VidContext + Make

Connect VidContext to Make (formerly Integromat) to build visual automation scenarios that analyze video content. Extract transcripts, detect brands, score ad effectiveness, and route results to any app in your stack — all without writing code.

How it works

1. 1

   Add an HTTP module

   In your Make scenario, add the HTTP 'Make a request' module. Set the method to POST and the URL to https://api.vidcontext.com/v1/analyze.

2. 2

   Set up authentication

   In the Headers section, add a custom header with the name X-API-Key and your VidContext API key as the value.

3. 3

   Configure the request body

   Set body type to Multipart/form-data. Add a file field mapped to your video binary data, and an output_format field set to your chosen analysis mode.

4. 4

   Parse and route the response

   VidContext returns structured JSON. Use Make's JSON parser or map fields directly to downstream modules — Google Sheets, Slack, email, CRM, or any connected app.

HTTP module configuration

Reference configuration for the Make HTTP module. Set your timeout to 300 seconds in advanced settings to handle longer videos.

Scenario ideas

What VidContext returns

Every response is structured JSON that Make can parse and route to any downstream module without custom code.

• Metadata — duration, resolution, format
• Transcript — timestamped speech with speaker context
• Visual scenes — descriptions of what appears on screen with timestamps
• On-screen text — titles, captions, URLs, overlays extracted
• Brands detected — logos and product mentions identified
• Audio analysis — music, sound effects, and ambient audio classified
