IFTTT gives you creative control over popular applications, devices, and services that you use and love. With the Abode channel, you can interact and control other channels on IFTTT to seamlessly integrate Abode device statuses, alarm modes, and much more to other connected channels.


IFTTT operates by connecting channels together with custom recipes that you define. Once you have an IFTTT account and an Abode account, you can authorize the Abode IFTTT channel to perform certain actions based on events that occur in your home. For example, if an alarm activates, you can instruct IFTTT to post to Facebook, send you a notification, or turn on your Hue Lightbulbs. It's totally up to you and can be setup with an easy point and click interface.


Setup Guide

What You Need to Get Started

  • An active Abode account connected to an Abode hub (Iota or Security Hub)

  • An IFTTT account

  • Successfully link your account at IFTTT to grant access to both Abode and IFTTT
