What you can automate

What can the Openmic Make integration do for you?

The Openmic Make integration lets a Make scenario (the automation you build, a chain of modules) place calls through Openmic and read back its bots and calls. Each module is one brick of that chain. You link your Openmic account once, and every module reuses that connection.

Call back a lead without waiting. Put a form or CRM trigger from another app first, then add Create a Phone Call so Openmic dials as soon as the new contact reaches Make. That suits a real estate team or any sales desk that loses leads when nobody picks up the phone.

Keep a log of every call. List Calls returns your calls as bundles (one item passed to the next module), which you can write into a spreadsheet or a database for reporting. Get a Call fetches a single one when you already know which call you need.

Check which bots you have. List Bots and Get a Bot read the bots set up in your account, handy before you pick one inside a scenario.

Know the limit before you start: Make itself says its Openmic documentation is limited, because little public information exists about the app. When a listed module falls short, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the Openmic API with the same connection. The Make troubleshooting guide helps when a run fails, and Make training covers the editor from zero. Weighing tools? Read n8n vs Make.

Connect

How do you connect Openmic to Make?

  1. 01

    Add an Openmic module

    In your scenario, click the +, search for Openmic and pick any of its modules. In the module panel, click Create a connection. This connection is your Openmic account linked to Make, set up once for all six modules.

  2. 02

    Name and authorize

    Give the connection a name if you plan to link several accounts, for example one per client. Then either approve Make on the Openmic page that opens, or paste the key Openmic gives you, depending on what the window asks for.

  3. 03

    Save and check

    Click Save. The module now shows your connection in its dropdown. A quick way to confirm it works: run List Bots on its own and look for your bots in the output.

First scenario

Your first scenario: call a new lead with Openmic

GoalWhen a new lead reaches Make from another app, Make asks Openmic to place a phone call.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. The first module is the trigger of the app where your leads arrive, a form tool or your CRM.

  2. 02

    Set up the lead source

    Connect that app and choose the form or list to watch. Openmic has no trigger of its own, so this module decides when the scenario starts.

  3. 03

    Add Create a Phone Call

    Click the + on the right, search for Openmic and pick Create a Phone Call. Select your connection, then map the lead data from the first module into the fields Make displays.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once and submit a test lead. Open the bubble above each module to read the bundles it received and confirm Openmic accepted the call.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    On the first module, set the schedule (every 15 minutes by default), then switch the scenario on. Each run uses operations, the unit Make counts on your plan.

Modules

What the Openmic modules do

Openmic gives you 6 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Openmic1

Create a Phone Call

ActionIn the docs only

Your scenario asks Openmic to start a call, using the contact data mapped from earlier modules. No one has to dial by hand.

When to use it
right after the event that deserves a call, such as a quote request or a missed appointment coming from another app.
Watch out
even a Run once test can place a live call, so put your own number in the test data first.
Openmic2

Get a Bot

ActionIn the docs only

You get the details of one Openmic bot as a single bundle, ready to map into the next module or to check before a call goes out.

When to use it
when you already know which bot you care about, for instance one mapped from List Bots, and want only that one.
Watch out
it returns one bot, never a list; to scan all of them, reach for List Bots instead.
Openmic3

Get a Call

ActionIn the docs only

Pull the record of one specific call back into Make, so the rest of the scenario can store it, forward it or decide what to do next.

When to use it
after Create a Phone Call, or when another tool hands you a call reference and you want that call alone.
Watch out
it only sees calls from the Openmic account behind your connection. Linked several? Pick the right one.
Openmic4

List Bots

SearchIn the docs only

Here you receive every bot in your Openmic account, one bundle per bot, which makes a clean starting point for audits or lookups.

When to use it
to copy your bot inventory into a sheet, or to find the right bot before handing it to Get a Bot.
Watch out
like any search, it can return zero, one or many bundles, and each following module then runs once per bot.
Openmic5

List Calls

SearchIn the docs only

Your calls come out of Openmic as separate bundles, which turns a call history into rows you can write, filter or count elsewhere.

When to use it
to feed a reporting sheet or a CRM with the calls your team or your bots handled.
Watch out
a long list means many bundles, and every module placed after it spends one operation per call.
Openmic6

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

This module opens the whole Openmic API to your scenario, reusing the connection you already created, so you are not stuck with the five other modules.

When to use it
when you need an endpoint none of the listed modules covers.
Watch out
Make's own Openmic docs are limited, so you will rely on Openmic's API reference to build the request correctly.

FAQ

Openmic and Make: frequent questions

01Is the Openmic Make integration free?
Yes, Openmic 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 and Enterprise) bring the interval down to 1 minute, lift the cap on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes of execution. Usage is counted in credits, or operations, per month. Your Openmic subscription is a separate matter that Make does not cover.
02What do you need to connect Openmic to Make?
An Openmic account and a Make account are enough to start, since Make's documentation lists no other prerequisite. You add any Openmic module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, then either authorize Make on the Openmic page or paste the key Openmic provides, and click Save. Make does not publish steps specific to Openmic, so the window can look slightly different from this description. Once saved, the same connection serves all six modules, including Make an API Call.
03Does Openmic trigger a Make scenario in real time?
No, Openmic has no trigger module in Make, so it cannot start a scenario on its own. You have two ways around that. Start the scenario with a trigger from another app, such as a form or a CRM, and let Openmic act next. Or run it on a schedule set on the first module: new scenarios run every 15 minutes by default, with 15 minutes as the minimum on the Free plan and 1 minute on paid plans.
04What if an Openmic module you need is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It sends a request to any endpoint of the Openmic API with the connection you already have, so you can cover what the six listed modules leave out. Keep in mind that Make says its Openmic documentation is limited, because not enough public information about the app exists. You will need Openmic's own API reference to write the request. If a run fails, open the bundles after Run once to see what the API answered.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Openmic?
It depends on where the rest of your automations already live. In Make, Openmic comes with six ready modules, four actions and two searches, plus Make an API Call for anything else, and runs from the Free plan. Many apps also have an n8n node, but this page does not confirm one for Openmic, so check before you commit. The n8n vs Make comparison on this site lays out the criteria side by side.
