Automate Phone Call (US only) and PMMI Lighting from your AI assistant
Ask ChatGPT to create Phone Call applets with IFTTT MCP and get calls to your phone when something happens.
Set up IFTTT MCP
Create your own Phone Call (US only) and PMMI Lighting 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.
8 triggers, queries, and actions

Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every hour on Free, every 15 minutes on Starter, and every 5 minutes on Pro and Pro+.
This Trigger fires every time you leave any voicemail at your IFTTT phone number.
