Costlocker is excellent for managing costs and projects. Through integration with make.com , you can expand its capabilities.
Make is a no-code platform that allows you to integrate Costlocker with over 1,000 applications.
Here is a basic guide on how to create a scenario in Make and connect it with our application.
Integration with Make is currently available by invitation only.

To show you how to use Costlocker with Make, we will create a simple integration between Costlocker and Google Sheets. This integration will automatically synchronize all active projects from Costlocker to Google Sheets daily.
💡 For detailed information on how to create the scenario and connection, please read the article above.
⚠️ The example below is for demonstration purposes only. For creating more complex integrations, refer to Make's documentation or contact no-code platform professionals.
Prepare the table where you want to store project data from Costlocker.
In our example, we will use the following structure:
📄You can find and copy our sample Google Sheet here.
1. Create a new scenario and add the List Projects (Seznam projektů) module from the Costlocker application
Create a scenario and start with the List Projects (Seznam projektů) module. The default module settings will load all active projects sorted by project ID.
This list will later be saved to Google Sheets in the scenario.
2. Set the timing to run the scenario every day at 2:00 AM
Click on the clock icon next to the module icon
Set the Run scenario to Everyday
Set the time to 2:00
3. Add the Google Sheet application and the Add row module
This module will allow us to add each project to a separate row.
4. Create a connection to your Google Sheets account
5. Connect the module to your Google Sheet
Select the table you created in the first step—the file where you want to download data from Costlocker.
6. Map the project data from Costlocker to the correct columns in the Google Sheet
In this step, you choose which project fields from Costlocker you want to link to specific columns in the Google Sheet.
7. Test Your Integration
Click the Run Once button to immediately execute the scenario. Your data from Costlocker should start loading into your Google Sheet right away.
You have just created your first integration with Costlocker via Make.
Please let us know what integrations you have created using make.com.
Instructions on how to connect Google Sheets with Make can be found in the Make.com documentation .
Congratulations!
