Integrate with Make.com - Rhombus Developer Documentation

Automate Rhombus API operations using Make.com's (formerly Integromat) visual workflow builder. Alternative to writing custom code for common integration patterns.

Quick start

Get API Key
Generate an API key in the Rhombus Console under Settings → Integrations & Developer Resources → API Tokens → Add API Key
Connect in Make
Add Rhombus module in Make.com, authenticate with your API key
Build Scenario
Add modules, configure actions, test and activate

Available modules

Access control

Module	Function	API Equivalent
Add Users to Group	Add users to access control groups	`POST /api/accesscontrol/addUsersToAccessControlGroup`
Create Group	Create new access control group	`POST /api/accesscontrol/createAccessControlGroup`
Assign Credential	Assign unassigned credential to user	`POST /api/accesscontrol/assignAccessControlCredential`
Delete User	Remove user from organization	`POST /api/user/deleteUser`

Camera & video

Module	Function	API Equivalent
Create HTTP Stream	Generate raw HTTP video stream	`POST /api/camera/createRawHttpStream`
Create Seekpoint	Add custom marker to video timeline	`POST /api/camera/createCustomFootageSeekpoints`
Get AI Thresholds	Retrieve AI confidence thresholds	`POST /api/camera/getCameraAIThresholds`
Get Hardware Details	Fetch camera hardware specifications	`POST /api/camera/getDetails`

Sensors

Module	Function	API Equivalent

Universal

Module	Function
Make API Call	Execute any Rhombus API endpoint with custom parameters

Note

All modules map to Rhombus REST API endpoints. See API Reference for detailed endpoint documentation.

Authentication

Note

Generate your API key in the Rhombus Console. EU organizations use console.eu.rhombussystems.com — see API Regions.

Warning

Treat API keys as passwords. Each key has full API access with your account permissions.

Common patterns

Employee onboarding

HR System → Make.com → Rhombus
1. Trigger: New employee in HRIS
2. Create/update access group
3. Assign credential
4. Log to audit system

Video stream integration

Schedule → Make.com → Rhombus → Analytics Platform
1. Trigger: Scheduled interval
2. Get camera list
3. Create HTTP streams
4. Send URLs to analytics system

Temporary access

Check-in System → Make.com → Rhombus
1. Trigger: Visitor check-in
2. Add to temporary access group
3. Schedule removal (time-based)
4. Send notification when access expires

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
Auth fails	Verify API key is active at console.rhombussystems.com
Module errors	Check execution history for error details; verify required fields
Rate limits	Add delays between operations if hitting limits. See Rate Limits for current limits.
Data mapping	Use Make.com's data structure viewer; verify field paths

When to use Make vs custom code

Use Make.com When	Write Custom Code When
Standard CRUD operations	Complex business logic required
Connecting existing apps	Building custom UI/UX
No-code team members	Need sub-second latency
Rapid prototyping	Highly customized workflows
Visual workflow preferred	Version control critical
