How this automation works
Automate your smart home by turning on a TP-Link Kasa device and sending yourself an email when your MyQ-connected door is opened. This Applet runs each time the selected MyQ door opens, triggering device power-on and an instant email notification. Perfect for keeping tabs on your garage activity and controlling linked lights or plugs as soon as your door opens. Customize the message to fit your tone.
