Use FFmpeg with Make
Automate video processing with visual workflows. Connect Renderio's FFmpeg cloud API to Make (formerly Integromat) and process videos at scale.
Connect FFmpeg to Make
Make connects your apps visually. Renderio processes your videos with full FFmpeg power. Together, you get automated video workflows that handle conversion, compression, resizing, and more without manual intervention.
Build visual video processing scenarios
Make's drag-and-drop scenario builder lets you wire up video processing without writing code. Drop in an HTTP module, point it at Renderio, and your videos get processed as part of the flow. Use routers to branch based on file type or size.
Trigger FFmpeg commands from 3,000+ apps
A new file in Google Drive, a row in Airtable, a Shopify product update, a form submission in Typeform — any event from Make's 3,000+ app integrations can kick off an FFmpeg job through Renderio.
Use the HTTP module to call Renderio
Make's HTTP module sends a POST request to Renderio's FFmpeg API. Pass your video URL, your FFmpeg command, and your API key. One module, one request, full FFmpeg power.
Handle async results via webhooks
Renderio processes videos asynchronously and fires a webhook when the job finishes. Your Make scenario catches the result and routes the output file wherever it needs to go — no polling loops required.
How to connect FFmpeg to Make
No coding required \u2014 Make's visual builder handles the workflow. Generate your API key and you're ready to start processing videos.
Create a Make scenario
Open Make and start a new scenario. This is the visual workflow that will connect your trigger app to Renderio's FFmpeg API.
Add your trigger module
Choose the app that starts the workflow — Google Drive, Shopify, Airtable, Webflow, or any of Make's 3,000+ supported apps. Set the event that fires your scenario.
Add an HTTP module to call Renderio
Add the HTTP “Make a request” module. Set the method to POST, point the URL at Renderio's API endpoint, and include your API key in the headers.
Configure your FFmpeg command payload
In the JSON request body, pass the video URL you want to process and the FFmpeg command to run. Any command FFmpeg supports — conversion, compression, resizing, merging, watermarking.
Add a webhook module for results
Renderio returns a command ID immediately and processes the video in the background. Set up a separate scenario with a Webhook trigger to receive the callback when processing finishes, or poll the status endpoint from a follow-up HTTP module in the same scenario.
Who uses FFmpeg with Make
From one-off video conversions to full production pipelines, Renderio fits into your Make scenarios with zero infrastructure.
Marketing teams
Resize campaign videos for every social platform, compress assets for email, and batch-process ad creatives. Use Make's iterator module to loop through a folder of videos and process each one automatically.
E-commerce automation
A Shopify product update triggers your Make scenario. Renderio converts the product video to a web-friendly format, generates a thumbnail, and compresses the file. Make uploads the results back to your store.
Course creators
New lecture recording lands in Google Drive. Make detects it, sends it to Renderio to transcode to 720p, extracts a chapter thumbnail, and uploads the processed files to your course platform.
Agency workflows
Build repeatable video processing pipelines for client projects. Watermark deliverables, convert to client-specified formats, and use Make's routers to distribute processed files to the right delivery folders.
Content operations
Turn long-form video into social clips, extract audio for podcast distribution, and generate preview images for your content library. Schedule the scenario to run on a batch of new uploads every hour.
