Make Core trigger IFTTT command through Webhooks


#1

1) Give a description of the problem
I’m trying to create a piston that triggers an IFTTT through Webhooks, for the sake of testing, I’m just using virtual presence device to trigger (coffee machine to turn on or off)
I did copy the webhooks URL into Core integrations tab
I created this applet (named siemens off), run the piston like below but it doesn’t do anything. btw the coffee machine responds to google home commands through IFTTT
Any help is appreciated


2) What is the expected behavior?
coffee machine to to turn on/off

3) What is happening/not happening?
nothing

**4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston![image|45x37]

5) Attach any logs (From ST IDE and by turning logging level to Full)

I think I know why it’s not working, silly but I believe that’s why
name of the maker event can’t have space, has to be one word, not sure if it’s webhooks vs IFTTT limitation, don’t think it’s core limitation right?


#3

Weblinks should never have a space. (HTML Standards)

While technically, it can be %20 but then you have to worry about translation. It’s much better to simply avoid using spaces with all web addresses.

makes sense, it’s just weird a lot of tutorials and none has this info

I guess it is so ingrained in us geeks for over 20 years, it is rarely talked about any more.

It is such second nature for me at this point, that whenever I make a file or folder in Windows, I never use a space either, LOL
