Set up IFTTT MCPCreate your own Elektrum and LightwaveRF Events 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.
4 triggers, queries, and actions
Current price exceeds threshold
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 fires when current electricity price exceeds threshold
The price of electricity changes
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 fires hourly when electricity price changes
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.
Day-ahead prices represent the result of Nord Pool’s day-ahead implicit auction market.
Peak = 09:00 to 20:00
Off peak 1 = 01:00 to 08:00
Off peak 2 = 21:00 to 24:00
Average = arithmetic average

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 start an event.
