What you can automate

What can the Postiz Make integration do for you?

It lets Make, a no-code automation tool, create, edit, list and remove posts in Postiz, and upload files to your account. You build a scenario (the automation itself, a chain of bricks called modules), and Make runs it for you, either on a schedule or when another app starts it.

Turn fresh content into drafts. A content marketer adds a line to a spreadsheet or publishes an article, another app's trigger starts the scenario, and Create posts (beta) writes the matching posts in Postiz. Nobody copies text between tabs anymore.

Keep the calendar clean. List posts (beta) pulls the posts Postiz holds, then Update posts (beta) fixes them or Delete a post (beta) removes the ones a campaign no longer needs. Handy for an agency juggling several client accounts.

Send visuals along. Upload a file (beta) pushes a file from another app into your Postiz account, so the designer's export does not sit in a download folder.

Know the limits before you start. Postiz has no trigger in Make, so a scenario always starts from a schedule or from another app. Five of the 6 modules carry the beta tag, and the Make documentation for Postiz says it was AI-generated and may contain mistakes, so check anything important with Postiz. When a listed module falls short, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the Postiz API with the same connection.

Connect

How do you connect Postiz to Make?

  1. 01

    Copy your Postiz API key

    You need an active Postiz account. Log in, open the Settings page, find the section called API key and copy the key shown there. Keep that tab open, you will paste the key into Make in a moment.

  2. 02

    Add a Postiz module in Make

    In your scenario, add any Postiz module, for example Create posts (beta), and click Create a connection. A connection is your Postiz account linked to Make once and reused by every Postiz module afterwards.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Give it a label in Connection name if you like (optional, but useful with several workspaces), paste the API key you copied, and confirm. The connection is saved and the module is ready to fill.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Postiz and Make

GoalWhen something new shows up in another app, Make creates the matching post in Postiz.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Postiz has no trigger, so this first brick comes from the app where your content starts.

  2. 02

    Pick the starting app

    Search that app by name, choose its module and link its account with Create a connection. Each item it returns is a bundle: one row, one article, one message.

  3. 03

    Add Create posts (beta)

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search Postiz and pick Create posts (beta). Choose your Postiz connection, then fill the fields by mapping data from the first module.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once. Make runs the scenario one time and shows the bundles each module received. Open Postiz and check that the post looks the way you expected.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch it on

    Open the clock on the first module to set the schedule (every 15 minutes by default, 15 minutes minimum on the Free plan), then switch the scenario on. It now runs without you.

Modules

What each Postiz module does in Make

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

Postiz1

Create posts (beta)

Action

In MakeCreates one or more posts.

This module fills your Postiz calendar: it creates one or more posts from data coming out of earlier modules, so a new article or a new row becomes a post without retyping it.

When to use it
as the last step of a scenario that starts in a spreadsheet, a CMS or a form.
Watch out
it runs once per incoming bundle, so a search that returns several items above it creates several posts and uses several operations (one module run each, which is what Make bills on your plan).
Postiz2

Delete a post (beta)

Action

In MakeDeletes an existing post.

Removes a post that already exists in Postiz, which keeps your queue free of content a campaign no longer needs, like a promo for an event that got cancelled.

When to use it
when a record is marked as withdrawn in your source app and the matching post must go too.
Watch out
a deletion cannot be undone from Make, so test on a throwaway post with Run once before the scenario goes live.
Postiz3

Make an API Call

Action

In MakePerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.

Lets your scenario send any request the Postiz API accepts, reusing the connection you already created, so you are not stuck when the five other modules do not cover an operation.

When to use it
once you have checked the listed modules and none does what you need.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep the Postiz API documentation open while you set it up.
Postiz4

Update posts (beta)

Action

In MakeUpdates one or more posts.

Edits one or more existing posts, so a correction made at the source (a new link, a reworded sentence) reaches Postiz before anything goes out.

When to use it
when your source of truth changes after the post was created and you prefer fixing it over deleting and recreating it.
Watch out
place List posts before it when the scenario first has to find which posts to change.
Postiz5

Upload a file (beta)

Action

In MakeUploads a new file.

Sends a new file into your Postiz account, so a visual exported by your designer or saved in cloud storage is available in Postiz without a manual download and upload.

When to use it
when the image or video for a post lives in another app of the scenario.
Watch out
on the Make Free plan, files are limited to 5 MB, so check the size of heavy videos before the run.
Postiz6

List posts (beta)

Search

In MakeReturns a list of posts.

Returns the posts stored in Postiz as separate bundles, which gives the rest of the scenario something to review, report on or clean up.

When to use it
ahead of Update posts or Delete a post, or to copy your post list into a spreadsheet for a quick review.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or many bundles, and every module after it runs once per bundle, which adds operations to your plan.

FAQ

Postiz and Make: common questions

01Is the Postiz Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. Postiz is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, 5 minutes per execution, 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 allow 40 minutes per execution. Make counts usage in operations, one per module run. Your Postiz subscription is a separate matter, handled on Postiz's own pricing page.
02What do you need to connect Postiz to Make?
An active Postiz account and its API key. Log into Postiz, open the Settings page, find the section named API key and copy it. In Make, add a Postiz module, click Create a connection, optionally type a Connection name, paste the key and confirm. That single connection then serves all 6 Postiz modules in your scenarios, so you only do this once for each Postiz account you want to automate.
03Can a Postiz scenario start in real time?
Not from Postiz, because the app has no trigger module in Make. You have two ways to start. Put a trigger from another app first, such as a new row in a sheet, and let Postiz modules act on what it sends. Or start with a Postiz module itself, like List posts (beta), and let Make run the scenario on its schedule: every 15 minutes by default, with 15 minutes as the minimum on the Free plan and 1 minute on paid plans.
04What if the Postiz module you need is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It calls any endpoint of the Postiz API with the connection you already have, so an operation missing from the five other modules is still within reach. Keep two things in mind. The five post and file modules are tagged beta, and the Make documentation for Postiz says it was AI-generated and may contain mistakes. When a result surprises you, check the Postiz documentation or ask Postiz directly before building more on top of it.
05Should you pick Make or n8n for Postiz?
It depends on what you already run. In Make, Postiz gives you 6 modules covering posts and files, plus a generic API call, with no trigger. n8n often offers a node for the same apps, so compare what each tool provides for Postiz today rather than trusting a general ranking. If your team already builds in Make and these modules match your need, stay there. If the rest of your stack lives in n8n, check its Postiz support first.
