What you can automate

What can the Proofly Make integration automate?

The Proofly Make integration links your Proofly account to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario: an automation made of modules, each module being one brick such as a trigger, an action or a search. Once connected, Make can read your campaigns, activities and notification data, and switch a campaign on or off for you.

Campaigns that follow your calendar of offers. When a promotion ends in another app, List Campaigns finds the matching Proofly campaign and Toggle a Campaign flips it, so nobody has to remember to do it by hand.

Notification data sent to the rest of your stack. Watch For Notification Data picks up new items from Proofly and hands them to the next module, for example a row in a spreadsheet your sales team already reads.

A readable log of what Proofly shows. List Activities and List Campaign Notifications pull records out of Proofly so you can archive them or review them with a client.

One honest limit: Make's own documentation for Proofly is thin, and it says so. Field names and behaviors are not described, which is why each note below tells you to run the module once and read what comes back. When a listed module falls short, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the Proofly API with the same connection. Proofly may also exist on n8n; the n8n vs Make comparison helps you pick, the Make pricing page covers plans, and Make training goes further than this page.

Connect

How do you connect Proofly to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a Proofly module

    In a new scenario, click the +, type Proofly and pick any of its modules. Make then asks for a connection, meaning your Proofly account linked to Make once and reused by every Proofly module. Click Create a connection.

  2. 02

    Name the connection

    Give it a name you will recognize later, such as the brand or the client it belongs to. This step is optional, yet it saves confusion the day you manage more than one Proofly account from the same Make organization.

  3. 03

    Authorize and save

    Either approve Make on the Proofly page that opens, or paste the key Proofly gives you, depending on what the window asks for. Then click Save. The module now shows your account, and every other Proofly module can reuse it.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Proofly

GoalWhen an offer ends in another app, Make finds the matching Proofly campaign and switches it.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. Pick the app where your offers live as the first module: that is the event that starts everything.

  2. 02

    Find the campaign

    Click the + on the right of that module, search Proofly and choose List Campaigns. Create the connection. Each campaign it returns travels as a bundle, one item passed to the next module.

  3. 03

    Switch the campaign

    Add Toggle a Campaign after it and map the campaign coming from List Campaigns. Add a filter between the two so only the campaign tied to the offer that ended goes through, otherwise every campaign in the list gets flipped.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once. Make runs the scenario a single time and shows the bundles each module received. Open them to check that only the right campaign changed state in Proofly.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default for a new scenario, then turn the scenario on. Each module run counts as an operation, the unit Make bills on your plan.

Triggers

What starts a Proofly scenario

1 module starts a scenario when something happens in Proofly. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Proofly as soon as it happens.

Proofly1Watch For Notification Data

Watch For Notification Data

triggerIn the docs only

Watch For Notification Data is the one Proofly module that can open a scenario: each new item of notification data it finds becomes a bundle for the next modules. Make does not describe that data, so a first Run once shows you what it holds.

How it fires
scheduled, Make checks the app on the scenario's schedule. That type is deduced from the module's name, so confirm the clock badge on the module; no instant version is listed.
When to use it
you want what Proofly records to land somewhere your team already works, such as a sheet or a CRM, without anyone exporting it.
Watch out
on the Free plan, checks cannot run closer than 15 minutes apart, so new data waits until the next check.
Modules

Every Proofly module, explained

Proofly gives you 7 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Proofly1

Get a User

ActionIn the docs only

Get a User brings back a single user record from your Proofly account, handy when a later module or a report needs to know which account the scenario is working with.

When to use it
right after setting up the connection, as a quick check that Make really talks to the right Proofly account.
Watch out
the documentation lists no fields for it, so read the bundle after a test before mapping anything.
Proofly2

List Activities

SearchIn the docs only

This search returns the activities stored in Proofly, one bundle per activity, so you get a record you can copy into a sheet, a database or a message to your team.

When to use it
you want a trace of what happened in Proofly after a campaign ends or before a client review.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or many bundles, and every module placed after it runs once per bundle, which adds operations.
Proofly3

List Campaign Notifications

SearchIn the docs only

Going by its name, this module lists the notifications attached to one campaign, so you can review a campaign's content without opening Proofly.

When to use it
before switching a campaign off, or to send a client the notifications currently tied to their campaign.
Watch out
if nothing comes back, the scenario simply continues with no bundle, so add a filter if an empty list should stop it.
Proofly4

List Campaigns

SearchIn the docs only

Your Proofly campaigns come out one by one as bundles, which is the easiest way to find the campaign you want to act on later in the scenario.

When to use it
as the step just before Toggle a Campaign or List Campaign Notifications, so those modules receive a real campaign instead of one typed by hand.
Watch out
it can return every campaign in the account; add a filter after it so that only the one you mean continues.
Proofly5

List Data

SearchIn the docs only

List Data pulls a set of records out of Proofly as bundles. Its name stays general and the documentation does not say which records it covers, so treat it as an exploration tool at first.

When to use it
List Activities and List Campaigns do not return what you need, and you want to see what else Proofly exposes.
Watch out
run it once in an empty scenario and inspect the output before building anything on top of it.
Proofly6

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

With Make an API Call, you reach any endpoint of the Proofly API from your scenario, using the same connection as the other modules, so you are not stuck when no listed module does the job.

When to use it
you need a Proofly action that none of the other seven modules covers.
Watch out
you will need Proofly's own API documentation to know which address to call, since Make's page does not describe it.
Proofly7

Toggle a Campaign

ActionIn the docs only

Going by its name, Toggle a Campaign flips the state of one Proofly campaign: a running one would pause, a paused one would restart, without you logging in to Proofly.

When to use it
an event elsewhere, an offer ending or stock running out, should decide whether a campaign stays visible.
Watch out
a toggle does not check the current state, so a campaign already paused would restart; test with Run once and filter carefully.

FAQ

Proofly and Make: common questions

01Is the Proofly Make integration free?
Yes, Proofly is a standard app in Make, so it works on the Free plan. That plan gives you 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between two 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) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the limit on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes of execution. Usage is counted in operations each month. This page does not cover what Proofly itself charges.
02What do you need to connect Proofly to Make?
A Proofly account and a Make account. Make's documentation lists no specific prerequisite for Proofly, so the generic connection flow applies: add any Proofly module, click Create a connection, name it if you like, then either authorize Make on the Proofly page or paste the key Proofly provides, and click Save. The connection is created once and reused by all 8 Proofly modules, so you will not repeat this step for each one.
03Does the Proofly trigger in Make react in real time?
No. Watch For Notification Data is a scheduled trigger: Make checks Proofly on the schedule set on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, and no instant, webhook trigger is listed for Proofly. On the Free plan 15 minutes is also the shortest gap allowed; paid plans can go down to 1 minute. If you need a faster reaction, start the scenario from another app that reacts instantly and use the Proofly modules as actions.
04What if a Proofly module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It calls any endpoint of the Proofly API with the connection you already set up, which covers what the other seven modules do not. Keep in mind that Make's documentation for Proofly is marked as limited because little public information exists about the app, so you will need Proofly's own API reference to know what to call. Test each call with Run once before switching the scenario on.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Proofly?
It depends on what you already use. On Make, Proofly comes with 8 ready modules, including a scheduled trigger and Make an API Call for anything else, and it runs on the Free plan. The same app often has an n8n node too, so check the n8n node list before choosing. The fair criteria are the tool your team already knows, where your other apps are connected, and which Proofly actions you need on day one.
