sevDesk Make integrationAutomate sevDesk with Make.
What could your invoicing look like if sevDesk handled the follow-up on its own? The sevDesk Make integration gives you 44 modules: 3 triggers, 28 actions and 13 searches. This guide shows how to link your account and build a first scenario, no code involved.

What can the sevDesk Make integration automate?
The sevDesk Make integration links your sevDesk account to Make, a visual tool where you chain apps together without writing code. Each chain is a scenario: a trigger notices something in sevDesk, then modules create, update, search or send records such as contacts, orders, invoices and vouchers.
Orders that turn into invoices. Watch Orders spots each order created in sevDesk, Create an Invoice builds the matching bill with data mapped from that order, and Send an Invoice via Email puts it in the customer's inbox. The sales team stops copying lines from one document to the next.
A cleaner contact base. A form or another tool can feed Create a Contact, after Check Customer Number Availability confirms the number is free. Create a Contact Address and Create a Communication Way then complete the record with a postal address and a phone or email.
Receipts filed where they belong. Watch Vouchers picks up each new voucher at the next scheduled check, Upload a Voucher File attaches the scan, and Book a Voucher finishes the job. Bookkeepers get a folder they no longer have to chase.
The listed modules do not cover the whole sevDesk API. For anything missing, Make an API Call reaches any endpoint with the same connection. Many apps also exist as an n8n node; if you are weighing both tools, the n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria. To learn scenario building step by step, see the Make training, and check Make pricing before you scale.
How do you connect sevDesk to Make?
- 01
Copy your sevDesk API token
Log in to sevDesk, open Settings then User, and click the user name you want Make to act as. Copy the API Token shown on that page and keep it at hand for the next step.
- 02
Add the connection in Make
In your Make scenario, insert any sevDesk module and click Add next to the Connection field. A connection is your sevDesk account linked to Make once, then reused by every sevDesk module you add later.
- 03
Paste the token and save
Give the connection a clear label in Connection name, for example the company it belongs to. Paste the token into API Key and click Save. The module can now list your sevDesk records.
Your first scenario: bill every new sevDesk order
GoalWhen an order is created in sevDesk, Make creates the invoice and emails it to the customer.
- 01
Create the scenario
On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big +. Search for sevDesk and pick Watch Orders as the first module.
- 02
Link your account
Click Add next to the connection field and paste your API token, as described above. Once saved, the trigger is ready to read the orders of your sevDesk account.
- 03
Add the invoice
Click the + on the right of Watch Orders and choose Create an Invoice. Map the customer and the amounts from the order that the trigger passed along.
- 04
Send it by email
Add Send an Invoice via Email after it and map the invoice returned by the previous module. Each order now flows through three modules, and each one counts as an operation on your plan.
- 05
Test with Run once
Create a test order in sevDesk, then click Run once. Open each module's bubble to read the bundle it received, one order and one invoice, and fix any mapping that looks off.
- 06
Schedule and switch on
Click the clock on Watch Orders to set Scheduling. A new scenario checks every 15 minutes by default. Switch the scenario on and it keeps billing new orders without you.
What can start a sevDesk scenario?
3 modules start a scenario when something happens in sevDesk. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by sevDesk as soon as it happens.
Watch Contacts
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Triggers if a contact has been created.”
Watch Contacts picks up each contact created in sevDesk, customer or supplier, at the scenario's next check, so the rest of your stack learns about them without a manual export. Each new contact arrives as one bundle you can map into a CRM, a mailing list or a spreadsheet.
Watch Orders
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Triggers if an order has been created.”
Watch Orders hands every freshly created sevDesk order to the next module, which is the natural starting point for billing, delivery or stock follow-up. You pick what happens next; the trigger only tells Make that the order exists.
Watch Vouchers
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Triggers if a voucher has been created.”
Watch Vouchers collects each new voucher in sevDesk, the receipts and supplier bills your bookkeeping runs on, and passes it on as a bundle. That lets you route expense documents to approval, storage or a team channel without opening sevDesk.
What can Make do in sevDesk?
sevDesk gives you 41 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Book an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Books an invoice.”
