    Application type

    Web application

    Name

    e.g. Make

    Authorized redirect URIs

    https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/app

    OAuth redirect URI domain

    Notice that the redirect URI starts with https://www.integromat.com instead of https://www.make.com. This is currently a known issue in Make.

    Make was formerly called Integromat, which means you can trust this URL as much as any Make URL.

    Please make sure all your OAuth redirect URIs point to https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/oauth2.

  11. A dialog containing app's Client ID and Client Secret pops up.
