What you can automate

What can the Yotpo - Referrals Make integration do for you?

The Yotpo - Referrals Make integration links your Yotpo account to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario: an automation made of modules, each one a brick that watches, reads or writes something. Here the modules deal with reviews: Make hears when one is created or changed, reads it, searches it or adds a new one.

A review alert for the people who care. Watch Reviews fires the moment a review is created or updated, Get a Review reads it in full, and the next module passes it to the tool your support or product team already opens.

A review export on demand. Search Product Reviews returns the reviews of your catalog as separate bundles (a bundle is one item moving from one module to the next), ready to be written into a sheet or a report.

Reviews collected elsewhere, stored in Yotpo. When feedback arrives through a form or another app, Create a Review adds it to your account so it lives with the rest.

What the page cannot promise: the Make documentation for this app says it was generated with AI from the Yotpo docs and may contain mistakes, so check anything important with Yotpo. When a listed module falls short, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the API. The same app often exists in n8n too; the n8n vs Make comparison helps you choose, and the Make pricing page explains how operations are counted. To learn the editor properly, see the Make training.

Connect

How do you connect Yotpo - Referrals to Make?

  1. 01

    Add the module and open the connection

    Inside your scenario, add any Yotpo - Referrals module and click Create a connection. With Watch Reviews, which is instant, Make first asks you to click Create a webhook, then Create a connection.

  2. 02

    Name the connection

    The Connection name field is optional, yet a clear name helps when you run several stores. A connection is your Yotpo account linked to Make once, then reused by every Yotpo - Referrals module you add.

  3. 03

    Paste your Yotpo credentials

    You need an active Yotpo account with your Store ID and API Secret. In Yotpo, open the Profile icon, then Account Settings and General Settings: the API key sits at the bottom, and Get secret key gives you the Client secret.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Yotpo - Referrals

GoalWhen a review is created or updated in Yotpo, Make fetches it and hands it to another app of your choice.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + in the middle of the canvas to place the first module.

  2. 02

    Set the trigger

    Search for Yotpo - Referrals, pick Watch Reviews, click Create a webhook and then Create a connection with the credentials you copied.

  3. 03

    Read the full review

    Click the + on the right of the trigger, add Get a Review, and map the review coming from Watch Reviews so Make knows which one to open.

  4. 04

    Send it where it helps

    Add one more module from the app your team reads, a chat or a spreadsheet, and map the review data into it. Make lists what it can read once that connection exists.

  5. 05

    Test, then switch it on

    Click Run once and look at the bundles each module received. When the result looks right, switch the scenario on so it reacts to every review created or updated in Yotpo.

Triggers

What starts a Yotpo - Referrals scenario

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

Yotpo - Referrals1Watch Reviews

Watch Reviews

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a review has been created or updated.”

You get a scenario that wakes up the moment a shopper posts a review or someone edits one, with the review ready for the next module. It is the only trigger of this app, so most review workflows begin here.

How it fires
instant, Yotpo calls Make through a webhook as soon as it happens, which is why the module shows the lightning badge.
When to use it
you want support to hear about a harsh review while the customer is still waiting for an answer.
Watch out
updates fire it too, not only new reviews, so add a filter if you only care about fresh ones.
Modules

Everything Yotpo - Referrals can do in Make

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

Yotpo - Referrals1

Create a Review

Action

In Make“Creates a new review.”

Adds a brand-new review to your Yotpo account from data another module brings, so feedback gathered outside Yotpo ends up in the same place as the rest.

When to use it
a post-purchase form in another tool collects opinions and you want them stored in Yotpo.
Watch out
each run writes a new review, so test with Run once before switching the scenario on to avoid duplicates.
Yotpo - Referrals2

Get a Review

Action

In Make“Retrieves an existing review.”

Opens one existing review and hands its content to the rest of the scenario. Reach for it when you already know which review you want, for example the one Watch Reviews just sent.

When to use it
right after the trigger, to read the complete review before routing it to a person.
Watch out
it targets a single review; to go through many at once, a search module fits better.
Yotpo - Referrals3

Make an API Call

Action

In Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized API call.”

Lets you call any endpoint of the Yotpo API from your scenario, reusing the connection you already made. It covers whatever the five other modules leave out.

When to use it
you need a Yotpo feature that no listed module exposes.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep the Yotpo API documentation open and confirm the exact endpoint there.
Yotpo - Referrals4

Search Product Reviews

Search

In Make“Searches for product reviews or lists them all.”

Pulls the reviews tied to your products, or lists them all, and returns each one as its own bundle. That makes it the natural pick for exports and product-level reports.

When to use it
a product manager asks for everything customers said about the catalog, in a sheet.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or many bundles, and every module after it runs once per bundle, which uses operations.
Yotpo - Referrals5

Search Reviews

Search

In Make“Searches for reviews or lists them all.”

Finds reviews across your account, or lists every one, without starting from a product. Choose it over Search Product Reviews when the question is about reviews in general.

When to use it
you rebuild a full history of reviews in another tool after setting up the integration.
Watch out
an empty result gives no bundle, so the modules that follow simply do not run.

FAQ

Questions people ask about Yotpo - Referrals and Make

01Is the Yotpo - Referrals Make integration free?
Yes, it is a standard app, so it works from the Make Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between two 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) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and count usage in credits, meaning operations, each month. Your Yotpo subscription is a separate matter handled on the Yotpo side.
02What do you need to connect Yotpo - Referrals to Make?
An active Yotpo account and access to your Store ID and API Secret. In Yotpo, the Profile icon leads to Account Settings, then General Settings, where the API key appears at the bottom. Get secret key triggers a verification code sent to your email; once you submit it, Yotpo displays the Client secret. In Make, you add a Yotpo - Referrals module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, and paste those credentials. For Watch Reviews, click Create a webhook first.
03Does the Yotpo - Referrals trigger react in real time?
Yes. Watch Reviews is an instant trigger: Yotpo calls Make through a webhook as soon as a review is created or updated, instead of Make checking on a schedule. You can recognize it by the lightning badge on the module in the editor. The scenario still needs to be switched on to receive those calls. Keep in mind that an update to an existing review also starts a run, so a filter after the trigger helps if you only want new reviews.
04What if a Yotpo - Referrals module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. With it, any endpoint of the Yotpo API can be reached from your scenario with the same connection you set up for the other modules, so you are not limited to the 5 actions and searches listed. Check the endpoint in the Yotpo documentation before building the request. Also note that the Make documentation for this app is marked as AI-generated from the Yotpo docs and may contain mistakes, so verify key details with Yotpo directly.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Yotpo - Referrals?
It depends on the workflow you have in mind. On Make, Yotpo - Referrals comes with 6 modules: an instant trigger on reviews, 3 actions including Make an API Call, and 2 searches, all available from the Free plan. The same app often has an n8n node as well, so it is worth checking the node list before deciding. Neither choice is ranked here; compare what each tool offers for the exact reviews workflow you want to build.
