How this automation works
Automate your lighting by turning on a TP-Link Kasa smart bulb whenever a specific Sighthound Video rule detects an event. This Applet runs when your chosen Sighthound Video rule sends an event notification, instantly activating your selected Kasa device. Perfect for improving security or convenience when motion or activity is detected by your camera. Note: Users will select their Sighthound rule and Kasa device when enabling.
