How this automation works
Automatically create a MeisterTask task by simply sending an email to your IFTTT trigger address. This Applet runs whenever an email is sent to trigger@applet.ifttt.com and turns it into a new task in your chosen MeisterTask section. It's great for quickly capturing ideas or tasks directly from your inbox. Customize the message to fit your tone.
