Tip: How to Find your Make scenarios super fast with Chrome Site Search

This is a bit random, but I wanted to share a small Make tip / trick that I realized was possible today.

If you are like me, throughout your entire day, you often go to Make and search for some specific scenarios. You can speed up this process with a built-in capability of Chrome and Make working together. This takes about 2 minutes to setup and once you do, you can type @Make [search term] in your Chrome address bar to quickly find any scenarios that match that search term.


Remember: this search will include all scenarios that include the search term in their name, contain an app with that search term, or are in a folder with that search term. e.g. Typing “monday” will include all scenarios that include a Monday module.

Steps to set this up

  1. In Chrome, go to “Settings” > “Search engine” on the left side
  2. Click “Manage search engines and site search”
  3. Scroll down to “Site search” and click “Add”
  4. Give this search a helpful name (e.g. “My Make Scenarios”)
  5. Add an easy to remember shortcut (e.g. “@Make” )
  6. Enter a similar URL to this one:
    https://{zone}.make.com/{teamId}/scenarios?folder=all&tab=all&name="%s"
    where zone is something like us1 or eu2 and teamID is a number (log into Make and see what it looks like when you look at a list of scenarios.)

Of course, for those of you with access to multiple teams across multiple zones, you may have to get fancy with multiple site searches like @MakeMarketing, each with the appropriate team url configured.

I hope someone enjoys this dorky tip as much as I do. Cheers.

Nice recommendation. Thanks! Though found a little improvement I wanted to share. The search terms added in Make Scenario search was missing the first and last character of what was typed in the browser. Solved by added a space to the search parameter: &name=" %s "
