What can the Testlify Make integration do for your hiring?
The Testlify Make integration links your Testlify account to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario: an automation made of modules, each one a single brick such as a trigger, an action or a search. With it, candidate assessments go out, get tracked and get reported without copy and paste between tools.
Candidates tested the moment they qualify. When a candidate reaches the right stage in another tool you already use, Send an Assessment delivers the Testlify test to them, so nobody has to remember to invite each applicant by hand.
Results that reach the right person. Watch a Completed Assessment is an instant trigger: Testlify calls Make through a webhook as soon as a candidate finishes. Your scenario can then pass the news to the hiring manager in the app where they already work.
A status check before a follow-up. Get Test Status looks up where a given test stands using the invite ID, and List Assessments returns the assessments created in your account, which helps when a scenario must pick the right test.
Limits worth knowing: the official Testlify page in the Make documentation warns that its content is AI-generated from vendor docs and may contain mistakes, so test each module with a real candidate first. For anything the listed modules skip, Make an API call reaches the rest of the Testlify API. The same app often exists as an n8n node too; the n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria, and the Make training helps if this is your first scenario.
How do you connect Testlify to Make?
- 01
Generate your Testlify API key
In Testlify, click the profile icon in the top navigation, open Settings, then the Developers tab. Under API Key, click Generate Key and copy the key shown on screen. You need an active Testlify account for this.
- 02
Add a Testlify module in Make
In your scenario, add any Testlify module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Testlify account linked to Make once, then reused by every Testlify module. The Connection name field is optional but helps if you manage several accounts.
- 03
Paste the credentials and save
Paste the key you copied from Testlify, or follow the instructions Make shows on screen, then confirm. Once saved, the connection appears in the module and you can start filling in its fields.
Your first scenario with Testlify and Make
GoalWhen a candidate completes a Testlify assessment, Make looks up the test status so your hiring team knows what to do next.
- 01
Create the scenario
Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the large + to place the first module. This first module decides when everything else runs.
- 02
Add the Testlify trigger
Search for Testlify, choose Watch a Completed Assessment, click Create a webhook, then Create a connection and link the account you prepared earlier.
- 03
Add Get Test Status
Click the + to the right of the trigger, pick Get Test Status and map the invite ID from the trigger's bundle, if Testlify sends one there (check it during Run once). You can then chain the app your team reads, a chat or a spreadsheet.
- 04
Test with Run once
Click Run once, then have a test candidate finish an assessment. Each bundle, one item passed from module to module, shows up so you can check what Make received.
- 05
Switch it on
Because the trigger is instant, Testlify calls Make whenever an assessment ends. Switch the scenario on and each completed test gets its status checked without further clicks.
What starts a Testlify scenario
1 module starts a scenario when something happens in Testlify. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Testlify as soon as it happens.
Watch a Completed Assessment
Instant triggerIn Make“Triggers when the candidate completes the assessment.”
You hear about a finished assessment the moment the candidate submits it, so a strong profile never waits in a queue until someone logs in to Testlify.
What the Testlify modules can do
Testlify gives you 4 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.
Make an API call
ActionIn Make“Perform an arbitrary authorized API call”
Covers whatever the four other Testlify modules leave out: it calls any endpoint of the Testlify API while reusing the connection you already created, so no second login.
Send an Assessment
ActionIn Make“Sends a Testlify assessment to a candidate.”
Puts a Testlify assessment in front of a candidate without you opening Testlify, which turns the invitation into a step your scenario handles for you.
Get Test Status
SearchIn Make“Retrieves the status of the test sent to a candidate using the invite ID.”
Tells you where a specific candidate stands on a test they were sent, using the invite ID, so your scenario can decide whether a reminder or a review comes next.
List Assessments
SearchIn Make“List of all the assessments created in your Testlify account”
Returns the assessments created in your Testlify account, one bundle per assessment, which gives later modules a clean list to pick from or to copy elsewhere.
