Flow Control: Converger / Merge
planned
P
Pavel Duras
The Converger module is basically a counterpart of the Router module and it would enable you to merge several routes into one.

It’s happening! As we announced at Waves ’25, we are officially developing a flow control update with two brand new modules: If-Else and Merge.
The If-Else module will let you set up multiple conditional branches and ensure that only one of them will ever run. This, combined with the Merge module, will provide a much cleaner way to handle 'if-else' use cases and give you the ability to merge branches back into a single flow.
Please note, for this particular release, the Merge module is designed to work exclusively with the new If-Else module and will not merge paths from a Router.
Thank you for your patience, and stay tuned!

Thank you. Do you know why I can't access the Facebook group?

Hi OmerMn, please be aware: Make no longer maintains any official Facebook groups, so please be careful when accessing unmanaged external communities. We would love to have you in our official space! You can join the Make Community for verified resources and peer support at https://community.make.com 😊

Valery Mezencev Holy Moly! I've been waiting years for this... so many possibilities. Keep up the awesome work!

"Reverse Router" Module - Flow Control
AI Assistant
Problem Description: Currently, when using a router in Make to split the flow based on specific conditions (for example, different values in a variable), we need to duplicate all subsequent modules in each route, even if these modules are identical for each route. This approach can be inefficient and results in a more complex design that's harder to manage and modify.
Example of the Current Scenario:
Suppose we receive colors as data: red, blue, and green.
We use a router to perform different actions based on the color:
If the color is red ➔ Module 1: Send an email
If the color is green ➔ Module 2: Send an SMS
If the color is blue ➔ Module 3: Send a WhatsApp message
After these specific modules, all routes need to continue with the same modules (for example, C, D, F, G), which are common across all color routes.
Issue: We currently have to duplicate modules C, D, F, and G in each branch of the router, increasing maintenance effort and reducing flow clarity.
Solution Proposal: Introduce a "Reverse Router" module that allows for reconnecting separate routes into a single flow before continuing. This would mean that after using a router to branch into specific modules, the data flow can rejoin into a single line and continue with the same set of shared modules (C, D, F, G) without duplicating them.
Visual Example:
Before (without Reverse Router):
/ ➔ Red Route ➔ Module 1 ➔ C ➔ D ➔ F ➔ G
Router --➔ Green Route ➔ Module 2 ➔ C ➔ D ➔ F ➔ G
\ ➔ Blue Route ➔ Module 3 ➔ C ➔ D ➔ F ➔ G
After (with Reverse Router):
/ ➔ Red Route ➔ Module 1 \
Router --➔ Green Route ➔ Module 2 -- Reverse Router ➔ C ➔ D ➔ F ➔ G
\ ➔ Blue Route ➔ Module 3 /

Converger
Zbyněk Šidlák
Hi, in integromat docs i found module converger: https://www.integromat.com/en/help/converger
But in make i cant find him, can you add this module to make?
Tom Duffy
I love make.com as a platform i think its great, but 2 and a half years down the line of this request and nothings been done....
But they decided to roll out a "snow mode" which may look a little cool but is completely useless.
Time to step up the game a bit, with the advancements of AI, a lot of new competitors will rise to the challenge of satisfying their users needs.
HOL Management Services Ltd
Tom Duffy Totally agree, the fact that Make.com are STILL missing such key functionality is an absolute bloody farce. There are thousands of people that want this functionality, and it avoids that ridiculous "magic router formula" hack that has been published and seems to have become thje defacto work around to handle the poorly designed functionality of branches in Make.
Douglas Moura
That's the second most asked feature and Make simply doesn't care, showing how much they care about their users.
Simon Meggle
As a Python developer, I must say that I am very surprised at the lack of such a converter. When programming, it is the most normal thing in the world to call from function A various functions B1, B2, B3 etc. , which in turn can then call a common function C again.
Without the possibility of merging the flow of the programme in this way, you are condemned to branch out the scenario further and further.
Thomas
There was a time when the only credibly players were Integromat and Zapier but AI is spawning a host of competitors who offer this feature out of the gate. I sincerely hope Make re-assesses this decision now that it's been 24 months since it was first posted.
Tal Spirer
Still cannot believe that Make.com has not yet released something like this, more concerning that it is not even seen as a beyond-high-priority feature that has been long missing and needed!
Tomasz Machura
Honnestly, I am so disapointed. I was looking at Make to automate some processes in my company. I like the UX, the whole experience has just been great.
All our processes are written in BPMN and we use gateways extensively.
For me that was a no brainer that a merge would be available after branching. I was feeling stupid that I couldn't make it work. So I was designing and looking for the module, trying to link branches to a module etc...
How surprised was I to read on multiple forums and tutorials that Make does not have such a vital and basic function as branch merging. Wow - This is such a punch in the face :/

Tomasz Machura the more I work through advanced things on Make the more disappointed I become. Its shocking.
