Individually arrangedFundamentals of Automation and AI Agent Creation in Make
This training teaches how to design and implement automations in Make, from simple scenarios to more advanced workflows – all without programming. Participants will learn process-oriented approaches, including triggers and actions, field mapping, and best practices for testing and running automations. The second part focuses on AI-based automations and practical applications in marketing, sales, and customer service. Topics include data organization, lead qualification, content creation, data enrichment, and the basics of building “intelligent agents” that respond to events and perform tasks using various tools. The course is implementation-oriented: participants leave with ready-to-use workflows that can be adapted to their own systems.
Participant Requirements
- Comfortable using a web browser
- Make account (created during the workshop)
- Accounts in applications used during the workshop – Google, Slack, Trello (created before or during the workshop)
- Basic knowledge of Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel
What You Will Learn
- Understand the fundamentals of automation in Make (triggers, actions, scenarios, scheduling, execution limits)
- Design and build automations from scratch (connecting applications, configuring triggers, field mapping, running and publishing workflows)
- Build advanced logic and data processing (filters, conditions, branching, working with records, merging results)
- Use technical integrations in automations (webhooks, basic API calls, mapping responses, practical use cases)
- Leverage AI in automations and learn the basics of AI agents (connecting AI tools, building and testing commands, planning, and running agents based on events)
- Design automations for common business processes (notifications for new requests, customer request handling, transferring data between spreadsheets and CRM)
- Implement projects with AI and AI agents (e.g., AI agent for responding to YouTube comments, AI agent for searching and enriching leads with output to Google Sheets)
