If a webhook is triggered, get a mobile notification
How this automation works
Automate smart home integrations by sending a web request whenever your Blue by ADT security system changes its arm state. This Applet runs when the system arms or disarms, triggering a Webhooks request to your specified endpoint. Perfect for advanced users connecting Blue by ADT to custom automations or third-party systems. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