Book an Invoice runs the booking step on an existing sevDesk invoice from inside your scenario, so the invoice moves forward in your books without anyone clicking through sevDesk.
Book a Voucher
ActionIn Make“Books a voucher.”
With Book a Voucher, a supplier bill or receipt already stored in sevDesk gets its booking done by Make, which closes the loop on expense documents that used to sit waiting for someone.
Cancel an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Cancels an invoice.”
Cancel an Invoice cancels an invoice in sevDesk, the clean way to reverse a bill that went out by mistake or for an order the customer dropped.
Check Customer Number Availability
ActionIn Make“Checks if a given customer number is available or already used.”
Before a new contact is created, this module tells you whether a given customer number is still free or already taken in sevDesk, which keeps your numbering free of duplicates.
Check if an Invoice is Partially Paid
ActionIn Make“Checks if an invoice is already partially paid.”
Here you learn whether an invoice has already received part of its payment, which is the detail that decides between a firm reminder and a gentle nudge.
Create a Communication Way
ActionIn Make“Creates a new contact communication way.”
A communication way is a way to reach a contact, such as an email address or a phone number. This module adds one to a contact, so a record created elsewhere arrives with the details your team actually uses to reach people.
Create a Contact
ActionIn Make“Creates a new contact.”
Create a Contact adds a new customer or supplier to sevDesk from data coming out of another app, which spares you retyping names from a form, a shop or a CRM.
Create a Contact Address
ActionIn Make“Creates a new contact address.”
The postal side of a contact lives in its own record in sevDesk. This module adds an address to an existing contact so invoices and deliveries go to the right place.
Create an Accounting Contact
ActionIn Make“Creates a new accounting contact.”
Create an Accounting Contact sets up the bookkeeping side of a sevDesk contact, the part your accountant relies on when entries are posted, which saves a separate trip into sevDesk after each new customer.
Create an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Creates a new invoice.”
This is the module that produces the bill itself: Create an Invoice creates a new sevDesk invoice from the customer and line data you map, ready to be sent, rendered or booked by the modules that follow.
Create an Order
ActionIn Make“Creates a new order.”
Orders from a shop or a booking tool can reach sevDesk automatically through Create an Order, which gives your sales records one home instead of two diverging lists.
Create an Order Position
ActionIn Make“Creates a new order position for an order.”
An order position is one line of an order: a product, a quantity, a price. This module adds such a line to an existing sevDesk order, one bundle at a time.
Create a Part
ActionIn Make“Creates a new part in your sevDesk inventory.”
Parts are the products and items of your sevDesk inventory. Create a Part adds a new one, so a product launched in your shop or your product sheet also exists where your invoices pick it up.
Create a Voucher
ActionIn Make“Creates a new voucher.”
Expense documents collected elsewhere become proper sevDesk vouchers through this module, which saves the bookkeeper from keying in each supplier bill by hand.
Delete a Communication Way
ActionIn Make“Deletes a communication way.”
Delete a Communication Way removes an outdated phone number or email from a contact, which keeps reminders and invoices from going to an address nobody reads anymore.
Delete an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Deletes an invoice.”
Delete an Invoice removes an invoice from sevDesk entirely, useful for clearing out test documents or drafts that should never have existed.
Delete an Order
ActionIn Make“Deletes an order.”
When an order should vanish from sevDesk, this module deletes it, which keeps your order list aligned with what your shop or CRM still considers live.
Get a PDF Document of an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Retrieves a PDF document of an invoice.”
You get the invoice as a PDF file inside the scenario, ready to be stored in a drive, attached to an email from another tool or sent to a customer portal.
Get Stock of a Part
ActionIn Make“Returns the current stock amount of the given part.”
Get Stock of a Part returns how many units of a given item sevDesk currently has, so a scenario can react to low stock or show availability in another tool.
Make an API Call
ActionIn Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized API call.”
Make an API Call is the escape hatch: it lets you reach any endpoint of the sevDesk API with the connection you already set up, for everything the listed modules do not cover.
