Automating SkootEco with Make

Automate your sustainability efforts by connecting SkootEco with hundreds of apps through Make. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to build custom workflows that make carbon offsetting, sustainability reporting, and eco-friendly initiatives part of your daily operations.

Getting Started

1. Login or Create an Account
   Visit Make and either log in to your existing account or create a new one.

Creating a Scenario

2. Access the Dashboard
   From the Make dashboard, click on the "Create a new scenario" button. Alternatively, navigate to the Scenarios page from the sidebar and create a scenario from there.

3. Build Your Scenario
   Choose to "Build from Scratch", or utilise Make's templates or AI Assistant for a guided setup.

4. Add the First Module
   Click the first module to begin building your Scenario. If needed, refer to Make's "Creating a Scenario" guide for detailed instructions.

Adding SkootEco to Your Scenario

5. Insert a SkootEco Module

   • Create a new module within your Scenario.

   • Search for SkootEco.

   • Select the type of impact you want to make:

     • Plant Trees

     • Reduce CO2 Emissions (fund carbon reduction projects)

     • Recover Plastic Bottles (from coastlines)

     • Allocate Trees, Plastic, and Carbon Offset (for a combination impact)

6. Configure Your SkootEco Module

   • Profile ID:
     Find this by logging into your SkootEco account and navigating to the API & Integrations page. Follow the guide at the top of this page to set up your API.

   • EcoBuddy Email (Optional):
     Use this field to make a joint impact. For example, pull in an email from a previous module to create a joint impact with the sender.

   • Activity Type:
     Enter the purpose of the impact, e.g., "Planting a tree for every email received."

   • Impact Quantity:
     Specify the number of trees to plant, bottles to recover, or tonnes of CO2 to reduce per scenario run.

Finalising and Testing Your Scenario

7. Save Your Scenario
   Use the toolbar to save your progress.

8. Test Your Scenario
   Run your scenario to ensure it functions as intended.

Tracking Your Impact
