IFTTT
We built the IFTTT modules to give you even more flexibility with your automations by letting you exchange data between a Make on Make and an applet on IFTTT.
Currently, the following modules are available:
Trigger: Receive data from an applet
Action: Send data to an applet
The above modules also allow you to connect and control arbitrary IoT devices connected to IFTTT.

Using the Receive data module, you can get data from an arbitrary trigger in the IFTTT applet. Follow the steps below to achieve this:
- Create a new applet on IFTTT or go to an existing one that contains the trigger from which you'd like to send data to Make
- Create a new Make on Make using IFTTT - Receive data as the first module
Go to IFTTT and in the settings of the Webhook - Make a web request action fill in the following values:
Example JSON:
The JSON can contain an arbitrary amount of values. Value1Label is a label how the value will be presented in Make. {{Value1}} is an ingredient from the IFTTT trigger.
- Turn your IFTTT applet on and run it once. This will send sample data to the Make webhook which had been listening for data
- Once the webhook receives the sample data, click 'OK' to continue and use the data received from IFTTT in subsequent modules of your Make Make.
Complete your Make in Make and turn it on.
Follow the steps below to send data from Make to a trigger in an IFTTT applet and run any IFTTT action using the Send data module:
Create a new applet on the IFTTT Platform (https://platform.ifttt.com/)
Go to Make and insert the module IFTTT - Send data to your Make that shall send data to IFTTT
Once your Make setup on Make is complete, make sure you save it and turn it on to begin sending data to your newly created IFTTT applet. Now you can use this data in subsequent actions in your applet to achieve the intended integration.
