405 Method Not Allowed Error with Provider API Integration

How To
1

Hi Make Community,

I’m hoping someone can help me troubleshoot an issue I’m having with integrating a third-party provider’s API into my Make scenario.

I’m using an HTTP module to create orders, but I’m consistently receiving a 405 Method Not Allowed error. I’ve double-checked my configuration, confirmed the request body format, and even successfully tested the request using Postman. However, the error persists in Make.

I can share screenshots of my Make scenario configuration and the error message. If anyone has encountered a similar issue or has any suggestions for resolving this, I would greatly appreciate your help.

Also, I’m happy to provide more specific details in a private message if needed.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Best regards,

Joaquín

Method not allowed seems to indicate that you’re calling the API incorrectly. So the API documentation should tell you what to check for when calling. I now that in one of my scenarios, I have a webhook listening to calls and with an “actionName” and if I don’t get a valid actionName I return a similar error (but a 422 in my case).

Welcome to the Make community!

If you need assistance in setting up the generic HTTP module, please provide additional information about what you have tried with regards to the external service’s Developer API Reference – how you are setting the connection up, a link to the endpoint are you trying to connect to, and what errors you are encountering.

You can also complete this brand new course/tutorial in the Make Academy on how to use external APIs — API calls with HTTP modules

  • API and Endpoints
  • Header and body
  • Multipart/form-data
  • OAuth 2.0

If you need further assistance, please provide the following:

1. Screenshots of module fields and filters

Please share screenshots of relevant module fields and filters in question? It would really help other community members to see what you’re looking at.

You can upload images here using the Upload icon in the text editor:

2. Scenario blueprint

Please export the scenario blueprint file to allow others to view the mappings and settings. At the bottom of the scenario editor, you can click on the three dots to find the Export Blueprint menu item.


(Note: Exporting your scenario will not include private information or keys to your connections)

Uploading it here will look like this:

3. And most importantly, Input/Output bundles

Please provide the input and output bundles of the trigger/iterator/aggregator modules by running the scenario (or get from the scenario History tab), then click the white speech bubble on the top-right of each module and select “Download input/output bundles”.

A.

Save each bundle contents in your text editor as a bundle.txt file, and upload it here into this discussion thread.

Uploading them here will look like this:

module-1-output-bundle.txt (12.3 KB)

B.

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles in this manner:

  • Either add three backticks ``` before and after the code, like this:

    ```
    input/output bundle content goes here
    ```

  • Or use the format code button in the editor:

Providing the input/output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario even if they do not use the external service.

Following these steps will allow others to assist you here. Thanks!
