What you can automate

What does the Tremendous Make integration let you automate?

It lets a Make scenario, the automation you build in Make, create Tremendous reward orders for you. A scenario is a chain of modules, each module being one brick that does one job. Here the Tremendous bricks are actions: they send a reward, they never watch Tremendous for news.

Thank people who answer a survey. A research team collects answers in a form tool; each new answer feeds Send an Email Reward, and the respondent gets a gift by email without anyone copying addresses by hand.

Pay out referral bonuses from your base. When a referral is marked as qualified in the table your sales team already uses, the scenario creates one reward order for that person. If that table lives in Airtable, the Airtable Make integration shows how to plug it in as the starting point.

Reach any other part of the Tremendous API. Anything beyond a single email reward goes through Make an API Call, which reuses the same connection.

What Make does not do here: with no trigger module, nothing in Tremendous can start a scenario. The start always comes from another app or from the schedule. The Make documentation for this app also warns that it is AI-generated and advises checking important details with Tremendous directly.

Connect

How do you connect your Tremendous account to Make?

  1. 01

    Generate an API key in Tremendous

    In the Tremendous dashboard, open Team Settings, go to the Developers tab and click Generate. Copy the API key that appears on screen. You need a Tremendous account before any of this works.

  2. 02

    Add a Tremendous module in Make

    Inside your scenario, add a Tremendous module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Tremendous account linked to Make once, then reused by every Tremendous module you add later.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Give the connection a clear label in Connection name if you like, it is optional. Paste the API key you copied, follow the on-screen prompts, and Make stores the connection for the rest of the scenario.

First scenario

Your first scenario: a reward for every new entry

GoalWhen a new person lands in your source app, Make sends them a Tremendous email reward.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Tremendous has no trigger, so this first module comes from the app that holds your people.

  2. 02

    Pick the starting app

    Search your form tool, sheet or CRM by name, choose the module that brings in new entries, and link that account. Each entry becomes a bundle, one item passed to the next module.

  3. 03

    Add Send an Email Reward

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search Tremendous and pick Send an Email Reward. Choose your connection, then map the recipient details from the previous module.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once and read the bundles each module received. Send an Email Reward creates a real order even during a test, so put your own address as the recipient the first time.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Open the clock on the first module: a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default. Keep that or adjust it, then switch the scenario on so each new entry gets its reward.

Modules

What the Tremendous modules do

Tremendous gives you 2 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Tremendous1

Make an API Call

Action

In MakePerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.

This module opens the rest of the Tremendous API to your scenario, using the connection you already set up, so you are not limited to the one ready-made action.

When to use it
the moment you need something Send an Email Reward does not cover, reach for this one instead of looking for another tool.
Watch out
you describe the request yourself, so keep the Tremendous API reference open while you fill it in.
Tremendous2

Send an Email Reward

Action

In MakeCreates a new order with a single email reward.

Each time a bundle reaches it, this module creates a new Tremendous order holding a single reward delivered by email. One person in, one reward out.

When to use it
a survey answer, a qualified referral or a closed deal should translate into a thank-you gift with nobody clicking through the dashboard.
Watch out
ten bundles mean ten orders and ten operations, so filter your source before this step.

FAQ

Questions about the Tremendous Make integration

01Is the Tremendous Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. Tremendous is a standard app, so it is available from the Free plan onward, along with more than 3,000 other standard apps. The Free plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between scheduled runs, up to 5 minutes per execution, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans drop the interval to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. Every module run counts as an operation on your plan. Your Tremendous subscription is a separate matter, covered on the Tremendous pricing page.
02What do you need to connect Tremendous to Make?
Two things: a Tremendous account and an API key from that account. To get the key, open Team Settings in the Tremendous dashboard, go to the Developers tab, click Generate and copy the key shown on screen. In Make, add any Tremendous module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, and paste the key. That single connection then serves both Tremendous modules, so you only go through these steps once per account.
03Does the Tremendous Make integration react in real time?
No, because it has no trigger at all. Nothing in Tremendous can start a scenario on its own. The scenario begins with a module from another app, such as a form, a sheet or a CRM, or it simply runs on its schedule, which is every 15 minutes by default for a new scenario. On paid plans the interval can go down to 1 minute. Tremendous only comes in as the step that sends the reward.
04What if the Tremendous module you need is missing?
Use Make an API Call. It is part of the Tremendous app in Make and can reach any endpoint of the Tremendous API with the same connection as Send an Email Reward. That covers anything the ready-made module does not handle. Keep in mind that the Make documentation for this app says it was generated with AI from the official Tremendous docs, so check important details against Tremendous itself before relying on them.
05Make or n8n for Tremendous?
It depends on what your team already runs. In Make, Tremendous is a standard app with two modules, usable from the Free plan, and the connection takes an API key. Whether n8n offers a ready node for Tremendous is not covered on this page, so check that before choosing. Pick the tool where the rest of your workflow already lives: the reward step is only one link in the chain, and the source of your recipients matters just as much.
