Automating Oplead Scenarios with Make and the Public API

Build powerful automations between Oplead and other tools using Make. Connect the Oplead Public API to your no-code scenarios using HTTP modules, filters, and custom criteria.

What is Make?

Make is an automation platform designed to simplify and streamline digital workflows. It lets users connect various online services and applications to automate tasks and processes — no coding required.

Unlike traditional programming, Make offers a visual drag-and-drop interface where you can build "scenarios" made of interconnected modules (actions, triggers, data transformation).

💡 What Make offers:

• A library of pre-built templates and integrations

• A visual interface to design your own automations

• Integration with services like email, databases, APIs, and more

Tutorial: How to Integrate Oplead with Make

This guide walks you through setting up Make to connect with the Oplead Public API — from importing a template to calling the lead search endpoint, customizing filters, and connecting actions.

---

Prerequisites

• A Make account

• Access to the Oplead Public API: https://api.oplead.com

• A valid API key (provided by the Oplead team)

• Download the ready-made scenario template JSON

---

Integration Steps

1. Use the Oplead Template

• Download the file here : Oplead-Template.json

• In Make, create a new blank scenario

• Use “Import Blueprint” and upload the template file

• Click Save to import the scenario

The template will appear in your Make scenario :

2. Configure the API Call to Oplead

Authentication (Credentials)

In the HTTP module, set your credentials as follows:

• Header key: X-Api-Key

• Value: your API token

• Placement: In the header

---

3. Customize Search Criteria

• In the HTTP module, open the Query String section
  

• Click “Add Parameter” and fill in:

  • Name: the search field (e.g. created_at_from)

  • Value: the value (e.g. )

4. Connect Actions to the API Call

Once the Oplead API is configured, it won't do anything yet until you connect it to your desired apps or logic.

Here’s how to structure your scenario:

• Before the API call: Use a trigger like Schedule, Webhook, or Watch (e.g. Google Sheets, CRM)

• During the lead iteration:

  • Use Repeater to process each lead

  • Add logic modules: filters, conditions, enrichment, notifications

• After the Commit module (if used): Avoid adding anything — modules after Commit will be ignored

---

5. Test & Run the Scenario

• Click the clock icon on the first module to adjust frequency (default: every 15 min)

• Use “Run once” to test your setup manually

• Turn on the scenario using the On/Off toggle

---

Tips & Best Practices

• Don't modify the Page parameter: it ensures proper paging through multiple lead results

• Minimize your modules: every module per lead = 1 operation (charged in Make)

• Use recurrence smartly:
  Example: retrieve leads untouched for 7+ days
  Use now, addDays, formatDate functions in criteria values
