IFTTT

<hr class="divider">
<p><a href="https://ifttt.com">IFTTT</a> is a web service that allows users to create chains of simple conditional statements, so called “recipes”. With the IFTTT component you can trigger recipes through the “maker” channel. See the <a href="/blog/2015/09/13/home-assistant-meets-ifttt/">announcement blog post</a> for examples how to use it.</p>
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="s">ifttt</span><span class="pi">:</span>
<span class="s">key</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">xxxxx-x-xxxxxxxxxxxxx</span>
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Key is your API key which can be obtained by viewing the properties of the <a href="https://ifttt.com/maker">Maker Channel</a>.</p>
<p class="img">
<img src="/images/components/ifttt/finding_key.png" />
Property screen of the Maker Channel
</p>
<p>Once you have added your key to <code class="highlighter-rouge">configuration.yaml</code>, restart your Home Assistant server. This will load up the IFTTT component and make a service available to trigger events in IFTTT.</p>
<p class="note">
After restarting the server, be sure to watch the console for any logging errors that show up in red, white or yellow.
</p>
<h3><a class="title-link" name="testing-your-trigger" href="#testing-your-trigger"></a> Testing your trigger</h3>
<p>You can use the developer tools to test your <a href="https://ifttt.com/maker">Maker Channel</a> trigger. To do this, open the Home Assistant UI, open the sidebar, click on the first icon in the developer tools. This should get you to the Call Service screen. Fill in the following values:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Field</th>
<th>Value</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>domain</td>
<td><code class="highlighter-rouge">ifttt</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>service</td>
<td><code class="highlighter-rouge">trigger</code></td>

<p class="img">
<img src="/images/components/ifttt/setup_trigger.png" />
You need to setup a unique trigger for each event you sent to IFTTT.
</p>
<h3><a class="title-link" name="sending-events-from-ifttt-to-home-assistant" href="#sending-events-from-ifttt-to-home-assistant"></a> Sending events from IFTTT to Home Assistant</h3>
<p>To be able to receive events from IFTTT, your Home Assistant instance needs to be accessible from the web. This can be achieved by forwarding port 8123 from your router to the device running Home Assistant. If your ISP is giving you a new IP address from time to time, consider using <a href="https://duckdns.org">DuckDNS</a>.</p>
