How this automation works
Generate an image from a Placid template and receive it as a rich Notifications alert. The Applet runs when you press the Button widget: it asks Placid to render the template using any layer overrides or output options you provide at install, then sends a Notifications rich notification with the generated image and a link. Useful for instantly previewing social cards, event badges, or quick approvals on your device with Placid and Notifications.

Create your own workflow
Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.
5 triggers, queries, and actions
Button press
Realtime trigger
Realtime Applets run after the trigger service notifies IFTTT of a new trigger event. Since IFTTT is notified proactively of new trigger events, realtime Applets normally run within a few seconds of a trigger event occurring.
This trigger fires every time you press the button.
Generate image from template
Query
A query lets your Applet retrieve extra data that isn't included in the trigger, so that your automation can include more complete or useful information.
This query renders one of your Placid templates with optional layer overrides and returns a URL to the generated image.
