Creating a module out of a template

Hi there,

I’m looking for a way to convert a scenario or template into a module.
My idea is to minimize the customization efforts for the customer in case there is no need to change any step in-between. I want to pick only configurable params and expose that through my module, but the rest keep hidden.

Currently the only solution I see is directly using the APIs from corresponding services involved. But is there a way to “call a module”?

Thanks in advance,
Aram

You can host your own service externally and create a custom app for it.

For more information, see Partner Training and Custom Apps.

You can also use the HTTP module to call an external service.

If the external service has a Developer API Reference/Documentation then you should be able to integrate the endpoints in Make using the generic HTTP “Make a request” module.

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

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

P.S.: Investing some effort into the Make Academy will save you lots of time and frustration using Make.

Thanks @samliew , this sounds more like the standard solution to the problem. I was looking for an automated way, that can be achieved via Make platform and which would not require pulling a new service on cloud. Seems like there is no easy solution.
