What you can automate

What can the lemlist Make integration do for your outreach?

The lemlist Make integration links your lemlist account to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario (the automation itself, a chain of small bricks called modules). Leads can enter campaigns, get checked, paused or restarted, and lemlist activity can wake up the rest of your tools, with nobody exporting a spreadsheet.

Cleaner campaigns from the first send. A sales rep captures a contact in another app, Verify Email Address checks the address, and Add Lead in Campaign drops it into the right sequence. Bounces go down because bad addresses never get in.

Fewer awkward follow-ups. When a prospect books a call or signs, Pause a lead stops that person in every campaign at once. If the deal falls through, Start a lead puts them back.

Activity that reaches the right people. Watch Activities fires as soon as something happens in lemlist, so a scenario can pass it on to your CRM or your team chat. Add Get Campaign Stats or Get Credits when a manager wants numbers without logging in.

There are limits. The listed modules cover leads, campaigns, unsubscribes and enrichment; for anything else, Make an API Call reaches the endpoints described in the lemlist API documentation. If you are still choosing a platform, the n8n vs Make comparison helps, and the lemlist n8n integration page covers the same app on n8n. To get comfortable with the editor first, the Make training starts from zero.

Connect

How do you connect your lemlist account to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a lemlist module

    Open a scenario, click the + and search for lemlist. Pick any module, for example Get Credits, then click Create a connection. A connection is your lemlist account linked to Make, done once.

  2. 02

    Name it and authorize

    Give the connection a name if you like (useful when several team accounts coexist). Then follow what lemlist asks: authorize Make on the lemlist page, or paste the key lemlist gives you.

  3. 03

    Save and check

    Click Save. Back in the module, the connection appears in the list. Run the module once with Run once: if Get Credits returns your remaining credits, the link works.

First scenario

Your first scenario: verify a contact, then add it to a campaign

GoalWhen a new contact shows up in another app, Make checks the email with lemlist and adds the lead to a campaign.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Choose the app where your contacts arrive: a form tool, a spreadsheet, a CRM.

  2. 02

    Add Verify Email Address

    Click the + on the right of that first module, search lemlist and pick Verify Email Address. Select your connection, then map the email field from the previous module.

  3. 03

    Add Add Lead in Campaign

    Add a third module, Add Lead in Campaign. Once the connection exists, Make lists what it can read in lemlist, so you pick the campaign instead of typing an ID. Map the email and name.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once and create a test contact in the source app. Open each module's bubble to read the bundle it received, the item passed along. Check what the verification returned.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the schedule on the first module (every 15 minutes by default, unless it is an instant trigger) and switch the scenario on. Each module run on one bundle counts as an operation on your plan.

Triggers

What can start a lemlist scenario?

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

lemlist1Watch Emails (deprecated)

Watch Emails (deprecated)

Instant trigger

In MakeTriggers when a new event regarding an email occurs.

This older trigger starts a scenario whenever a new event about an email happens in lemlist. Make still lists it, but flags it as deprecated, which is a hint to build new work elsewhere.

How it fires
instant. lemlist calls Make through a webhook as soon as the event happens, so there is no polling interval to set.
When to use it
you inherited a scenario built on it and it still does its job.
Watch out
Make gives no replacement for it. For a new scenario, look at Watch Activities, the other instant trigger of the app, and read its bundles in Run once to see whether they cover your need.
lemlist2Watch Activities

Watch Activities

Instant trigger

In MakeTriggers when a new activity occurs in lemlist.

Watch Activities launches your scenario each time a new activity occurs in lemlist, which makes it the natural entry point when campaign events must reach another tool: a CRM, a team chat, a sheet your manager reads.

How it fires
instant. lemlist warns Make through a webhook the moment the activity happens (the lightning badge on the module).
When to use it
you want the rest of your stack to react to what happens in your campaigns without anyone watching lemlist.
Watch out
click Run once, then trigger an activity in lemlist, and read the bundle before mapping anything downstream.
Modules

Every lemlist module, and when to pick it

lemlist gives you 26 modules in 5 groups. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Campaign

2 modules
lemlist1

List Campaigns (deprecated)

Search

In MakeRetrieves a list of all campaigns.

