Use RoxyAPI with Make

Automate a daily horoscope email, a Life Path lookup on form submit, or a Vedic kundli PDF delivery on Make.com in under 20 minutes. No code.

Make (formerly Integromat) is a visual workflow automation platform with a generous free tier, 1,500+ integrated apps, and a proper HTTP module for talking to any REST API. It is the most popular paid alternative to Zapier in the AI workflow space and has a lighter learning curve than n8n.

What you can build on Make

  • Daily horoscope email blast from a Schedule trigger to Gmail or Mailchimp
  • Tarot card of the day to Slack or Telegram every morning
  • Webhook-powered Life Path calculator that any no-code form can hit
  • Vedic kundli on form submit, rendered as a branded PDF and emailed to the user
  • Dream journal where users email their dream and get matching symbols back
  • Weekly horoscope newsletter with Iterator fanning across all 12 signs
  • AI agent pipeline: Roxy fetches structured data, Claude or GPT rewrites in brand voice

What you need, 30 seconds

  1. A Roxy API key. Get one on the pricing page.
  2. A Make account. The free tier includes the HTTP module and is enough for most workflows.
  3. Five minutes.

If you have not called Roxy from anywhere yet, run the quickstart curl once in a terminal. A successful JSON response confirms the key is good before you wire it into a scenario.

Step 1, connect your first endpoint

Make has two paths for header auth. The plain HTTP module is fastest. The keychain module is more secure for production scenarios.

The path that works on the first try.

  1. Open your scenario, click +, search HTTP, pick the verified HTTP app.
  2. Choose Make a request.
  3. URL paste a Roxy endpoint, for example https://roxyapi.com/api/v2/astrology/horoscope/aries/daily.
  4. Method pick GET or POST.
  5. Scroll to Headers, click Add item.
  6. Name X-API-Key (hyphens required). Value paste your key from your account.
  7. Parse response set to Yes so Make parses the JSON and exposes every field to downstream modules.
  8. Right-click the module, Run this module only.

The keychain path has historically thrown "Missing Authentication header" errors for some users. If that happens, switch back to the plain Make a request module with the header added manually. Both paths reach the same endpoint.

Step 2, ship a useful feature

Here is the full flow for a daily horoscope email. Schedule fires at 8 AM. HTTP fetches the horoscope. Gmail sends the email.

  1. Schedule trigger, every day at 08:00 local time.
  2. HTTP Make a request with URL https://roxyapi.com/api/v2/astrology/horoscope/aries/daily, header X-API-Key, Parse response Yes.
  3. Gmail Send an email, with subject Your daily horoscope and body built from {{2.overview}}, {{2.love}}, {{2.career}}.

For a POST endpoint that takes birth data:

  1. Method POST.
  2. Body type application/JSON with Data structure (Make escapes JSON reserved characters for you).
  3. Request content:
    {
      "date": "{{1.birth_date}}",
      "time": "{{1.birth_time}}",
      "latitude": {{1.birth_lat}},
      "longitude": {{1.birth_lng}},
      "timezone": "{{1.timezone}}"
    }
  4. Drag fields from the upstream trigger into each placeholder.

date is YYYY-MM-DD. time is HH:MM:SS. timezone accepts an IANA identifier ("America/New_York") or a decimal number (5.5). IANA is preferred.

After Parse response runs once, every field in the JSON becomes a draggable variable in every downstream module. Click into any Gmail, Slack, or Google Docs field and drag from the bundle picker. The planets field is a collection (array), so Make exposes it as a repeatable bundle: use an Iterator to loop over planets, or a Set variable module with an expression like get(map(2.planets; sign; name; Sun); 1) to pick the Sun sign.

Step 3, scale to the full surface

Adding the next endpoint is the same pattern: drop another HTTP module, change the URL, change the body, the keychain or header config is reusable. Three places to pick the next one:

Caching in a Data Store

Make does not cache HTTP responses. For daily content, use a Data Store (built-in key-value storage). Pattern: Schedule, Data Store search, router branch for cache hit vs miss, HTTP fetch on miss, Data Store add. One daily fetch per sign, served from cache for the rest of the day.

Gotchas

  • Backend-only key. Every Make scenario runs on Make servers. The key never reaches a browser. Still, use the keychain path for production scenarios you plan to share or export.
  • Plain module exports carry the key. The Make a request module stores the header value in the scenario config. Use Make an API Key Auth request with a keychain for scenarios you plan to share or hand off to a client.
  • Timezone. Prefer IANA strings ("America/New_York"). Decimal offsets like -5 are accepted but do not handle daylight saving. The server resolves IANA to the DST-correct offset for the request date.
  • Rate limits. Every Roxy plan has daily and monthly caps. Add a Sleep module before tight loops, or use Data Store caching. Iterator over 12 signs firing every minute will eat a month of quota in hours.
  • Parse response must be Yes. Without it the output is a raw string and the bundle picker shows nothing.
  • JSON reserved characters. Use Body type application/JSON with Data structure, not the JSON string option, for any payload that includes free-text user input.
