Naming note: BrowserAct calls the automation a Bot. The current Make app may still display Workflow or Run a Workflow; these labels refer to the corresponding BrowserAct Bot.

Available Actions

This guide uses the following Make actions:
  • Run a Workflow: runs a Workflow Built Bot and returns a Task ID for tracking.
  • Make an API Call: performs an authorized BrowserAct API request.
Choose a BrowserAct module in Make

Before You Start

Prepare the following:

Map Bot Inputs

After a Bot is selected, Make displays the input parameters required by that Bot. For each parameter, either:
  • Enter a fixed value.
  • Map a value from an earlier Make module.
For example, a Bot input named keyword can receive a fixed search term or a value submitted by a form, Webhook, spreadsheet row, or CRM record. Configure the BrowserAct connection and Bot input parameters

Test the Scenario

  1. Select Run once in Make.
  2. Trigger the scenario with test data.
  3. Confirm that BrowserAct creates a Task.
  4. Review the BrowserAct module output in Make.
  5. If the Task fails, open the related Task in BrowserAct and review its status and result.

Use Bot Results

Add another Make module after BrowserAct and map the returned fields to the destination. Common destinations include:
  • Google Sheets
  • Slack or email
  • Airtable or Notion
  • A database
  • A CRM
  • An AI processing step
Google Sheets is used as a downstream Make module; it is not configured as a direct BrowserAct integration.

Schedule Runs

Use Make’s scheduling settings when the Bot should run automatically.
  1. Configure and test the complete scenario.
  2. Open the scenario scheduling settings.
  3. Choose the required interval or schedule.
  4. Save and activate the scenario.
The available schedules, time zones, retries, and plan limits are controlled by Make.

Common Scenarios

Scheduled Data Collection

Run a BrowserAct Bot on a Make schedule and send the structured result to Google Sheets, a database, or email.

Lead Enrichment

Use a form, CRM event, or Webhook to provide a company name or website. Run the BrowserAct Bot and write the enriched result back to the CRM.

Price Monitoring and Alerts

Run a product-monitoring Bot at a regular interval, compare the returned value, and notify the team when a condition is met.