Returns the campaigns of your lemlist account, one bundle each. Make marks it deprecated, so it mostly lives on in older scenarios that nobody has rebuilt yet.

When to use it
only to keep an existing scenario running while you plan the switch.
Watch out
for new work, List All Campaigns also lists your campaigns and carries no deprecated flag; test it with Run once before switching.
lemlist2

Export Statistics/Leads of a Campaign

Action

In MakeDownloads a CSV file that contains all the statistics or leads of a campaign.

Pulls a CSV file holding either the statistics or the leads of one campaign, ready to drop into a storage app or attach to an email for a client report.

When to use it
a campaign ends and an account manager needs the raw file, not a screenshot.
Watch out
on the Free plan Make handles files up to 5 MB, so test the export of your biggest campaign with Run once.

Lead

3 modules
lemlist3

Add a Lead

ActionIn the docs only

The lemlist doc lists this module in its Lead group with no description. Going by its name, it creates a lead, but Make does not document the fields.

When to use it
open it in the editor and compare it with Add Lead in Campaign, which is described and asks you for a campaign.
Watch out
test with Run once on a fake address before any real list.
lemlist4

Get a Lead

ActionIn the docs only

Another module the documentation names without explaining. Its name suggests it reads one lead, which is all anyone can say from the doc as it stands today.

When to use it
for a lookup, Get a Lead by Email or ID is described and accepts either key, so it is easier to reason about.
Watch out
read the bundle in Run once before trusting any field.
lemlist5

Delete a Lead

ActionIn the docs only

Listed in the Lead group with no official description; the name points to removing a lead from lemlist. Treat it as destructive until a test proves otherwise.

When to use it
you want to automate a cleanup, and a Run once on a test lead has shown you what it deletes.
Watch out
if you only need someone out of one sequence, Delete Lead from Campaign is described and narrower.

Unsubscribe

3 modules
lemlist6

List Unsubscribes

Search

In MakeRetrieves a list of all people who are unsubscribed.

Fetches everybody on your lemlist unsubscribe list, one bundle per person, so another tool can stay in sync with who said no.

When to use it
your newsletter tool or CRM must honor the same opt-outs as lemlist.
Watch out
each bundle sent to the next module costs an operation there; a long list multiplies the count fast.
lemlist7

Add Email to Unsubscribes

Action

In MakeAdds a lead in the unsubscribed list.

Puts an address on the lemlist unsubscribe list, so no campaign writes to that person again. It is the respectful answer to a "please stop" received somewhere else.

When to use it
a prospect opts out through your website form or replies to a support inbox.
Watch out
map the email field carefully; a wrong mapping blocks the wrong contact.
lemlist8

Delete an Email from Unsubscribes

Action

In MakeDeletes a lead in the unsubscribed list.

Takes an address back off the unsubscribe list. Useful after a mistake, or when someone explicitly asks to hear from you again.

When to use it
a contact who opted out signs up again through a form and wants your content.
Watch out
keep a trace of that consent in your CRM before running it, so you can show why the address came back.

Other

1 module

For the list of available endpoints, refer to the Lemlist API Documentation.

lemlist9

Make an API Call

Action

In MakePerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.

Your escape hatch: it sends any authorized request to the lemlist API with the connection you already set up, for the jobs no ready-made module covers.

When to use it
you found an endpoint in the lemlist API documentation that the list here lacks.
Watch out
the available endpoints are the ones in that API documentation; read it before building so you know what to send.

Other modules

17 modules
lemlist10

Add Lead in Campaign

Action

In MakeAdds a lead in a specific campaign.

Drops a lead straight into a chosen campaign, so the sequence starts without anyone importing a CSV. It turns a contact into outreach in one step.

When to use it
a demo request, a webinar signup or a qualified row in a sheet should turn into outreach.
Watch out
run Verify Email Address before it if your sources are messy, to keep bounces away.
lemlist11

Delete Lead from Campaign

Action

In MakeDeletes a lead from a specific campaign.

