Send Wistia video stats to Notifications on QR scan

Connect

How this automation works

Get Wistia video play count and average engagement delivered to Notifications. When the Camera widget scans a QR code matching the regular expression you set, the applet queries Wistia for stats for the video ID you provide and sends them as a notification. Ideal for marketers or presenters who scan Wistia video QR codes and want instant engagement metrics via Notifications. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you want to receive notifications.
