What you can automate

What does the Reclaim.ai Make integration do?

The Reclaim.ai Make integration lets Make, a no-code automation tool, write tasks into your Reclaim.ai account and read your tasks and calendar events. You build a scenario (the automation itself, a chain of modules), and each module is one brick: here, an action or a search on Reclaim.ai.

Turn incoming requests into tasks. A new row in a sheet or a new form answer from another app starts the scenario, and Create a Task writes the task with its title, due date and priority in one step. Nobody copies anything by hand.

Share the week's agenda. List Events reads your calendar between a start and an end date, so a scenario can pass those events to a chat tool or a spreadsheet for the rest of the team.

Audit your task list. List Tasks returns every task, one bundle (one item passed to the next module) per task, which is handy for a report. Get a Task fetches one task when you already hold its ID.

What the integration does not do: it has no trigger, so Reclaim.ai never starts a scenario by itself. Something else has to start it, a schedule or another app. For anything the listed modules miss, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the Reclaim.ai API. New to the tool? The Make training covers the basics, and n8n vs Make helps if you are still choosing a platform.

Connect

How do you connect Reclaim.ai to Make?

  1. 01

    Generate your API key

    In Reclaim.ai, open Developer settings from the sidebar and click Generate. A new API key appears on screen: copy it right away, it is the only credential Make asks for.

  2. 02

    Add a Reclaim.ai module

    In your Make scenario, add any Reclaim.ai module and click Create a connection. The connection is your Reclaim.ai account linked to Make once, then reused by every Reclaim.ai module. You can give it a name in Connection name.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Paste the API key you copied, or follow the on-screen instructions, and confirm. Make now lists what it can read in your account, and the module is ready to fill in.

First scenario

How do you build your first scenario with Reclaim.ai?

GoalWhen a new request arrives in another app, Make creates the matching task in Reclaim.ai.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. Reclaim.ai has no trigger, so the first module comes from the app where your requests land: a form, a sheet, an inbox.

  2. 02

    Set up the starting module

    Pick that app's module, connect its account, and choose the source it should watch. Every new request it finds becomes a bundle that flows to the next module.

  3. 03

    Add Create a Task

    Click the + on the right, search Reclaim.ai, pick Create a Task and select your connection. Map the request's subject to the task title, then set the due date and priority from the data of the first module.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Add a test request in the source app, then click Run once. Make runs the scenario one time and shows the bundle each module received. Check in Reclaim.ai that the task is there.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch it on

    Open the clock on the first module (every 15 minutes by default, 15 minutes at least on the Free plan) and switch the scenario on. Each run of each module counts as one operation on your plan.

Modules

What can each Reclaim.ai module do?

Reclaim.ai gives you 5 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Reclaim.ai1

Create a Task

Action

In MakeUse this operation to create a new task by providing its title, status, time requirements, due date, category, privacy settings, priority, and scheduling details in one request.

Turns a request from another app into a complete Reclaim.ai task in one go. Title, due date, priority, time needed and scheduling details are filled at once, so you never come back to finish the task by hand.

When to use it
a client request, a support ticket or a form answer should end up as a task without anyone retyping it.
Watch out
map the title and due date from real data of the earlier module, or every task will carry the same placeholder text.
Reclaim.ai2

Get a Task

Action

In MakeUse this operation to fetch all the details of a specific task by providing its unique task ID.

Hand it a task ID and it brings back everything Reclaim.ai knows about that single task, ready to map into the next module of your scenario.

When to use it
you stored the ID earlier, for example in a sheet next to the request that created it, and now need the task's current details.
Watch out
it needs the exact ID; if you only know the title, start with List Tasks instead.
Reclaim.ai3

Make an API Call

Action

In MakePerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.

Your escape hatch: it calls any endpoint of the Reclaim.ai API with the same connection, so you are not stuck when the four other modules fall short.

When to use it
you need a Reclaim.ai feature that no listed module covers, and the API documentation shows how to reach it.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so read the vendor's API documentation first and test the call with Run once.
Reclaim.ai4

List Events

Search

In MakeList events and filter by start and end date.

Pulls the events of your calendar between a start date and an end date, so you get a clean slice of the agenda instead of the whole calendar.

When to use it
a scenario must post upcoming meetings in a team channel or copy them to a spreadsheet for planning.
Watch out
as a search, it may return zero, one or many events; the following modules run once per event, and each run counts as an operation.
Reclaim.ai5

List Tasks

Search

In MakeUse this operation to retrieve a complete list of all your tasks.

Fetches your full list of Reclaim.ai tasks, each one sent as its own bundle to the rest of the scenario, which makes reports and bulk checks easy.

When to use it
you want an overview of open work in a sheet, or you need to find a task whose ID you do not have.
Watch out
a long task list means many bundles, and every module placed after it spends one operation per task.

FAQ

Reclaim.ai and Make: frequent questions

01Is the Reclaim.ai Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. Reclaim.ai is a standard app, so its modules are available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, runs no more often than every 15 minutes, stops a run after 5 minutes and caps files at 5 MB. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams, Enterprise) bring a 1 minute minimum interval and unlimited active scenarios. Your Reclaim.ai subscription is a separate matter: check the Reclaim.ai pricing page for what your account includes.
02What do you need to connect Reclaim.ai to Make?
You need an active Reclaim.ai account with a calendar already connected, plus an API key. Get the key in Reclaim.ai under Developer settings, click Generate, then copy it. In Make, add a Reclaim.ai module, click Create a connection, give it a name if you like and paste the key. The same connection then serves all five Reclaim.ai modules, so you only do this once per account. Remember the prerequisite: without a connected calendar in Reclaim.ai, the connection has nothing to work with.
03Does the Reclaim.ai Make integration work in real time?
No, because Reclaim.ai has no trigger module in Make: nothing in Reclaim.ai can start a scenario on its own. You start the scenario another way. Either set a schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default and 1 minute at the shortest on paid plans, or open the scenario with an instant trigger from another app, which calls Make through a webhook as soon as something happens there. The Reclaim.ai modules then run right after it.
04What if a Reclaim.ai module you need is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It reaches any endpoint of the Reclaim.ai API with the connection you already set up, so a feature missing from Create a Task, Get a Task, List Events or List Tasks can still be covered. You write the request yourself from the vendor's documentation. Note that the Make documentation for this app is AI-generated from the official Reclaim.ai docs and may contain mistakes, so verify important details with Reclaim.ai directly.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Reclaim.ai?
It depends on where your other automations already live. On Make, Reclaim.ai comes with five ready modules, a single API key connection and Make an API Call for the rest, all available from the Free plan. The same app often has an n8n node too, so check the n8n side before deciding. Keeping your calendar and task automations in the tool your team already uses makes them easier to maintain than splitting them across two platforms.
