Make lets you connect SmartSuite with thousands of the most popular apps, so you can automate your work and have more time for what matters most—no code required.

Connect Your Apps and Automate Workflows

Easy automation for busy people, Make moves info between your web apps automatically, so you can focus on your most important work.

SmartSuite provides a work management platform that unites the essential elements used to get work done: databases, spreadsheets, documents, collaboration tools, file management and automated workflows. Whether you’re leading a project, managing an ongoing process or handling everyday tasks, SmartSuite lets you get everything done using a single platform.

SmartSuite’s easy to use app builder lets you rapidly create workflows using easy to assemble components that support any process. With the help of Make, you can also instantly bring your existing data into those workflows, or output information to them. You can use Make to create new SmartSuite records and update existing ones, or trigger external actions when something specific changes in SmartSuite.

Creating Your First Make Integration

The basic structure of a Scenario includes a trigger and an action. When a specified event occurs in the trigger (an opportunity is updated in SalesForce, for example) it automatically triggers an action in the specified system.

Some examples of scenarios might include:

  • When a record is created in SmartSuite, create a new line in a Google spreadsheet

  • When a new lead is created in HubSpot, create a record in SmartSuite

  • When a record is updated in SmartSuite, send an SMS message via Twilio

To create a Scenario for SmartSuite, you'll need to login to Make (or create a workspace). Here's how you can connect your SmartSuite workspace to Make:
