Tired of copying leads into Waalaxy by hand? The Waalaxy Make integration gives you 2 action modules: one that creates or updates a prospect, one that calls the Waalaxy API directly. This guide is for sales and growth teams, and it walks you from the API key to a first working scenario.

What you can automate

What can the Waalaxy Make integration do for you?

The Waalaxy Make integration lets another app push people into Waalaxy for you. In Make, a scenario is the automation you build: a chain of modules, where each module is one brick of one app. Waalaxy has no trigger, so something else starts the flow, and Waalaxy receives the prospect at the end.

Leads from a form land in Waalaxy. A contact fills in a form in another tool, and the Create or update a prospect module adds that person to Waalaxy. Nobody retypes a name.

A CRM stays in step with Waalaxy. When a deal owner edits a contact in the CRM, the same module updates the prospect instead of creating a duplicate, as its name says. The Agile CRM Make integration or the Airtable Make integration can feed it.

Anything else goes through the API. The Make an API call module reaches any endpoint of the Waalaxy API with the same connection, for the cases the first module does not cover.

What Make does not do here: Waalaxy has no trigger in Make, so nothing starts when an event happens inside Waalaxy. The doc for this app also warns that it is AI-generated from the Waalaxy documentation and may contain mistakes, so check important details with Waalaxy. If you are weighing tools, read n8n vs Make.

Connect

How do you connect Waalaxy to Make?

  1. 01

    Copy your Waalaxy API key

    In Waalaxy, open Settings, then Integrations, then API key. Copy the key shown on screen. You need a Waalaxy account for this; the doc sends you to the Waalaxy pricing page for the subscription.

  2. 02

    Add a Waalaxy module

    In your Make scenario, add a Waalaxy module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Waalaxy account linked to Make once, then reused by both modules. The Connection name field is optional.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Paste the API key you copied, or follow the instructions Make shows on screen, then save. The module can now talk to your Waalaxy account, and the next Waalaxy module you add picks the same connection from the list.

First scenario

Build your first scenario with Waalaxy

GoalWhen a new lead reaches one of your other apps, Make creates or updates that person as a prospect in Waalaxy.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Since Waalaxy has no trigger, this first module comes from the app where your leads arrive.

  2. 02

    Pick the source of your leads

    Search that app by name, choose its module and connect the account. Each lead it returns becomes a bundle: one item that flows to the next module, here one person.

  3. 03

    Add Create or update a prospect

    Click the + on the right, search Waalaxy and choose Create or update a prospect. Pick your Waalaxy connection, then map the lead data from the previous module into the fields Make displays.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once to execute the scenario one time. Open the bundles each module received and check in Waalaxy that the prospect appeared as you expected.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, and switch the scenario on. Each module run on one bundle counts as one operation on your Make plan.

Modules

What the Waalaxy modules do

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

Waalaxy1

Create or update a prospect

ActionIn the docs only

This action puts a person into Waalaxy from any other app in your scenario, so your prospect list fills itself. As its name says, it either creates the prospect or updates the existing one.

When to use it
a lead signs up through a form or changes stage in your CRM, and you want Waalaxy to hold the same person without retyping.
Watch out
map the data carefully, since each run acts on one prospect and counts as one operation.
Waalaxy2

Make an API call

ActionIn the docs only

With this module you reach any endpoint of the Waalaxy API while reusing the connection you already built, so you are not limited to the prospect module. It is the way out when you need something the listed module does not offer.

When to use it
your process needs a Waalaxy request other than creating or updating a prospect.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep the Waalaxy API documentation open while you set it up.

FAQ

Waalaxy and Make: frequent questions

01Is the Waalaxy Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. Waalaxy is a standard app, available from the Make Free plan. That plan gives you 2 active scenarios, at least 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution at most, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) bring the minimum interval down to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. You still need your own Waalaxy account; its price is set by Waalaxy, not by Make.
02What do you need to connect Waalaxy to Make?
A Waalaxy account and its API key. In Waalaxy, go to Settings, then Integrations, then API key, and copy the key shown there. In Make, add a Waalaxy module, click Create a connection, give it a name if you like, and paste the key. The connection is saved once and both Waalaxy modules reuse it afterwards. For the subscription itself, the Make documentation points you to the Waalaxy pricing page.
03Does Waalaxy trigger Make scenarios in real time?
No, because Waalaxy has no trigger module in Make. Nothing inside Waalaxy can start a scenario. You start the flow elsewhere: with the trigger of another app, such as the tool where your leads arrive, or with the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default. Waalaxy then comes at the end of the flow, where Create or update a prospect or Make an API call does the work.
04What if the Waalaxy module you need is missing in Make?
Use Make an API call. It reaches any endpoint of the Waalaxy API with the connection you already set up, so you can cover what Create or update a prospect does not do. You write the request yourself, so keep the Waalaxy API documentation at hand. Also note that the Make doc for this app is AI-generated from the Waalaxy documentation and may contain mistakes, so confirm important details with Waalaxy.
05Should you pick Make or n8n for Waalaxy?
It depends on what you check. In Make, Waalaxy offers two actions, Create or update a prospect and Make an API call, available from the Free plan with a connection built on your API key. The same app often exists as an n8n node too, so the fair test is to compare the modules each tool offers for Waalaxy against the steps your process needs. The n8n vs Make comparison linked above the questions goes further.
