Inserting a module between two modules, after a filter not before

How To
,
1

Often I want to insert a module between two others (for example when I realise I need to set new variables that depend upon the left module).

Sometimes I want to keep the filter to be before my inserted module, but it seems that the inserted module always goes before a filter. Is there a way to change this? Regardless of which side of the ‘connection line’ i drag the new module onto, the the filter always appears to the right side.

It can be cumbersome to recreate the filter if has multiple or complex conditions.

Thanks for any tips

Hi @Andrew.AR,

Two things you can do if you don’t bother to re-create the filter:

  1. Add the new module after the second module, then clone the second module and put it after the new module and remove the second module.
  2. Use the Make DevTool, it has a function to copy and paste filters:
    Chrome Extension:
    Make DevTool - Chrome Web Store
    Tutorial:
    Introduction to Make Chrome DevTool (formerly Integromat DevTool)

Cheers,

Fantastic, thank you @Henk-Operative . I wasn’t aware of the Make DevTool. It has so many useful features, it appears to be an official tool so it is surprising that they aren’t build directly into the Make GUI.

Hey there @Andrew.AR :wave:

Glad you are pleased with our DevTool. Just wanted to point out we also have a nice tutorial on how to set up the DevTool and a list of its tools in the community! :smile:
