Building a Custom App in Make.com from scratch feat. Gavel, Part 1

Welcome to the 1st episode of my new series on building custom apps on Make.com! In this video, I'm diving deep into the process of creating, deploying, and publishing a custom app using Make for Gavel, a powerful document automation platform popular among law firms. Custom apps are helpful when Make doesn’t yet have a native integration with the application you are using; and allow you to build a connector that would function in exactly the same way as any other app on Make (such as Gmail or HubSpot). 🔖 Chapters: 00:00:00 - Introduction & What are Make Custom Apps? 00:06:13 - What is Gavel? 00:13:35 - Setting Up the Basics of the App 00:16:50 - Base & Authentication 00:27:30 - Making First Requests with the Universal Module 00:35:40 - Error Handling 💡 Key Takeaways: Introduction & What are Make Custom Apps?
