How this automation works

Quickly respond to leaks by receiving alerts from your D-Link water sensor. This Applet runs when your D-Link sensor detects water and automatically sends notifications, calls, emails, or messages to keep you informed. Perfect for anyone who wants to monitor potential flooding or water damage in their space. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you want to receive notifications.
