How this automation works

Automate BotGhost actions using tagged emails sent to IFTTT. This Applet runs whenever you send an email to trigger@applet.ifttt.com that includes a specific hashtag in the subject line. Great for marketers, developers, or support teams who want to trigger BotGhost events directly from their inbox. Customize the message to fit your tone.

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.
Send IFTTT an email at trigger@applet.ifttt.com with a hashtag in the subject (e.g. #IFTTT) and this Trigger fires. You can optionally add a single file attachment (up to 30MB) and IFTTT will create a public URL to the file as an Ingredient.
