| − | ===Building your first custom IFTTT Applet===
| |
| − | If you've never used IFTTT before, let start by building a simple IFTTT Applet that turns on a light when we flip a virtual switch in Hubitat Elevation™. An IFTTT Applet is a simple automaton flow that says, "IF This" thing, a trigger of some kind happens, then "That" Action should occur. In this simple example, we are going to control a cloud connected WiFi outlet made by iDevices, by turning on a virtual switch on our Hubitat Elevation™
