Master Using Data Across Routes in Make.com

Have you ever wondered how to use data from one route in another while working with Make.com? If so, you're not alone. This is a common question among users, and today, we're going to walk you through the solution.

The Problem

Let's say you have a scenario where you want to use the data from your first route (e.g., the easybill module) in your last route (e.g., a Slack message). You might think that the data from route 1 would be available in route 2 or 3, but that's not how it works.

The Solution

The solution to this problem is to use the Set Variables/Multiple Variables Modules in the prior routes and then use the Get Variables/Get Variables Modules in the route where you want to access those values. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Go to Tools and select Set Variables/Multiple Variables Modules in the prior routes.
2. Then, in the route where you want to access those values, select Get Variables/Get Variables Modules.

This should allow you to use the data from one route in another.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you're still having trouble, you can also use the datastore for this purpose, although it might be overkill for this specific problem. You can also check out the options listed in the converger module help page for more workarounds.

Conclusion

In conclusion, while it might seem counterintuitive at first, using data from one route in another in Make.com is possible with the use of Set Variables/Multiple Variables Modules and Get Variables/Get Variables Modules. We hope this guide has been helpful and encourages you to continue exploring the many features of Make.com.
