What you can automate

What can the Tilda Make integration do for you?

The Tilda Make integration links your Tilda account to Make, a visual tool where you build a scenario (the automation itself, a chain of steps). Each step is a module. On the Tilda side, one module reacts to form submissions and five others read your projects and pages, so the data you collect on your site reaches the rest of your stack.

Leads that land where your team works. Watch New Forms fires the moment a visitor submits a web form. From there, the next module can push the entry into a CRM, a spreadsheet or a chat channel. For a studio selling through a landing page, that means no more copying submissions by hand.

A map of your sites. List Projects returns every project in your account, and List Pages returns the pages of one project. Chained together, they give an agency an inventory of what it has built for each client.

Context on demand. Get a Project and Get a Page read one specific item. They help when a scenario needs details about a page before it acts.

What the integration does not do: the listed modules only read. There is no module to publish or edit a page, so anything beyond reading goes through Make an API Call. Also note the access condition: Tilda asks for a Business Plan to hand out API keys.

Wondering which tool fits your team? Our n8n vs Make comparison sets both side by side, and the Make review covers Make on its own. If you would rather have it built for you, the Make agency team can take it on.

Connect

How do you connect Tilda to Make?

  1. 01

    Copy your two keys in Tilda

    In Tilda, open Site Settings, go to the Export tab and click API Integration. Copy the key labeled Public Key, then the one labeled Secret Key. Keep both at hand for the next step.

  2. 02

    Add a Tilda module in Make

    Log in to Make, add a Tilda module to your scenario and click Create a connection. A connection is your Tilda account linked to Make once, then reused by every Tilda module. The Connection name field is optional.

  3. 03

    Paste the keys and save

    Enter the Public Key and Secret Key you copied, or follow the instructions Make shows on screen. Once saved, the connection appears in the dropdown of every Tilda module you add afterwards.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Tilda and Make

GoalWhen a visitor submits a form on your Tilda site, Make receives the entry and reads the data of the page you picked.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario, then click the big + to place your first module. Search for Tilda by name.

  2. 02

    Set up Watch New Forms

    Pick Watch New Forms. Click Create a webhook, then Create a connection and paste your two Tilda keys. This module is the trigger: it starts the scenario.

  3. 03

    Add Get a Page

    Click the + on the right of the trigger and choose Get a Page. It reuses the same connection. Fill in its fields; Make offers what it can read in your account.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once, then submit a test entry on your form. Open each module to see the bundle it received, a bundle being one item passed from one module to the next.

  5. 05

    Switch it on

    Happy with the result? Turn the scenario on. From then on, each new submission runs it, and each module run counts as one operation on your Make plan.

Triggers

What starts a Tilda scenario

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

Tilda1Watch New Forms

Watch New Forms

Instant trigger

In MakeTriggers when a new web form is submitted.

Every time a visitor sends one of your Tilda web forms, this trigger hands the submission to Make and your scenario starts. Among the Tilda modules, it alone can open a scenario. For lead capture, start here.

How it fires
instant, Tilda calls Make through a webhook as soon as the form is submitted, so there is no polling interval to wait for.
When to use it
a quote request, a newsletter signup or a contact form whose entries should reach your team without anyone opening the Tilda dashboard.
Watch out
Make asks for Create a webhook before Create a connection on this module; do both, then send a test entry while Run once is listening.
Modules

Everything the Tilda modules can do

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

Tilda1

Get a Page

Action

In MakeRetrieves data of the specified page.

Pulls the data of one page you point it to, so later modules can use it in a message or a record. You get a single bundle back, not a list.

When to use it
you already know which page matters, such as the landing page behind a campaign.
Watch out
it reads one page only; to cover a whole project, start with List Pages.
Tilda2

Get a Project

Action

In MakeRetrieves data of the specified project.

Reads the details of one Tilda project, meaning one of your sites. The result is a single bundle that the next module can map into a report or a CRM field.

When to use it
a scenario handles one client site and needs its project details before acting.
Watch out
if you do not know which project yet, List Projects shows them all first.
Tilda3

Make an API Call

Action

In MakePerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.

Reaches any endpoint of the Tilda API from your scenario, with the connection you already set up. This is how you cover what the five ready-made modules leave out.

When to use it
the other Tilda modules do not offer the request you need.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep the Tilda API documentation open while you fill it in.
Tilda4

List Pages

Search

In MakeLists pages of the specified project.

Returns the pages of the project you choose, each page arriving as its own bundle. Every following module then runs once per page.

When to use it
building a page inventory for a client site, or checking what a project contains.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or many bundles, and each downstream run counts as an operation, so on a large site the count climbs fast.
Tilda5

List Projects

Search

In MakeRetrieves all projects in your account.

Fetches every project in your Tilda account in one go, one bundle per project. It is the natural first step of an account-wide overview.

When to use it
an agency that manages several client sites wants to loop over all of them, often followed by List Pages.
Watch out
it covers the whole account, so every module after it runs once per project, including the ones you did not mean to touch.

FAQ

Tilda and Make: common questions

01Is the Tilda Make integration free?
Yes on the Make side: Tilda is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, 15 minutes minimum between 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) drop the interval to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. On the Tilda side, though, the API keys require a Business Plan subscription, so check that before you build.
02What does the Tilda Make integration need to connect?
Three things: a Make account, a Tilda account on the Business Plan, and the two API keys from that account. You find them in Site Settings, under the Export tab, in API Integration: copy the Public Key and the Secret Key. Then add a Tilda module in Make, click Create a connection and paste both keys. If the first module is Watch New Forms, Make asks you to click Create a webhook before the connection step.
03Does the Tilda trigger in Make fire in real time?
Yes. Watch New Forms is an instant trigger: Tilda calls Make through a webhook as soon as a form is submitted, so the scenario does not wait for a polling interval. That is different from scheduled triggers, which Make checks on the scenario schedule, every 15 minutes by default. The other five Tilda modules are actions and searches, so they run only after something starts the scenario, whether that is this trigger or another app.
04What if a Tilda module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It sends any request the Tilda API accepts, with the same connection as the other Tilda modules, so you can go beyond the five ready-made modules, which only read projects and pages. You will write the request yourself using Tilda's API documentation. Also keep in mind that the Make documentation for this app is marked as AI-generated from Tilda's own docs, so double-check any detail that matters with Tilda.
05Is Make or n8n better for Tilda?
It depends on the tool your team already runs. On Make, Tilda comes with 6 modules, including an instant trigger for form entries and a Make an API Call module for anything else, all available from the Free plan. The same app often has an n8n node as well, so the choice rarely hinges on Tilda itself. Pick the platform where your other automations already live, and compare the two editors side by side before committing.