Mark an Invoice as Sent
ActionIn Make“Marks an invoice as sent by a chosen send type.”
Mark an Invoice as Sent updates the invoice status in sevDesk and records how it went out, using the send type you choose, so your open items reflect reality even when the bill left through another channel.
Render a PDF Document of an Invoice
ActionIn Make“Renders a PDF document of an invoice.”
Rendering asks sevDesk to build the PDF of an invoice, the step that turns the data you created into the document the customer will see.
Send an Invoice via Email
ActionIn Make“Sends a specified invoice via email.”
With one module the invoice leaves sevDesk by email and reaches the customer, which removes the last manual step between a sale and getting paid.
Update a Contact
ActionIn Make“Updates an existing contact.”
Update a Contact rewrites an existing sevDesk contact with fresher data, so a company name or detail changed in your CRM does not linger in its old form on the next invoice.
Update an Order
ActionIn Make“Updates an existing order.”
Orders change after they are placed. This module brings those changes into the sevDesk order, keeping delivery, billing and your shop in line with each other.
Update a Part
ActionIn Make“Updates an existing part.”
Update a Part edits an existing item of your sevDesk inventory with the data you map, so your invoices keep using current product data.
Update a Voucher
ActionIn Make“Updates an existing voucher.”
Corrections to a supplier bill or receipt reach sevDesk through Update a Voucher, so the bookkeeping record matches the corrected document your supplier sent.
Upload a Voucher File
ActionIn Make“Uploads a voucher file.”
This module sends the scan or PDF of a receipt into sevDesk, so every voucher comes with its proof attached when the accountant reviews it.
Get a Contact
SearchIn Make“Retrieves a single contact.”
Get a Contact fetches one sevDesk contact when you already know which one, giving the next modules its full details to map into an email, an invoice or a CRM.
Get an Invoice
SearchIn Make“Retrieves a single invoice.”
One invoice, fully loaded: this search reads a single sevDesk invoice so the rest of the scenario can use its amounts, customer and status.
Get an Order
SearchIn Make“Retrieves a single order.”
Get an Order pulls a single sevDesk order with its data, so a later module can bill it, update it or forward it to your warehouse.
Get a Part
SearchIn Make“Retrieves a single part.”
This search returns a single inventory item from sevDesk, handy when a scenario needs the product's data before creating an order line or updating a price.
Get a Voucher
SearchIn Make“Retrieves a single voucher.”
Get a Voucher reads one voucher from sevDesk, giving you its data to check, correct or book in the next modules.
Search Communication Ways
SearchIn Make“Searches for communication ways or lists them all.”
Search Communication Ways finds the phone numbers and emails stored on your contacts, or lists them all, which is the first step before cleaning or syncing them.
Search Contacts
SearchIn Make“Searches for contacts or lists them all.”
Search Contacts looks up contacts that match your criteria, or lists the whole address book, and is the usual guard against duplicates before any contact is created.
Search Invoices
SearchIn Make“Searches for invoices or lists them all.”
With Search Invoices a scenario can gather the invoices that match what you ask for, or all of them, which is the base for reminders, reports or exports to a spreadsheet.
Search Order Positions
SearchIn Make“Searches for order positions or lists them all.”
This search returns the lines of your orders, product by product, so you can copy them into an invoice, a packing list or a stock sheet.
Search Orders
SearchIn Make“Searches for orders or lists them all.”
Search Orders finds sevDesk orders that meet your criteria or lists them all, which helps when you need to act on a group of orders rather than on a single new one.
Search Parts
SearchIn Make“Searches for parts or lists them all.”
Your sevDesk inventory becomes readable to other apps through Search Parts, which finds items by your criteria or returns the full list.
Search Voucher Positions
SearchIn Make“Searches for voucher positions or lists them all.”
Search Voucher Positions reads the individual lines of your vouchers, which is where the detail of an expense sits when a supplier bill covers several items.
Search Vouchers
SearchIn Make“Searches for vouchers or lists them all.”
You get the sevDesk vouchers matching your search, or all of them, and each one travels on as its own bundle (one item passed to the next module).