Removes one lead from one specific campaign and leaves the rest of their lemlist life alone. Narrow and predictable.

When to use it
a prospect lands in the wrong sequence, say the enterprise one instead of the startup one, and must move.
Watch out
to stop someone everywhere at once, Pause a lead acts on all campaigns and can be undone.
lemlist12

Enrich Lead

Action

In MakeEnrich lead data with email addresses, phone numbers and Linkedin data.

Fills a lead in with email addresses, phone numbers and LinkedIn data, so your reps open a richer record instead of a bare name.

When to use it
leads arrive from an event list with little more than a name and a company.
Watch out
the result only reflects what lemlist found; map each field into your CRM only after reading a real bundle in Run once.
lemlist13

Find Email

Action

In MakeFind your lead's email address using waterfall enrichment. Provide the available lead information as input, and the module will use over five data providers to find the email.

Hunts for a lead's email address by trying more than five data providers one after the other, a method lemlist calls waterfall enrichment. You pass whatever you know about the person.

When to use it
you have a name and a company but no address to write to.
Watch out
follow it with Verify Email Address before adding the lead to a campaign.
lemlist14

Find Phone Number

Action

In MakeFind your lead's phone number using waterfall enrichment. Provide the available lead information as input, and the module will use over five data providers to find the phone number.

Same waterfall approach as Find Email, but the goal is a phone number: lemlist queries more than five providers from the details you feed it.

When to use it
your campaign mixes email and calls, and a rep must dial the hottest leads.
Watch out
map as much as you know (name, company, LinkedIn URL if you have it) since the search only works with the input provided.
lemlist15

Get a Lead by Email (deprecated)

Action

In MakeRetrieves all the information of a specific lead using it's email.

Retrieves everything lemlist knows about a lead from their email address. Make flags it as deprecated, so keep it for older scenarios only.

When to use it
a legacy scenario depends on it and still behaves.
Watch out
Make names no replacement. Get a Lead by Email or ID also looks a lead up by email, and by ID too; compare its bundle in Run once before you migrate.
lemlist16

Get Campaign Stats

Action

In MakeThis module provides campaign statistics, including the number of leads, opens, replies, and more.

Brings back the figures of a campaign (lead count, opens, replies and more) into Make, where you can send them to a sheet, a dashboard or a message.

When to use it
a client or a sales manager wants campaign results in the tool they already read.
Watch out
if they want the full file rather than totals, Export Statistics/Leads of a Campaign returns a CSV instead.
lemlist17

Get Credits

Action

In MakeThis module retrieves credits left in the team.

Tells you how many credits your lemlist team has left. Small module, useful when scenarios run with nobody watching the account.

When to use it
place it before Find Email or Enrich Lead, or in a separate scenario that alerts the account owner.
Watch out
reading your remaining credits is also a simple way to check that a fresh connection works.
lemlist18

Get Team Information

Action

In MakeThis module retrieves information of your team, such as the list of users.

Returns details about your lemlist team, such as the list of users. Handy when a scenario must know who is on the account.

When to use it
you onboard a new rep and want your internal directory or CRM to reflect the lemlist seats.
Watch out
for users tied to campaigns, Get Senders is more precise.
lemlist19

Upload an audio file to a voice message step

Action

In MakeThis module enables users to upload an audio file to a linkedIn voice message step for each lead.

Attaches an audio file to a LinkedIn voice message step, lead by lead. It lets you prepare personal voice notes elsewhere and have lemlist deliver them in the sequence.

When to use it
your campaign includes LinkedIn voice notes recorded or generated per prospect.
Watch out
the Free plan caps files at 5 MB; keep recordings short.
lemlist20

Verify Email Address

Action

In MakeVerify your lead' email address to avoid bounces.

Checks a lead's address before you write to it, so fewer messages bounce. Cheap insurance for every inbound source.

When to use it
right between a new contact arriving and Add Lead in Campaign.
Watch out
read what it returns in Run once, then decide which results you let through before adding the lead.
lemlist21

Get a Lead by Email or ID

Search

In MakeThis module retrieves a lead by their email address or id.

