hey everyone my name is jannis and in
0:02
today's video I'm going to share with
0:04
you 10 tips that's going to help you
0:06
with your AI automations on
0:09
make.com okay so the first tip I want to
0:12
give you is when you create a new
0:15
scenario the first thing I always do
0:18
myself um is I click on this icon and I
0:23
allow storing of incomplete
0:26
executions I switch to yes and and I
0:30
will explain why because sometimes when
0:33
the scenario is working um there can be
0:36
a bad connection between um make.com and
0:40
the service you are trying to reach um
0:43
and uh thus uh the scenario will fail
0:47
let's say it has gone through 20 models
0:52
and then suddenly the scenario fails it
0:55
throws an error so if you have this
0:57
enabled
1:00
if it's set to yes then you will be able
1:02
to access the incomplete executions so
1:06
here is a real time scenario that I am
1:09
running daily and if I click on
1:13
incomplete executions tab I can see I
1:17
have some errors that I had before so if
1:20
I click on detail of this
1:24
error I can see now that the Pinterest
1:27
module failed but as you can see it
1:29
already already gone through many
1:31
operations so because I have this allow
1:36
storing of incomplete executions enabled
1:39
I can now run
1:42
this scenario from the place I got the
1:46
error instead of starting it all over
1:49
again so this is pretty useful if you
1:51
want to save uh
1:55
operations be able to track down the
1:57
errors that you receive and maybe try to
1:59
solve them this was a simple error
2:01
because uh make.com couldn't connect to
2:05
Pinterest maybe their server were down
2:08
for a couple of seconds and uh they
2:11
couldn't establish the connection but if
2:13
I now click run once this will just
2:15
finish the workflow and finish uh the
2:19
job that has been assigned it to do so
2:23
this is a good thing to do in my
2:27
opinion now the second uh thing I want
2:30
to talk with you this is a cool feature
2:32
of make for example for if you switch
2:35
this to on I can't switch it on but okay
2:40
uh if it's on you can schedule your uh
2:43
scenarios whatever time you need you can
2:46
schedule at regular intervals once every
2:49
day every day of the week days of the
2:52
month specific dates and On Demand if
2:55
you want to manually run it you can
2:57
change the minutes here
3:01
and uh what's great you can add Advan
3:04
scheduling for example you can run this
3:09
um scenario every morning from 7:00 a.m.
3:12
to 11
3:14
a.m. and uh set it to every 15 minutes
3:17
so basically this scenario will run from
3:20
7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. every 15 minutes
3:24
this is good for example if you are
3:25
doing lot of requests to your website
3:28
server you can run the
3:31
scenario on the time when uh there are
3:34
less visitors on your website now I'm
3:36
going to show you the third um tip that
3:40
I use myself uh I'm using lots of
3:43
filters in my workflows for example here
3:48
this filter helps me save ton of
3:51
operations because in this workflow what
3:54
it does it checks Google Sheets for a
3:57
Google drive folder ID then it searches
4:01
for the files in this folder and for
4:04
this scenario to work I need to have
4:06
exactly eight files in the
4:09
folder sometimes by mistake I add seven
4:13
files in the folder or I add more files
4:15
in the folder or I try to reprocess the
4:18
same folder again um but if I set this
4:21
filter for eight this means if I have
4:25
more than eight files in the folder this
4:28
scenario will stop here if I have less
4:31
files than eight the scenario will stop
4:34
again here it only will run if I have
4:37
exactly eight files in this Google drive
4:40
folder that I want to share with you is
4:44
using iterator and how to stop it so
4:47
basically what iterator does it passes
4:51
every single um
4:54
bundle that you set up here for example
4:57
here I select array this array it should
5:01
have eight bundles when it's running and
5:05
after that every bundle will be run
5:08
through
5:09
iterator and there is a point where I
5:12
need to stop the iteration process
5:14
because I don't need to send all eight
5:17
bundles from this array aggregator to
5:20
this
5:21
module I only need to set one I need to
5:24
download all eight uh files from this
5:28
array aggregate to Google Drive and I
5:31
also need to upload all the eight files
5:34
to place it but after that I don't need
5:38
to run iterator anymore so I add array
5:42
aggregator and in this array aggregator
5:46
I set the source model to iterator and
5:50
then I select what time what type of um
5:55
data I need in this array that I'm going
5:57
to use in my future uh modules of the
6:01
scenario the next fourth tip is if you
6:06
need to sort the roots of your rotor to
6:09
do that you can click with your right
6:13
Mouse click
6:15
on the router module and then click
6:18
order Roots this way you can change the
6:21
order of how the scenario will
6:25
run for example now this one is the
6:29
first one if I move it down it's going
6:31
to be the second one
6:33
so um now I had like this it was running
6:39
first this route then it was running
6:43
this route if I switch it here then this
6:47
will run first this will run second and
6:50
so on so yeah this is how you sort your
6:54
rotor Roots it may
6:57
be used when you need some conditional
7:00
logic tip number five um how you select
7:04
multiple
7:05
modules uh if I click on my mouse I can
7:10
drag only the scenario but if I click
7:15
shift I can select multiple
7:18
modules you see I can copy them I can
7:23
paste
7:24
them here and I have the same modules
7:28
tip number six
7:30
let's say I want to start a new scenario
7:33
I'm going to have a different start but
7:35
I need all of these
7:39
um all of these modules in my new
7:42
scenario I don't need to remake all of
7:45
this I just I can just select all of
7:48
these
7:49
modules I can
7:51
click copy and then I head to my new
7:55
scenario this should be open and a new
7:58
scenario should be open in a new tab and
8:01
if I click paste I will have all the
8:05
