Visual automation, 100+ real-time webhook events, HTTP + Webhooks modules. No custom app needed — 10-minute setup.
PerfexAPI does not ship a native Make.com app. You do not need one — Make's HTTP and Webhooks modules handle every PerfexAPI operation.
On the Perfex CRM side, install the PerfexAPI module and create an API key scoped to the resources your scenario needs.
In Make, add an HTTP connection with Authorization type "API Key", key name "X-API-KEY", and the value from step 1. Base URL is your Perfex CRM domain.
Drop an HTTP "Make a request" module. Point it at https://your-crm.example.com/api/v1/customers (or any other endpoint), choose the method, and Make will parse the response.
For real-time triggers, add a Custom webhook module, copy the webhook URL into PerfexAPI admin, pick the events (100+ available), and save.
Three common patterns you can implement today with PerfexAPI + Make.com.
PerfexAPI webhook triggers on lead.created. Make appends a row to Google Sheets and posts a summary to Slack with the lead value and assigned staff. Under 5 minutes to wire.
invoice.paid webhook triggers a three-branch scenario: a QuickBooks journal entry, a personalized thank-you email via Mailgun, and a Slack message to the account manager.
Scheduled scenario (every Monday 09:00): query PerfexAPI for open deals, filter by stage and age, format as an HTML email, send to the sales team. Uses Make's HTTP module only.
Prefer self-hosted?
If you want your automation engine on your own server, see the n8n integration — PerfexAPI ships a free native n8n community node with 19 resources and 162 operations, plus a managed webhook trigger. Both tools work against the same PerfexAPI module; you can run them side-by-side.
Not officially. You connect through Make's generic HTTP module using your PerfexAPI REST endpoints and the Webhooks module for real-time triggers. Setup takes about 10 minutes and covers every PerfexAPI operation.
Make.com is roughly 75% cheaper per operation than Zapier at the entry tier ($10.59/mo for 10,000 operations vs $29/mo for 2,000 tasks). Both are recurring — pair either with a one-time PerfexAPI license for the CRM side.
Yes. Create a "Custom webhook" module in Make, copy its webhook URL, paste it into PerfexAPI admin under Webhooks, pick the events you want (100+ available), and save. Make's webhook verifier confirms the URL is live and the first event triggers the scenario.
Make.com if you prefer hosted, generous free tier, and excellent visual execution replay. n8n if you want self-hosted, a native community node for PerfexCRM, and unbeatable cost at scale. Both work with the same PerfexAPI module.
Install PerfexAPI once, wire into Make in 10 minutes, and keep your CRM humming while your visual scenarios do the heavy lifting.
