IFTTT (If This Then That) is a service that lets you create chains of conditional statements, known as applets. These applets can automate tasks across a variety of web services and APIs. By integrating IFTTT with Pipedream, you unlock the ability to handle complex logic, manage state, transform data, and interact with over 600+ supported apps in Pipedream’s ecosystem. You can trigger workflows on Pipedream with events from IFTTT and vice versa, creating a seamless automation experience.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
ifttt: {
type: "app",
app: "ifttt",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://connect.ifttt.com//v2/me`,
headers: {
"IFTTT-Service-Key": `${this.ifttt.$auth.ifttt_Service_Key}`,
},
})
},
})
Smart Home Alerts to Slack: Trigger a Pipedream workflow when your smart home device (connected via IFTTT) detects motion. The workflow processes the event and sends a formatted alert message to a Slack channel, keeping your team informed of security at your premises.
Social Media Performance Tracking: When a new post is made on your Instagram account (through IFTTT), trigger a workflow on Pipedream to retrieve the post’s performance data like likes and comments after 24 hours. Then, log this data in a Google Sheets spreadsheet for analysis and reporting.
Email Digest of Daily Activities: Use IFTTT to monitor your fitness app for daily activity summaries. Once it detects a summary, it triggers a Pipedream workflow which aggregates the data and sends you an email digest using the SendGrid app on Pipedream at the end of the day.
IFTTT uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your IFTTT account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to IFTTT APIs in both code and no-code steps.
