Why Make.com teams add DumplingAI

Data built for Make.com workflows

Run OCR and image analysis on demand without maintaining vision pipelines.

Combine extracted text with Make’s AI, Data Store, and text tools to classify, moderate, or summarize visuals.

Distribute alt text and annotations to tools like Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, or Slack instantly.

Integration overview

How the Make.com + DumplingAI workflow fits together

Use the DumplingAI module to call DumplingAI’s Image Extraction endpoint with your asset, then pass the OCR text, labels, and descriptions deeper into the scenarios.

Integration steps

  1. 1

    Add the DumplingAI module

    Drop the DumplingAI module from the Make app directory after your trigger so you can reuse a single authenticated connection.

  2. 2

    Configure the DumplingAI request

    Authenticate the module with your DumplingAI API key and fill out the module fields—no manual headers or raw JSON needed. Pass a publicly accessible image URL or encoded binary data and specify whether you need text, labels, or both.

  3. 3

    Distribute the annotations

    Map the structured response into Data Stores, routers, or other app modules to keep the automation flowing. Hand the extracted text and tags to moderation flows, alt-text generators, or asset management tools.

Workflow ideas

Automations powered by Image Extraction data

Mix DumplingAI with Make.com’s native actions to uncover new growth, enablement, and operations workflows.

Auto alt-text generator

Scan new creative assets, extract descriptive text, and push suggested alt copy into tools like Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, or Slack.

Content moderation guardrails

Run screenshots through the endpoint, flag risky terms with Make’s AI, Data Store, and text tools, and alert review teams automatically.

Product catalog ingestion

Extract specs from packaging photos and append structured data to product records without manual transcription.

Technical checklist

Best practices before you deploy

Authentication

Store the DumplingAI API key in the Make app connection so every module call stays secure without exposing secrets.

Request payload

Send a reachable image URL or encoded binary plus optional toggles for OCR, labels, and descriptions.

Scaling & retries

Use Make’s error handlers or automatic retries to gracefully handle 429 and 500 responses. When you process large lists, add a queue router or delay module to control concurrency.
