How this automation works
Automatically power on your mydlink smart plug when your Arlo camera detects movement. This Applet runs whenever motion is detected by your selected Arlo device, triggering the plug to turn on. Ideal for security, visibility, or safety—great for activating lights or devices in response to motion.
