Introduction

Make is an automation platform, which enables you to plug several web applications together.

There is no official Cyke integration on Make, but here is a tutorial written by Manon from Aïny, who is using Make to automate her delivery flow through Make.

It relies on the Cyke API.

Similarly to the API integration, we strongly recommend to operate deliveries created manually before starting to work on an automated integration. Especially, you can probably export deliveries from an ecommerce website, then import the file on Cyke.

How-to

Authentication

To be able to use the plugin, you need two pieces of information:

• API token. You can find it in the general information page in your Cyke Account. From the sidebar: Configuration > General information, and scroll down to the API section to reveal your token.
• Email address. This must be the email address of your Cyke account.

Setup

Use the ‘HTTP’ module:

Make integration example.

In the first module, fetch the identifier for the type of package you need to select:

Get packages from the Cyke API.

The second module is the delivery creation:

Create a delivery on Cyke through the API.

Fill the params depending on your needs.

Using the params from the Cyke API documentation:

  {
    "dropoff": {
      "slot_starting_at": "{{if(1.`Livraison après-midi ?`; formatDate(1.`Livraison_début`; "YYYY-MM-DD") + "T14:00:00.000+02:00"""; formatDate(1.`Livraison_début`; "YYYY-MM-DD") + "T09:00:00.000+02:00""")}},
      "slot_ending_at": "{{if(1.`Livraison après-midi ?`; formatDate(1.Livraison_fin; "YYYY-MM-DD") + "T18:00:00.000+02:00"""; formatDate(1.Livraison_fin; "YYYY-MM-DD") + "T13:00:00.000+02:00""")}},
      "place": {
        "recipient_name": "{{1.Nom_du_client[]}}",
        "recipient_phone": "{{1.Telephone[]}}",
        "company_name": "{{1.Projet[]}}",
        "address": "{{1.Adresse[]}}",
        "postal_code": "{{1.`Code postal`[]}}",
        "city": "{{1.Ville[]}}",
        "address_instructions": "{{1.`Complément adresse`[]}}"
      }
    },
    "packages": [
        {
          "package_type_id": {{11.data[].id}},
          "amount": 1
        }
    ],
    "comments": "{{1.`Commentaire pour Olvo`}}",
    "client_order_reference": "{{1.`reference envoi`}}",
    "bring_back_containers": false
  }

Do not try to use ‘values’ or this kind of things, because the structure of the params expected by Cyke wouldn’t work with this module. Just keep using ‘map’.
