Agile Octopus to Rachio Irrigation Controller integrations

Automate your workflows between Agile Octopus and Rachio Irrigation Controller with IFTTT.

Create your own Agile Octopus and Rachio Irrigation Controller 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.

24 triggers, queries, and actions

Carbon Intensity Change

Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This trigger activates when the carbon intensity changes based on user-defined conditions, such as intensity thresholds and specific time ranges. It uses live and forecasted carbon intensity data to evaluate and validate actions.
