Rendex
Use Case

Render Images & PDFs in Your Make.com Scenarios

Use Make's generic HTTP module to call Rendex — turn HTML into images, screenshot any URL, render Markdown to a PDF, or mint a hosted og:image link — and drop the result into the next module: email, Google Drive, Airtable, or a webhook. No custom app, no code.

The Problem

Make.com connects thousands of apps, but none of them render a branded image or a PDF from your data. So scenarios that need a generated social card, certificate, invoice, or Markdown document stall — you export to a third tool, or abandon the automation. Building your own renderer means hosting a browser somewhere and exposing it to Make over HTTP.

The Solution

Rendex needs no dedicated Make app — the built-in HTTP module is enough. Point it at the Rendex endpoint, add your API key, map your scenario data into the HTML, URL, or Markdown field, and Make receives the rendered image or PDF as a file it can route anywhere. Prefer a URL over a file? Call the Render Link endpoint for a signed, edge-cached og:image link instead. You can even point a Rendex Watch at a page and route its change webhook into a scenario. Sub-3-second edge rendering, 100 free renders a month. (For setup and the full request reference, see the Make integration page and /docs/make.)

See it in action

A Make scenario: a new Google Sheets order triggers the HTTP module to POST invoice HTML to Rendex for a PDF, which is uploaded to Google Drive.

100 free API calls/month — no credit card required. Get your API key and start building.

Built for This Use Case

Generic HTTP Module

No custom app to install. Configure one HTTP module with the Rendex endpoint and your API key and you're rendering.

Image, PDF, Markdown or Render Link

Request PNG/JPEG/WebP for social cards and thumbnails, PDF for invoices and reports, or Markdown-to-PDF for docs. Make handles the returned file natively — or call Render Link for a hosted og:image URL instead of a file.

Map Scenario Data In

Drop Make variables straight into the HTML template — render a unique card, certificate, or invoice for every bundle.

Iterator-Friendly

Combine with Iterator and Array Aggregator to render a batch of images from a list in a single scenario run.

Edge Rendering

Cloudflare edge render in seconds. No browser to host, no Integromat-era container workarounds.

Handles Slow Pages

wait-for-selector and best-attempt keep a slow target from timing out your scenario.

Start Free, Scale as You Grow
