Overview of IFTTT#

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.

Connect IFTTT#

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}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Amazon SES#

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is a powerful cloud-based email sending service designed to help digital marketers and application developers send marketing, notification, and transactional emails. With the SES API, you can reliably send emails at scale, manage sender reputations, view email sending statistics, and maintain a high deliverability rate. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can integrate SES seamlessly into serverless workflows, automate email responses based on triggers from other apps, and analyze the effectiveness of your email campaigns by connecting to data analytics platforms.
