What you can automate

What can the Web on Demand Make integration do for you?

The Web on Demand Make integration links your Web on Demand site to Make, the no-code tool where you build a scenario, meaning the automation itself, out of modules, the building blocks of each step. Here you get two actions: one reads your most recent article, the other reaches any part of the API.

Put your newest post to work elsewhere. Get Latest Article brings back the most recent piece from your site, so a later step in the scenario can reuse its content instead of you copying it by hand.

Start from an event in another tool. Web on Demand has no trigger, so the scenario opens on a module from a different app or on Make's own schedule, and your article module runs right after it.

Reach what the listed modules skip. Make an API Call uses the same connection to hit any endpoint of the Web on Demand API. Handy when your need goes beyond the latest article.

Be aware that Make's documentation for this app is thin: it says there is not enough public information to describe it fully, so test every step with Run once before you rely on it. If you are still weighing tools, our n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria, the Make pricing page explains plans, and Make troubleshooting helps when a run fails.

Connect

How do you connect Web on Demand to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a Web on Demand module

    In your scenario, click the +, search for Web on Demand and pick a module. Then click Create a connection. A connection is your Web on Demand account linked to Make once and reused by both modules.

  2. 02

    Name it and authorize

    Give the connection a name if you like, which helps when you manage several sites. Then either approve Make on the Web on Demand page that opens, or paste the key the app provides, depending on what the window asks for.

  3. 03

    Save the connection

    Click Save. The connection now appears in the module's dropdown, and you can select it in any other Web on Demand module of this scenario or of the next one you build.

First scenario

Build your first scenario with Web on Demand

GoalWhen something happens in another app you use, Make fetches your latest Web on Demand article so the next step can use it.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. Since Web on Demand has no trigger, the first module comes from another app you already use. Make's schedule alone also works: see the FAQ below.

  2. 02

    Add Get Latest Article

    Click the + to the right of that first module, search for Web on Demand and choose Get Latest Article. Pick your connection or create one with Create a connection.

  3. 03

    Fill the module

    Complete the fields the module shows. Once the connection exists, Make lists what it can read from your account, so you choose from a menu instead of typing values from memory.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once. Each module then shows the bundles it received, a bundle being one item passed along, here your article. Check that it is really the one you expect.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the timing on the first module with Scheduling: every 15 minutes by default. Then switch the scenario on. Each module run counts as one operation on your Make plan.

Modules

What the Web on Demand modules do

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

Web on Demand1

Get Latest Article

ActionIn the docs only

This action hands your scenario the article you published most recently on Web on Demand, judging by its name, so later modules can reuse it without any copy and paste from you.

When to use it
pick it whenever a scenario needs your newest piece of content and nothing older, for instance to pass it to a mailing or chat tool.
Watch out
Make publishes no description of its output, so run it once and inspect the bundle before mapping anything.
Web on Demand2

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

Here you get access to any endpoint of the Web on Demand API from inside your scenario, reusing the very same connection, which covers whatever Get Latest Article does not handle.

When to use it
reach for it when you need something other than the newest article and no dedicated module exists for that request.
Watch out
you have to know the API route you want, and Make's documentation for this app says public information is limited.

FAQ

Web on Demand and Make: frequent questions

01Is the Web on Demand Make integration free?
Yes, Web on Demand is a standard app, so it works on Make's Free plan. That plan has limits worth knowing: 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 interval down to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes of execution. Usage is counted in operations, one per module run, each month. This page quotes no price for Web on Demand itself.
02What do you need to connect Web on Demand to Make?
A Web on Demand account and a Make account. The documentation lists no prerequisite and no dedicated steps, so the generic Make flow applies: add a Web on Demand module, click Create a connection, name it if you want, then either authorize Make on the app's page or paste the key the app gives you, and click Save. The connection is then shared by both modules. Since the official documentation is limited, keep your account settings open in case the window asks for a detail you have to look up.
03Does Web on Demand trigger a Make scenario in real time?
No, because Web on Demand has no trigger in Make: neither a scheduled one, which Make checks at intervals, nor an instant one, which the app would call through a webhook. You still have two ways to start. Put a trigger from another app first, and Get Latest Article runs as soon as that app fires. Or let the scenario run on Make's schedule, every 15 minutes by default, with 15 minutes as the minimum on the Free plan and 1 minute on paid plans.
04What if a Web on Demand module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It reaches any endpoint of the Web on Demand API with the connection you already set up, so you are not stuck with the latest article alone. The catch is knowledge: you need to know which route and parameters to send, and Make states that it cannot fully document this app because too little public information exists. Test each call with Run once and read the returned bundle before you build further steps on top of it.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Web on Demand?
It depends on your criteria rather than on the app. On Make, Web on Demand offers 2 actions, Get Latest Article and Make an API Call, plus a visual editor where you test with Run once, and the app runs on the Free plan. The same app often exists as an n8n node too. Compare both on how your team likes to build, on how each tool counts usage and on the rest of your stack. No tool is ranked above the other here; the comparison page linked above sets out the criteria.
