How this automation works

Automate your smart home responses with a single Webhook event. When a Webhook request is received, this Applet calls your phone, activates a YoLink scene, toggles your Govee and Philips Hue lights, and sends another Webhook request. Ideal for home security alerts and automation routines that combine voice notifications with immediate lighting actions. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
