Create your own WIFIPLUG and Space 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.

History of switched turned on
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 returns a list of when your WIFIPLUG was turned on.
Blink
Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
This Action will flicker a WIFIPLUG. i.e. turn off and back on (if on) or turn on and back off (if off).
Turn off
Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
This Action will turn a WIFIPLUG off. If the WIFIPLUG is already off, it will remain off.
