What does the Prefinery Make integration do?
The Prefinery Make integration lets Make watch your Prefinery account and start an automation when something happens to a user or a referral. In Make, that automation is called a scenario: a chain of modules, where each module is one brick, such as a trigger that starts things or an action in another app.
All 8 Prefinery modules are triggers. Make's documentation lists them without detail, so their type is deduced from their Watch names: scheduled, which you can confirm by the clock badge on the module in the editor. Make polls Prefinery on the scenario's schedule instead of being called the moment something changes. Prefinery is the starting point of the flow; what happens next is done by modules from other apps.
A typical first build: Watch Created User picks up each new user, and a module from your CRM or your email tool receives that person. A second idea for a growth team: Watch Created Referral feeds a shared sheet so the team can see which referrals come in. A third, for support: Watch Suspended User or Watch Deleted User sends an alert to the channel your team reads, so nobody keeps contacting someone who left.
What the integration does not do: it cannot create, edit or remove anything in Prefinery, and it has no Make an API Call module. The official Make documentation for Prefinery is also thin; it says so itself, so what each trigger returns is best checked with a test run. If you are weighing platforms, the n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria, and the Make pricing page explains what a plan includes. To learn the editor step by step, see the Make training.
How do you connect Prefinery to Make?
- 01
Add a Prefinery module
In your scenario, click the + and search for Prefinery, then pick any of its triggers. Under the connection field, click Create a connection. A connection is your Prefinery account linked to Make once, then reused by every Prefinery module.
- 02
Name it and authorize Make
Give the connection a name if you like, handy when you manage more than one Prefinery account. Then either approve Make on the Prefinery page that opens, or paste the key Prefinery gives you, depending on what the window asks for.
- 03
Save the connection
Click Save. The connection now appears in the module, and any other Prefinery trigger you add later can select it from the list without asking you to log in again.
Build your first scenario with Prefinery
GoalWhen a new user appears in Prefinery, Make passes that person to the next tool of your choice.
- 01
Create the scenario
From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + in the middle of the editor. That empty circle is where your first module, the trigger, goes.
- 02
Add Watch Created User
Search for Prefinery, choose Watch Created User and pick the connection you created, or click Create a connection if this is your first Prefinery module.
- 03
Add the next module
Click the + on the right of the Prefinery module and choose the app that should receive the user. Map its fields with the data that the trigger passes along.
- 04
Test with Run once
Click Run once. Make runs the scenario one time and shows the bundles each module received, a bundle being one item, here one user. Check them before going live.
- 05
Schedule and switch on
Open the clock on the first module. A new scenario checks every 15 minutes by default; keep it or change it within your plan, then switch the scenario on.
Which Prefinery triggers can start a scenario?
8 modules start a scenario when something happens in Prefinery. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Prefinery as soon as it happens.
Watch Applied User
triggerIn the docs onlyUse this trigger to react when a user shows up as applied in Prefinery, going by the module name, since Make's documentation gives no description. Each person it finds becomes one bundle for the rest of the scenario.
Watch Created Referral
triggerIn the docs onlyThis is the only trigger about referrals rather than users: it gives your scenario each referral that appears in Prefinery, going by its name. It suits anyone who tracks where sign-ups come from.
Watch Created User
triggerIn the docs onlyPick this one when every new person in Prefinery should reach another tool: the module name says it follows created users, and each one arrives as a bundle ready to map.
Watch Deleted User
triggerIn the docs onlyKeep your other tools clean with this trigger: going by its name, it hands your scenario the users removed from Prefinery, so you can remove or flag them elsewhere too.
Watch Imported User
triggerIn the docs onlyWhen people enter Prefinery through an import instead of signing up themselves, this trigger lets you treat them apart, judging by its name. That keeps bulk arrivals out of flows meant for organic sign-ups.
Watch Resubscribed User
triggerIn the docs onlySpot the users who come back: as its name suggests, this trigger catches people who resubscribe in Prefinery, so a comeback does not go unnoticed by your other tools.
Watch Suspended User
triggerIn the docs onlyGet a heads-up on accounts put on hold: this trigger, by its name, reports users suspended in Prefinery, which lets support or sales stop outreach to them at once.
Watch Updated User
triggerIn the docs onlyKeep a copy of your users in sync: judging by its name, this trigger returns users whose details changed in Prefinery, the broadest of the 8 triggers.
