Automation integration

AgendaForge + Make

Wire AgendaForge into Make scenarios with your API key — webhooks in, contacts and sessions out.

AgendaForge connects to Make through its public REST API and REST-Hook webhooks, authenticated with an afk_live_ API key — so a Make scenario can listen for event activity and write records back into your directory. It is the same mechanism that powers our Zapier support: webhook events become your triggers, and a Create Contact action (it can also create sessions and sponsors) lets a scenario push data the other way. When a speaker confirms, a submission lands, or a sponsor changes, AgendaForge fires the matching webhook, your Make scenario catches the cue, and the data goes wherever your stack lives — a spreadsheet, a CRM, a Slack DM, a project board. This is real and documented, not a roadmap promise. One honest caveat up front: it is API and webhook based, not a one-click published Make app, so you connect by pasting your API key rather than clicking a logo in Make's app directory.

Capabilities

What the Make integration does.

  • Fires REST-Hook webhook events to Make whenever something meaningful happens in your event, so a scenario can react in real time.
  • Subscribes and unsubscribes Make scenarios to those triggers through the public REST API, authenticated with an afk_live_ key.
  • Writes data back into AgendaForge from a scenario — the Create Contact action also supports creating sessions and sponsors.
  • Connects with the same mechanism as the Zapier integration, so anything you can model in one you can model in the other.

Triggers

What fires, and what happens.

contact.added / updated / removed

Fires a webhook when a contact — speaker, sponsor contact, or registrant — is created, edited, or removed, so a scenario can sync it onward.

sponsor & session events

Fires when sponsors or sessions change, letting a scenario mirror your agenda or sponsor roster into another system.

speaker, submission, review & event lifecycle events

Fires for speaker confirmed/declined, submission created and status changes, review completed, and event published — the lifecycle moments worth automating.

Setup

Connect it in minutes.

  1. Create an API key

    In your event's API settings, generate a key beginning with afk_live_. This authenticates every webhook subscription and API call Make makes on your behalf, so keep it secret and rotate it if exposed.

  2. Subscribe your Make scenario to a trigger

    Using an HTTP or webhook module in Make, register a REST-Hook against the event you care about — contact, session, sponsor, or a lifecycle event. AgendaForge then posts to your scenario's URL whenever that event fires.

  3. Add a Create Contact action to write back

    To push data into AgendaForge, point a Make HTTP module at the Create Contact endpoint (it also creates sessions and sponsors) with your afk_live_ key. The full request shape is documented at /docs/api.

Good to know

This is an API and webhook integration, not a published one-click Make app in Make's directory. You connect by pasting your afk_live_ API key into HTTP or webhook modules and following the REST-Hook setup in /docs/api — there is no logo to click and no managed OAuth handshake. It is exactly the same mechanism behind our Zapier support; the upside is full control, the trade-off is a little manual wiring up front.

Questions

Make, answered.

Q.01 Is there a published AgendaForge app in Make's directory?
No. AgendaForge connects to Make through its public REST API and REST-Hook webhooks rather than a published one-click app. You authenticate with an afk_live_ API key inside Make's HTTP or webhook modules, following the setup documented at /docs/api. It is the same mechanism that powers our Zapier support.
Q.02 What can trigger a Make scenario from AgendaForge?
Webhook events do. Those include contact, session, and sponsor changes, plus lifecycle moments like speaker confirmed or declined, submission created and status changed, review completed, and event published. Your scenario subscribes via a REST-Hook and receives the payload whenever the event fires.
Q.03 Can a Make scenario write data back into AgendaForge?
Yes. The Create Contact action lets a scenario create a contact, and the same API also supports creating sessions and sponsors. You call the documented endpoint from a Make HTTP module using your afk_live_ key, so data can flow both into and out of your event directory.
Q.04 How is this different from the Zapier integration?
It is not — both use the same public REST API and REST-Hook webhooks under the hood, authenticated with an afk_live_ key. Anything you can model as a trigger or action in Zapier you can model in Make. Pick whichever automation tool your team already runs; the AgendaForge side is identical.
