Title: IFTTT
Post by: jack2u on January 16, 2020, 08:02:20 pm

Can anyone tell me how to incorporate IFTTT into my Routine actions? I noticed that IFTTT was an option under a routine I had viewed on youtube. I would like to be able to have a unique text number group trigger a voice action on alexa.

As far as I know, IFTTT is only available as an action in routines not a trigger (at least I can't see an option for this in the app).
This means that a routine can trigger one of your IFTTT applets but you can't have an IFTTT applet trigger a routine, which sounds like what you want to do.
