MySQL / MariaDB

In short: Make can be connected directly to a MySQL or MariaDB database via a custom view, automatically retrieving fields such as name, email, and other key data.

MySQL/MariaDB and Make – sync data directly from the database

Does your organisation store data in a dedicated MySQL or MariaDB database without an established CRM system? You can connect your database directly to Make to synchronise relevant contacts automatically, eliminating manual exports.

What is MySQL/MariaDB?

MySQL and MariaDB are among the most widely used open-source database systems globally. They are used by everything from small businesses to large enterprises to store and structure data, often serving as the foundation for custom-built systems and websites.

How the integration works

Since database structures rarely match Make's requirements exactly, the integration connects to a dedicated view within the database. This intermediary layer compiles and organises the relevant information before retrieval. This ensures fields such as name, email address, role, or other key data are retrieved efficiently in the correct format, ready for use in Make.

This integration requires you to define a view, either independently or in collaboration with us.

Why connect MySQL/MariaDB to Make?

  • Flexible – works independently of whether you have an established CRM system

  • Customised – the view allows you to determine exactly which data to synchronise

  • No manual exports – data is retrieved automatically, removing the need for manual list uploads

  • Ideal for custom systems – particularly well-suited when you have built your own solution around the database
