How this automation works

Automate your outdoor lighting and get instant alerts when motion is detected. This runs whenever your Blink camera senses motion and triggers your connected TP-Link Kasa devices to turn on while placing a call to your phone. Ideal for improving home security and awareness during night hours. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you want to receive notifications.
