# Make

**Make** is a visual automation platform that lets you build multi-step workflows between Clearout and almost any online service, without writing code. You can use it to automate tasks such as email verification and email discovery whenever data moves between your forms, CRMs, spreadsheets, and other tools.

## What Clearout Can Do in the Make

Clearout works with [Make](https://www.make.com/en/integrations/clearout) to provide you powerful email-related actions that you can use in your workflows. The two main actions you can do are

**1. Verify Email Address**

**2. Find Email Address**

These actions help you keep your data accurate and make outreach easier.

> We'll show you how to use Clearout's Verify Email Address action with Google Sheets in the steps below. You can do the same things for other Clearout actions.

## Setup Clearout on Make

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Create a new scenario <a href="#create-scenario" id="create-scenario"></a>

* **Log in** to your Make account.
* Click **Create a new scenario** to start building your workflow.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/PY9rccTxWdFf51iWylVl" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Set Up & Test Trigger Connection

Every scenario starts with a module (connector) that triggers the workflow. For example, using **Google Sheets**:​

* Add **Google Sheets** as the first module.
* Connect your Google account to Make.
* Select the spreadsheet file and worksheet that contains the email addresses, then click **OK** to proceed.

**To test the trigger**- click Run once in Make and then perform the trigger action by adding a new row in Google Sheets or updating an existing row, depending on your trigger type. The scenario will execute automatically and capture the trigger data. You can use other trigger apps (such as forms or CRM tools) in the same way.

{% step %}

### Connect Your Clearout Account <a href="#connect-your-clearout-account" id="connect-your-clearout-account"></a>

After selecting the Clearout action:

* Click **Add** to create a new connection.​

**Generate your API Token:**

* **Log in** to your Clearout Account.
* Go to [**Developer → API**](https://app.clearout.io/developer/api/list).

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Test Google Sheets Workflow  <a href="#test-workflow" id="test-workflow"></a>

**Example Workflow**

Using Google Sheets as the trigger:

* **Trigger:** New email added in Google Sheets
* **Action:** Clearout → Verify Email Address or Find Email Address
* **Result:** Output (verification status or found email) is updated back in the sheet

**Test the Scenario**

After all modules are configured:

1. Click **Run once** in Make to test the scenario.
2. Check the Clearout module output to view the results for each processed record.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/aTZ6uylUXx95pjj85xY4" alt="Configure and run the module to test the email validation"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

From here, you can add more modules (filters, routers, CRM updates, notifications) to route data based on your workflow logic and fully **automate your process with Clearout and Make.**