modules here so this pretty convenient
8:08
if you use the same uh parts of your
8:11
workflows in other
8:15
scenarios okay so let's return to this
8:18
one tip number seven um you there is a
8:23
also another option how you can select
8:25
all of these modules you just click here
8:30
and select whole bunch this will select
8:33
all the modules that
8:36
are after the place where you clicked uh
8:41
select whole bunch so this is pretty
8:43
useful if you need to drag move them
8:46
around or copy them or delete them tip
8:50
number eight
8:52
so when you are making an API call like
8:56
here it takes for some services
9:00
to uh give you a response uh so what I
9:06
do is I add a sleep module I set it for
9:11
example here it's set to 30 seconds you
9:14
can set it up from one up to 300 seconds
9:17
so I know that
9:19
this API takes around 20 to 25 seconds
9:25
to produce the result that's why I put a
9:28
sleep module here and then after the
9:31
Sleep module waits for 30 seconds I make
9:34
a get request from the API if I didn't
9:38
have this module here then it would make
9:42
the get request straight away after this
9:46
first module has run but uh in reality
9:51
it takes up to 25 seconds for the
9:54
service to prepare the response that I
9:58
need so yeah this is number eight so tip
10:02
number nine have you seen these
10:04
workflows or maybe in your own uh
10:07
workflows you have one ch ch GPT then
10:10
you have another one and then you have
10:13
another one and each of these CH GPT
10:15
modules perform a simple task for let's
10:18
say this one generates SEO
10:23
title this one
10:26
generates SEO
10:33
description and this one generates
10:42
exerp if you use it like this it's going
10:45
to be three operations for you so I'm
10:49
going to show you a s more simple way
10:51
and uh this way you can uh save up
10:54
operations for you so you select one
10:57
just gbt instance
11:01
uh this will be our CH
11:05
GPT
11:06
okay and we're going to set this
11:12
here and we're going to set tokens to
11:15
zero model we're going to use 40
11:21
mini we're going to add message so the
11:23
first message will be a user
11:26
prompt um right
11:30
SEO
11:33
title
11:35
SEO method
11:39
description and
11:43
exter for my blog post about and here
11:48
you can enter your variable where you
11:50
have your content or you can uh write
11:54
whatever you want this is just for you
11:56
to understand how I can do all what
11:59
these three modules do separately into
12:01
one CH GPT module about um AI
12:09
Automation and then I add another
12:13
message and it's going to be
12:16
assistant here is a sample
12:23
response
12:25
and here we also add you always
12:30
respond in
12:33
Json okay here you write an example so
12:39
SEO so brackets SEO
12:46
[Music]
12:48
title this
12:50
is SEO
12:53
title
12:56
comma SEO description
13:06
again the same this is SEO
13:13
description and
13:15
another this is
13:26
exter and we're going to close this
13:31
now and here you need to also add um a
13:36
simple comment that I always add so this
13:40
provides a proper Json every time uh you
13:43
will never add these three thingies
13:46
Jason at the start of your response and
13:49
you will never add these three little
13:52
things at the end of your response you
13:54
always end the Json response with a
13:57
correct tag in Json
13:59
quotes use it inside strings need to be
14:03
escaped using a backslash like this so
14:06
it doesn't break up the Json so okay and
14:09
after this we're going to add a
14:15
module that's going to parse the
14:18
Json so as you can see here we would
14:21
have
14:23
um three CH GPT modules that's only for
14:27
this maybe you have 20 of them but here
14:30
I can do this all in one module so I'm
14:33
going to click this run
14:35
once and what I will get I will get a
14:38
three
14:50
variables oh I forgot I need to check
14:53
the result here okay let's run again
15:00
and what I get now I get three
15:03
variables that's that always have the
15:07
same um variable name so it's always
15:10
going to be SEO title it's going to be
15:12
always SEO description and it's going to
15:14
be always excerpt and now I can let's
15:19
say just to show you example I'm going
15:22
to add a row choose whatever file here I
15:26
have okay
15:31
and uh now I can select um these
15:35
variables from the fars Json
15:38
module S
15:40
Title s description and S excerpt and
15:45
it's going to always
15:48
put them in the Google Sheets I don't
15:51
need three CH GPT modules I just need
15:54
one or maybe you need five but you can
15:57
do this in one mod mod if it's about the
16:00
same topic about the same
16:03
thing so this way you can save a lot of
16:06
operations tip number 10 um it's quite a
16:10
difficult one uh but I'm going to show
16:12
you um so basically what this does
16:17
what's the tip number 10 is to use
16:20
Google Sheets to store data for your
16:24
automations while they are running so as
16:27
you can see this part create creates an
16:30
images creates some texts and then it
16:33
stores everything in one row one
16:36
iterator run is one row so this runs it
16:41
adds one row it runs again it adds the
16:44
next row in the Google Sheets then I get
16:47
the range values from this Google sheet
16:51
and I aggregate them Al together I'm
16:54
going to show you a history to show
16:57
what's Happening here so
16:59
so basically as you can see this has run
17:02
16 times and it made 16 rows in Google
17:09
sheet it's a title for a section it's a
17:13
section paragraph and it's a section
17:16
image then I get all the 16 rows from
17:20
the Google Sheets and I aggregate them
17:25
together and in the end I have one big
17:28
bunch of
17:30
text with all the 16
17:33
um rows aggregated into one huge piece
17:38
of content that I use to create my blog
17:46
post as you can see
17:49
here this is all aggregated into
17:54
one one single blog post if you wonder
17:58
how
17:59
the blog post looks it looks like this
18:03
as you can see it has all these sections
18:07
combined into one single blog
18:10
post uh from this make.com
18:14
automation so yeah these are my 10 tips
18:17
