How this automation works

Automatically track when you get into bed with Withings Sleep and store it for future reference. This Applet runs each time your Withings Sleep sensor detects you getting into bed during your chosen time window, sending a Webhook call and logging the event to Dropbox. Ideal for users who want to automate sleep tracking and data logging across Webhooks and Dropbox. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
