New event from a camera

Realtime trigger
Realtime Applets run after the trigger service notifies IFTTT of a new trigger event. Since IFTTT is notified proactively of new trigger events, realtime Applets normally run within a few seconds of a trigger event occurring.
This Trigger fires every time a rule on a Sighthound Video camera you specify sends an event. You must first configure rules in Sighthound Video to “Send an IFTTT event”.
