Connect Make to Blotato

To connect Make.com with Blotato, I recommend importing this sample Make blueprint.
This blueprint is an automated AI Social Media System that analyzes an article and creates text posts (Twitter, Threads), text and image posts (Linkedin, Facebook, Instagram), and AI avatar videos (Tiktok).
If you just want to learn how the Make modules call Blotato, check these modules:
Setup Social Accounts
Upload to Blotato
Publish
Here's the Youtube tutorial and detailed walkthrough of the AI Social Media System:
This system uses AI to automate content creation and posting across platforms:
🔥 Monitors Google Sheets for new articles
🔥 Writes AI social media posts
🔥 Generates AI images
🔥 Generates AI avatar clone videos
🔥 Publish to social media using Blotato API
I included multiple different types of content generated (text, image, video), so that you can easily customize this AI system to fit your needs.
Log into Make
Go to "Scenarios"‘
Click on "Create a new scenario"
Click on "Import Blueprint" (top-right corner)
Upload my prebuilt Make Blueprint
Here’s how everything works:
Google Sheets - Watch Rows
Monitors a spreadsheet for new URLs.
Triggers the automation when new row is added.
HTTP Module - Fetch Content
Retrieves the article from the provided URL in the Google Sheet.
OpenAI - Extract Article
Extracts the text article from the raw HTML. This helps clean up the input for our AI writing prompts.
OpenAI - Create Content
Write posts for LinkedIn, Twitter, Threads, Facebook, Instagram.
Generate AI image prompt, then generate AI image with DALLE-3.
Write AI video script and caption for AI avatar video for Tiktok.
Blotato - Automated Posting
Publish content to social media platforms via Blotato API.
My Google Sheet is super simple. I just drop in an article URL, and the entire automation runs. You can easily switch this to Airtable, Notion, Slack, etc. depending on your flow.
Make a new Google Sheet
Create a column with header URL
Connect the Google Sheet to Make
Select the correct spreadsheet ID and sheet name
Enable "Includes Headers"
Next, you’ll need to setup your Blotato API Key and Account IDs:
Login to Blotato.com
Go to “Settings”
Copy your API key and account IDs
Paste them into the Make node “Setup Social Accounts”

You’ll need to sign up for Heygen’s API plan, which is separate from their web app.
Within Make, select your Heygen avatar and voice.
After setting up your accounts and connecting them in Make, run the scenario with a real article URL, so that you have sample data flowing through the system.
⚡️ You don’t need to change anything else to get the system working!
I also recommend testing one branch at a time.
Simply UNLINK the other branches, while you isolate testing one branch. When done, link all branches back to the main router.
⚠️ Common troubleshooting issues:
If posts fail to publish, check your API key and Account IDs.
If your Make variables appear transparent with a colored border, run the scenario once so you have data flowing in the system.
If your avatar video is not generated, most likely you need to upgrade to a paid Heygen API plan OR increase the wait timeout.
Once configured, this AI Social Media System will:
Pull content from Google Sheets
Use AI to write social media posts
Use AI to generate images and avatar video
Post automatically to all major platforms
