The Make Code App is revolutionizing automation by seamlessly merging native JavaScript and Python execution with Make’s renowned visual workflows. Here’s how this breakthrough tool empowers organizations to build smarter, more flexible automations—no external servers, cloud functions, or compromise required.

Make Code App Unlocks Custom Logic for Automation

Make previously helped businesses automate with no-code and visual mapping features, making workflows fast and accessible. However, handling advanced data workflows or proprietary business logic often meant jumping between various cloud services and encountering hurdles in scalability and maintenance. Now, the Make Code App lets teams run custom JavaScript or Python directly inside their Make scenarios, bringing complete control and flexibility to every automation.

Key Features & Capabilities

• Native Execution: Write and run JavaScript or Python right within Make’s workflow builder.

• Seamless Integration: Access scenario inputs from earlier steps, output structured results, and flow data through downstream modules.

• Library Support: Import popular libraries (Moment.js, pandas, lodash, requests), or—on Enterprise plans—add any third-party library, from numpy to spacy, for true industry-grade tasks.

• Editor Experience: Enjoy syntax highlighting, autocompletion, instant debugging, and error feedback—all securely sandboxed.

• Security & Scale: Code runs in Make’s isolated cloud environment with zero DevOps overhead. Enterprise users benefit from extended runtime (up to 300 seconds), higher resource limits, and enhanced debugging.

Real-World Impact: Transformative Use Cases

Complex Data Transformation
E-commerce platforms often send data in deeply nested JSON structures, while CRMs require totally different formats. The Make Code App lets teams write Python scripts (utilizing pandas) to reshape and normalize data on the fly, ensuring error-free handoffs and transparent, auditable flows.

Agentic AI Automation
Modern businesses rely on AI workflows—sometimes with agents like ChatGPT generating dynamic Python for specialized tasks. With Make Code, AI-generated code is executed safely and visibly within a sandbox, unlocking true agentic automation.

Finance & Audit Tools
Financial teams can reconcile thousands of transactions using proprietary scripts and custom algorithms. Specialized libraries run at scale, automating reconciliation, anomaly detection, and report generation—all in one environment.

Personalized Customer Experiences
Marketing and CX pros can implement proprietary scoring and ML-based personalization, keeping every detail private and streamlined inside their Make scenarios.

Making Automation Transparent & Reliable

Unlike black-box code execution, Make Code App ensures every input, output, error, and execution step is logged and visible. This transparency is mission-critical for troubleshooting late-night errors, onboarding new teammates, validating AI-generated logic, and meeting compliance demands—putting full auditability front and center.

Getting Started: Fast, Flexible, Scalable

• Drag & Drop Module: Simply add the Make Code module to any scenario.

• Language Choice: Select JavaScript or Python, and start coding with instant visual mapping.

• Test, Debug, Deploy: Use ‘Run Once’ for real data previews; structure outputs for perfect downstream automation.

• Reusable Logic: Repurpose custom data transformations and algorithms across multiple workflows, scaling operational efficiency.

The Future of Visual-first Automation

Make’s visual-first platform empowers both technical and non-technical users. With the Make Code App, there’s no need to choose between no-code and code. Now, automation teams access the best of both worlds—full visibility, unlimited flexibility, and code-powered intelligence, all unified under a single interface.
