Hey @Sortmaker,

Great to see your question here in the community! :slight_smile:

I just wanted to clarify that this is a community of Make users helping out and sharing knowledge. This means we don’t have access to any of your scenarios, organizations etc.
It’s therefore always best to share some screenshots so that the community can see what’s going on in your scenarios visually.

Detailed information could be provided for example by an:

  1. overview of your scenario setup (functions, mappings, variables etc.)
  2. the input area of the module you are having trouble with
  3. the output area of the module you are getting data from

Thank you!

In case you think this is not needed, please disregard this message. I have send this message by automation since you don’t have any attachments.

Thank you for the reply.

There is no scenario, I wont start untill I can clear up that there is a way to connect my local Firebird SQL Server to the make API.

I beleive there should be some solution, its not just Firebird allmost ANY SQL is not on the list. Except MYSQL and probably MS SQL.

@Sortmaker You would need an SQL server which is hosted somewhere so it can be reached.
Make does not work with local instances. Most likely you would have to use a different platform.

What you could do however is use some kind of local automation tool which does the SQL queries and triggers a webhook afterwards. This webhook can be sitting in Make.

Hope this helps you!
