What does the SiteSeam Make integration let you automate?
The SiteSeam Make integration links your SiteSeam account to Make, a visual tool where you build a scenario (the automation itself, a chain of modules) without writing code. A module is one brick of that chain. SiteSeam brings 5 of them, all listed as actions, so the scenario starts on a schedule or on another app.
The module names tell you where to look: bookings, contact forms, quote requests and newsletter sign-ups on your site. A sales team could run Contact Form Submission on a schedule and send what comes back to its CRM. A service business could do the same with Booking Scheduled to keep a shared calendar in step. A shop that sends quotes could route Instant Quote Submission to whoever prices the job.
Treat those as ideas to check, not promises. The Make documentation for SiteSeam is marked as limited: it gives no field list and no description for any module, so open each one in the editor and test it with Run once before you rely on it. When a listed module does not cover your case, Make an API Call reaches any endpoint of the SiteSeam API with the same connection.
If you are still weighing tools, the n8n vs Make comparison sets out the differences, and the Make pricing page explains how operations are counted. Stuck on a run that fails? See Make troubleshooting.
How do you connect SiteSeam to Make?
- 01
Add a SiteSeam module
In a new scenario, click the + and search for SiteSeam. Pick any of its modules, then click Create a connection. A connection is your SiteSeam account linked to Make once and reused by every SiteSeam module.
- 02
Name it and authorize
Give the connection a name if you like, which helps when you run several sites. Then either approve Make on the SiteSeam page that opens, or paste the key SiteSeam gives you, depending on what the window asks for.
- 03
Save the connection
Click Save. Make returns to the module, and once the connection works it can list what it is able to read in your SiteSeam account, so you pick values instead of typing them.
Your first scenario with SiteSeam
GoalWhen the scenario runs on its schedule, Make runs Contact Form Submission in SiteSeam, then calls the SiteSeam API for the step the listed modules do not cover.
- 01
Create the scenario
Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big + to place the first module. Search for SiteSeam and choose Contact Form Submission.
- 02
Link your account
Click Create a connection and follow the three steps above. The connection is saved once and every later SiteSeam module reuses it.
- 03
Fill in the module
Complete the fields Make shows for Contact Form Submission. The documentation does not list them, so read each label in the editor and pick from the values Make offers.
- 04
Add the API call
Click the + on the right of the first module and add Make an API Call from SiteSeam. Map data from the previous module into it to reach the endpoint you need.
- 05
Test with Run once
Click Run once. Make executes the scenario one time and shows the bundles each module received, meaning each item passed along. Check they hold what you expected.
- 06
Schedule and switch on
Click the clock on the first module. A new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default; keep that or change it, then switch the scenario on so it runs without you.
What the SiteSeam modules do
SiteSeam gives you 5 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.
Booking Scheduled
ActionIn the docs onlyBooking Scheduled is the module to try first if appointments are what matter on your site, since its name points to bookings. Make lists it as an action, and the documentation gives neither a description nor its fields.
Contact Form Submission
ActionIn the docs onlyThis module gives your scenario a way into the contact form side of SiteSeam, judging by its name. Make types it as an action; the documentation stays silent on what it returns or which fields it expects, so the editor is your guide.
Instant Quote Submission
ActionIn the docs onlyQuote requests are the likely subject of Instant Quote Submission, going by its name alone. Despite the word instant, Make lists it as an action and not as an instant trigger, so it will not start a scenario by itself.
Make an API Call
ActionIn the docs onlyMake an API Call lets you reach any endpoint of the SiteSeam API from your scenario, using the connection you already created. It is the safety net for everything the four named modules leave out.
Subscribe Form Submission
ActionIn the docs onlyNewsletter sign-ups are what Subscribe Form Submission seems built around, based on its name. Make classes it as an action, and nothing in the documentation describes its output yet, so a test run is the quickest way to learn it.
