What can the Plutio Make integration automate?
The Plutio Make integration links your Plutio account to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario: a chain of modules that runs on a schedule or when an app calls Make. Each module is one brick, like a trigger that watches Plutio or an action that creates a task, so client work moves between your tools without copy and paste.
A proposal turns into a project. Watch Proposals picks up proposals from Plutio; from there Create a Project opens the job and Create a Task adds the first to-do, so nobody retypes the client details.
Invoices reach your books. Watch Invoices hands each invoice it finds to the next module, for example a row in an accounting sheet, while Search Invoices pulls invoices on demand in the middle of a longer scenario.
Contacts stay in one place. When a lead fills a form in another app, Search People checks whether that person is already in Plutio, then Create a Person or Update a Person keeps a single record.
Make's documentation for Plutio is limited: it lists the modules but says little about their fields, so test each one with Run once, the editor button that runs the scenario a single time. For what the modules skip, Make an API Call reaches the Plutio API with the same connection. The same app may also have an n8n node; the n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria, Make pricing explains how operations are counted, and Make training covers the editor from the start.
How do you connect Plutio to Make?
- 01
Add a Plutio module
Open your scenario, click the + and search for Plutio. Pick any module, Watch Tasks for example, then click Create a connection. A connection is your Plutio account linked to Make once and reused by every Plutio module.
- 02
Name it and authorize Make
Give the connection a name you will recognize later, such as the workspace it belongs to; this part is optional. Then follow the window: authorize Make on the Plutio page, or paste the key Plutio gives you if that is what it asks for.
- 03
Save and reuse it
Click Save. Back in the module, Make can now read your Plutio account and lists what it finds in the fields. Every other Plutio module you add later offers this same connection in its dropdown.
Build your first Plutio scenario
GoalWhen Make picks up a proposal in Plutio, it creates a project and adds a first task to it.
- 01
Create the scenario
From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big + to place the first module. Search for Plutio and choose Watch Proposals, the trigger that starts the flow.
- 02
Connect the trigger
Click Create a connection to link your Plutio account, or pick the one you already made. Fill the fields the module shows; once connected, Make lists what it can read in your account.
- 03
Add the project and the task
Click the + on the right of Watch Proposals and add Create a Project, mapping data from the proposal. Add Create a Task next and map values from the two earlier modules.
- 04
Test with Run once
Click Run once. Make runs the scenario a single time and shows the bundles, the items passed from one module to the next, so you can check the project and task in Plutio.
- 05
Schedule and switch on
Open the clock on Watch Proposals: a new scenario checks every 15 minutes by default, which is also the shortest gap on the Free plan. Then switch the scenario on.
What can start a Plutio scenario?
10 modules start a scenario when something happens in Plutio. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Plutio as soon as it happens.
Watch Forms
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for forms.”
Watch Forms starts your scenario from the forms in your Plutio account, so each form it picks up becomes a bundle, one item passed to the next module, that you can route anywhere.
Watch Invoices
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for invoices.”
Watch Invoices keeps an eye on your Plutio invoices and starts the scenario with each invoice it finds, ready to be copied, announced or filed in another tool.
Watch Notifications
Instant triggerIn Make“Watches for events selected in Plutio webhooks settings.”
Watch Notifications is the only instant trigger of the app: it receives the events you selected in Plutio's webhook settings and starts the scenario with each one.
Watch People
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for people.”
Watch People follows the contacts in your Plutio account and hands each person it picks up to the next module, a natural start for syncing your client list elsewhere.
Watch Projects
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for projects.”
Watch Projects starts your scenario from Plutio projects, turning each project it finds into a bundle other apps can use.
Watch Proposals
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for proposals.”
Watch Proposals picks up proposals from your Plutio account and launches the scenario for each one; it is the first brick of the scenario shown on this page.
Watch Task Boards
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for task boards.”
Watch Task Boards reports the boards of your Plutio workspace to Make, so a board can set other tools in motion.
Watch Task Groups
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for task groups.”
Watch Task Groups catches the task groups in Plutio and passes each one to the rest of the scenario.
Watch Tasks
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for tasks.”
Watch Tasks turns the tasks in Plutio into the starting point of a scenario, each task it finds becoming one bundle for the next module.
Watch Templates
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Watches for templates.”
Watch Templates tracks the templates saved in your Plutio account and starts the scenario with each one it finds.
What each Plutio module does
Plutio gives you 44 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Copy a Task
ActionIn Make“Copies a specified task.”
Copy a Task duplicates a task you already set up in Plutio, so a to-do you defined once can be reused without typing it again.
Copy a Task Board
ActionIn Make“Copies a specified task board.”
With Copy a Task Board you get a full duplicate of an existing board, a quick way to reuse a layout of tasks that already works for you.

Create a Block adds a new block to your Plutio account straight from the scenario, filled with data mapped from earlier modules.
Create an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Creates a new invoice.”
Create an Invoice builds a Plutio invoice from data your scenario already holds, so billing starts without retyping amounts or client details.

ActionIn Make“Creates a new person.”
Create a Person adds someone to your Plutio contacts using details that came from another app, so nobody types the same contact twice.
Create a Project
ActionIn Make“Creates a new project.”

ActionIn Make“Creates a new proposal.”

ActionIn Make“Creates a new task.”
