How can I use data from a previous scenario run?

Hi,

I’m new to Make after having used Zapier for a while.

I am doing some testing with a scenario, and I’m completely confused about using data from certain runs.

I have a webhook as my first step, and in the history log I have a run that includes the data I want to use in my next steps :

However, in the scenario, I can’t seem to find that same run, I have no idea how to display previous runs or how to use them to build the scenarios :

Could anyone point me in the right direction on how to use previous runs as the data for setting up my scenarios?

Thanks a lot,
Charles

Hi @Charles_Goelen

Make allows you to include independent modules that aren’t connected to the overall workflow. There seems to be a disconnect between your trigger and action steps. To solve for this, simply connect the two nodes that appear on the edge of the modules. This is unique to Make and not allowed in Zapier. Please let me know if you still need help!

Welcome to the Make community!

You can use a software like Postman to “replay”/send the same data to your Custom Webhook’s URL.

You can get this data by downloading the module output bundle.

Click on the white speech bubbles on the top-right of each module and select “Download output bundles”.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues. P.S.: investing some effort into the tutorials in the Make Academy will save you lots of time and frustration using Make!

You can do the same with a generic HTTP call module from a separate scenario, that is if you dont want to or dont know how to use Postman. Have it post to the same webhook address and copy/paste the body inside it.

Thank you everyone for taking the time to answer my question!

I’ve used a combination of @samliew and @Stoyan_Vatov 's answers. I downloaded the output bundles and created a new scenario with an HTTP Call request module to send data back to my original scenario’s webhook.

It worked great, thanks a lot !
