Make integration
Monitor Make scenarios and incomplete executions.
Scenario inventory, execution records, webhooks and heartbeats expose different parts of an automation. Datvero combines those signals while keeping their limits explicit.

Direct answer
Direct answer
Datvero can connect to Make with an API token, synchronise scenarios and observe the execution information made available by the platform. Heartbeats can identify expected activity that never arrives. Recovery still requires checking completed modules and downstream effects before replaying a scenario.
A scoped connection defines what can be observed
The token and selected team or organisation determine which scenarios Datvero can see. The token is encrypted before storage and omitted from normal read responses. Missing scenarios may indicate scope or permission issues rather than a platform outage.
- Use a dedicated token with the smallest useful scope.
- Record ownership and a revocation procedure.
- Distinguish loss of API visibility from loss of scenario execution.
Scenario state does not describe every downstream effect
A scenario can stop after some modules have already written data, sent a message or called another service. The execution record is essential evidence, but destinations must be checked when effects are non-idempotent or business-critical.
- Identify the last confirmed module and its output.
- Check external systems before replaying.
- Preserve the original error and execution identifiers.
Heartbeats detect absence, with an explicit schedule
For scheduled scenarios, a heartbeat and expected cadence can detect silence even when no error is recorded. The rule must include timezone, tolerance and planned inactive periods to avoid turning normal inactivity into noise.
- Set cadence from the real operating schedule.
- Include a tolerance appropriate to upstream delays.
- Use business validation where an execution status is insufficient.
Replay is a controlled recovery action
A replay can restore missed work, but it can also repeat actions that already succeeded. Operators should reconcile source, Make execution history and destination, then replay the smallest safe scope and confirm the result.
- Prefer idempotent operations and stable identifiers.
- Separate mitigation from verified resolution.
- Document records that cannot be reconstructed.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can Datvero see every Make scenario?
Only scenarios exposed by the connected token, team and organisation scope.
Is replay always safe?
No. Modules that already produced an effect may run again. Reconcile the destination and confirm idempotency first.
What does a missing heartbeat prove?
It proves only that the expected signal was not received within the configured window; triage must determine why.
