Using Dxn with Make
Make (formerly Integromat) is a visual automation platform that lets you connect apps and services into workflows. By combining Make with Dxn, you can add powerful, maintainable decisioning logic to any automation — without embedding complex rules directly in your scenarios.
Why Use Dxn with Make?
Make is excellent at orchestrating steps and moving data between services. But when a workflow needs to make a decision — approve or reject, route, classify, calculate — that logic often ends up buried in filters, routers, and nested conditions inside the scenario itself.
This creates real problems over time:
- Hard to read — decision logic scattered across visual nodes is difficult to follow
- Hard to change — updating a rule means finding and editing filters inside a live scenario
- Not reusable — the same logic gets duplicated across multiple scenarios
- No versioning — there's no audit trail of when or why a rule changed
Dxn solves this by externalising your decision logic into a versioned, named policy that any scenario can call.
How It Works
Use Make's built-in HTTP module to call the Dxn evaluation API from any point in your scenario. Pass in your context data as the request body and use the decision output to drive the next steps.
