# How does integration with Make work?

> Connect ShortPen with Make to automate link creation, API calls, and workflows across your favorite apps.

**Short answer**: Use Make to automate ShortPen tasks without code. You can create links on the fly inside any Make “scenario,” or call any ShortPen API endpoint through a generic action.

<Info>
  Go to the [Make Shortpen Integration Page](https://www.make.com/en/integrations/shortpen)

## What you can do

* **Create a Link:** adds a new ShortPen link (with optional QR) in your chosen workspace.
* **Make an** [API](/key-concepts/api-overview) **Call** : performs any authorized ShortPen API request for advanced cases.

## The quickest setup

1. In Make, **create a scenario** and click **+** to add a module.
2. Search **ShortPen** → choose **Create a Link**.
3. **Add a connection** → paste your ShortPen [API key](/key-concepts/api-overview).
4. **Map the fields** shown by Make (destination, domain, slug, title, etc).
5. **Run once** to test → confirm the new link appears in ShortPen. Then connect other apps (e.g., Sheets, Forms) as triggers or next steps.