Looks up a lead with either their email or their lemlist ID, whichever your scenario holds. As a search, it can return zero, one or several bundles.

When to use it
before updating a CRM record, to pull the lead's current lemlist details.
Watch out
plan for the case where nothing is found, otherwise the next modules simply do not run.
lemlist22

Get Senders

Search

In MakeThis module retrieves a list of all senders in the team along with their associated campaigns. This information is useful for tracking campaign participation and channel utilization by different team members.

Lists every sender of your team together with the campaigns each one runs, which shows who is working on what.

When to use it
a sales lead wants an on-demand view of rep workload, or you route replies to the right owner.
Watch out
one bundle comes out per sender, and each feeds the next module as a separate operation.
lemlist23

List All Campaigns

Search

In MakeList all campaigns.

Returns all your lemlist campaigns, one bundle per campaign. Unlike List Campaigns (deprecated), it carries no deprecated flag.

When to use it
you want a sheet or a Notion page that shows every campaign, or you loop over campaigns to fetch their stats.
Watch out
pair it with Get Campaign Stats carefully; each campaign then costs its own operations.
lemlist24

Pause a lead

Search

In MakeThis modules pauses a specific lead using its email or an id in all campaigns.

Stops a lead, found by email or ID, in all campaigns at once. The sequence halts without deleting anything, so you can resume later.

When to use it
a prospect books a meeting through your calendar tool and must not receive the next follow-up.
Watch out
it acts on every campaign, not a single one; to target one sequence, use Delete Lead from Campaign.
lemlist25

Retrieve Activities

Search

In MakeThis module retrieves the last activities based on the filtered parameters.

Fetches the latest lemlist activities that match the filters you set, on demand, instead of waiting for them to arrive.

When to use it
a scenario needs recent history at a given moment, for instance when a rep opens a deal and wants the lead's last touches.
Watch out
to react to each new activity as it happens, the Watch Activities trigger is the better tool.
lemlist26

Start a lead

Search

In MakeThis module starts a specific lead using its email or an id in all campaigns.

Restarts a lead, by email or ID, in all campaigns. It is the counterpart of Pause a lead and brings a prospect back into the flow.

When to use it
a meeting gets cancelled or a deal reopens, and outreach should pick up again.
Watch out
like its twin, it touches every campaign the lead is in; check that is really what you want.

FAQ

Questions people ask about lemlist and Make

01Is the lemlist Make integration free to use?
Yes. lemlist is a standard app in Make, available from the Free plan. That plan gives you 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, meaning operations, each month. Your lemlist subscription is separate and not covered here.
02What does it take to connect lemlist to Make?
A lemlist account and a Make account. The Make documentation lists no other prerequisite and gives no lemlist-specific steps, so you follow the usual flow: add any lemlist module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, then authorize Make on the lemlist page or paste the key lemlist provides, and click Save. Get Credits is a good first module to test the link: if it shows your remaining credits, the connection works.
03Do lemlist triggers in Make fire in real time?
Yes. Both lemlist triggers in Make are instant: Watch Activities and the deprecated Watch Emails. lemlist calls Make through a webhook as soon as the event happens, so there is no polling schedule to wait for. For a new scenario, look at Watch Activities first. If you only need recent history at a precise moment, the Retrieve Activities module fetches it on demand instead of listening all the time. Both paths use the same connection.
04What if a lemlist module is missing in Make?
The Make an API Call module usually fills the gap. It sends any authorized request to the lemlist API, reusing your existing connection. The endpoints you can reach are the ones listed in the lemlist API documentation, which the Make doc points to. Read that documentation first so you know what to send. If the endpoint does not exist on the lemlist side, no module can create it, and another app may be the better route.
05Make or n8n: which one fits lemlist better?
It depends on the tool you already use. lemlist has 28 modules in Make, including 2 instant triggers and a Make an API Call module for the rest of its API, and the same app also has a node on n8n. Choose the platform your team knows and where your other automations live, then check that the actions you need exist there. The comparison and the n8n page, linked earlier on this page, help you weigh both.
