returned bundle before building on it. Keep Make troubleshooting in mind when an error message appears.
05Should you use Make or n8n for KlickTipp?
It depends on the tool your team already works in. On the Make side, KlickTipp comes with 22 modules: an instant trigger, 11 actions and 10 searches, plus Make an API Call for anything else. Many apps also have an n8n node, so check whether KlickTipp has one and what it covers before deciding. Compare the two on the modules you actually need and on the tool your colleagues can maintain, rather than on reputation.
