Zigpoll Make integrationAutomate Zigpoll with Make.

What if every survey answer reached the right tool the moment a visitor submits it? The Zigpoll Make integration gives you 2 modules: an instant trigger for new responses and a module for direct API calls. This guide walks a marketer or ops lead through the connection and a first working scenario.

What you can automate

What does the Zigpoll Make integration let you automate?

The Zigpoll Make integration links your Zigpoll account to Make, a visual tool where you chain apps together without code. In Make, that chain is called a scenario. With Zigpoll, the scenario starts the moment someone answers one of your surveys, and the answer travels on to wherever your team works.

Feedback that lands where people already look. Watch New Survey Response hands each answer to Make as soon as it is submitted. Add a module from a chat or email app after it, and product or support reads a complaint as it arrives instead of finding it in an export later.

A clean record of every answer. A spreadsheet or a CRM module placed after the trigger turns scattered responses into one table your marketing team can sort and filter, instead of exporting results by hand.

Anything the listed modules skip. Make an API Call reuses your Zigpoll connection to reach other parts of the Zigpoll API, which keeps the door open when the two ready-made modules are not enough.

Be clear on the limits: the integration has one trigger and no ready-made action or search, so most of the work happens in the modules of the other apps you pick. Zigpoll's own documentation page in Make also warns that its text is AI-generated and may contain mistakes, so confirm details with Zigpoll. If you are still weighing platforms, the n8n vs Make comparison and the Make review set out the criteria, and the Make training goes further than this page.

Connect

How do you connect Zigpoll to Make?

  1. 01

    Create an API key in Zigpoll

    In your Zigpoll dashboard, open the Integrations section and scroll down to Private Keys. Click Add Key, give it a label you will recognize later, then copy the key shown on screen.

  2. 02

    Open the connection window in Make

    Add a Zigpoll module to your scenario and click Create a connection. The Connection name field is optional; a clear name helps when several people or accounts share the same Make workspace.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Enter the API key you copied from Zigpoll, or follow the instructions Make shows on screen, and confirm. From then on, both Zigpoll modules reuse this connection, meaning your account linked to Make once.

First scenario

Your first scenario: act on each new Zigpoll response

GoalWhen a visitor answers a Zigpoll survey, Make receives the answer and uses it in a follow-up call to the Zigpoll API.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add its first module. A module is one brick of the scenario: a trigger, an action or a search.

  2. 02

    Add the Zigpoll trigger

    Search for Zigpoll and pick Watch New Survey Response. Click Create a webhook, then Create a connection and paste your API key.

  3. 03

    Add the next module

    Click the + on the right of the trigger and pick Make an API Call. Map the values of the response it receives into the call you build from the Zigpoll API documentation.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once, then submit an answer to your survey. Each module shows the bundles it received, a bundle being one item passed along, here one response.

  5. 05

    Switch the scenario on

    Once the test looks right, switch the scenario on. Because the trigger is instant, Zigpoll calls Make as each answer comes in, so there is no polling interval to tune.

Triggers

What starts a Zigpoll scenario

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

Zigpoll1Watch New Survey Response

Watch New Survey Response

Instant trigger

In Make“Trigger when a new survey response occurs”

This trigger gives your scenario a fresh survey answer each time a visitor submits one, so the rest of the flow can work on it right away. It is the only trigger in the Zigpoll app, which makes it the usual starting point.

How it fires
instant. Zigpoll calls Make through a webhook as soon as the response comes in, so Make does not poll on a schedule.
When to use it
any time a new answer should alert a person, fill a table or start a follow-up in another app.
Watch out
click Create a webhook before Create a connection, or the scenario will wait without ever receiving a response.
Modules

What the Zigpoll modules can do

Zigpoll gives you 1 module. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Zigpoll1

Make an API Call

Action

In Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized API call.”

With this module you reach parts of the Zigpoll API that no ready-made module covers, using the connection you already created, so there is no second login to manage.

When to use it
when the trigger alone does not give you what the scenario needs and the Zigpoll API documentation describes a call that does.
Watch out
you build the request yourself from that documentation, so test it with Run once before switching the scenario on.

FAQ

Zigpoll and Make: common questions

01Is the Zigpoll Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. Zigpoll is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That 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 (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. Make counts usage in operations, one operation being one module running on one bundle. You still need your own Zigpoll account, whose subscription is set on the Zigpoll pricing page.
02What do you need to connect Zigpoll to Make?
An active Zigpoll account and an API key. You create the key in the Zigpoll dashboard: go to Integrations, scroll to Private Keys, click Add Key, give it a label and copy the value shown. In Make, add a Zigpoll module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, and paste the key. For the instant trigger, click Create a webhook first, then Create a connection. The connection is stored once and reused by every Zigpoll module in your scenarios, so there is no need to repeat these steps for each new scenario.
03Does the Zigpoll trigger in Make fire in real time?
Yes. Watch New Survey Response is an instant trigger: Zigpoll calls Make through a webhook as soon as a response is submitted, and the module carries the lightning badge in the editor. That differs from a scheduled trigger, which Make polls at a set interval, every 15 minutes by default on a new scenario. For the instant behavior to work, the webhook has to exist, which is why Make asks you to click Create a webhook before creating the connection. Once the scenario is switched on, each new answer starts one run.
04What if a Zigpoll module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It is part of the Zigpoll app in Make and lets a scenario call any endpoint of the Zigpoll API with the connection you already set up. This is the way to cover what the trigger does not, since the app has no other ready-made action or search. You write the request from the Zigpoll API documentation. Keep in mind that the Zigpoll page in the Make documentation is flagged as AI-generated and may contain mistakes, so check anything important with Zigpoll directly before relying on it.
05Make or n8n for Zigpoll?
It depends on where your other automations already run. In Make, Zigpoll offers an instant trigger for new responses plus Make an API Call for the rest, and it works from the Free plan. Many apps also have an n8n node, so check whether one exists for Zigpoll and whether it covers the same event before deciding. Pick the tool your team already maintains, since keeping survey flows next to your other scenarios is simpler to follow. The comparison page on this site lays out the criteria side by side, without declaring a winner.
