Send Blink motion event data to Adafruit feed
1 ready-made Adafruit and Blink Applets
Turn one on, or build your own. Adafruit can start an automation with "Any new data", and IFTTT can then run "Arm system" on Blink.
Automate Adafruit and Blink from your AI assistant
Ask Cursor to create Adafruit applets that send data to your feeds, right from your AI assistant, with IFTTT MCP.
