Example: Use Make to enrich inbound leads with Captain Data

You can also refer to this Guideflow to learn how to configure the ‘Launch a Workflow’ module for Captain Data in Make.

While the guide focuses solely on setting up the module, keep in mind that you’ll need a data source in place beforehand. This could be your CRM (e.g., HubSpot), a spreadsheet (e.g., Google Sheets), Notion, or any database.

Available Modules

  • Get Job Info
  • Launch Workflow
  • Make an API Call
  • List Application Accounts
  • List Job Results

Captain Data doesn’t directly support triggering a workflow when a new row is added to your spreadsheet. To achieve this, you’ll need to: Use Make’s Google Sheet Module (Watch New Rows).

Google Sheets Setup

Blueprint: Trigger a Captain Data Workflow from Slack

Launch a workflow from Slack by sending, for example, a LinkedIn company URL and job titles, triggering the “Find Leads from Company Profile with Sales Navigator” workflow to fetch and return leads.

Follow this process:

  1. Watch for Messages: Select a Slack channel (public or private).
  2. Extract Info: Split the message into LinkedIn URL & Job Titles.
  3. Send to Captain Data: Auto-fill workflow inputs.
  4. Set Filters & Run: Ensure a LinkedIn URL, select accounts, and choose on-demand or scheduled runs.
  5. Test It! Click “Run Once” & send a Slack message.
