10 triggers, queries, and actions
Incident detected
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This trigger fires when Angelcam evaluates that incident that you should be aware of is happening based on data received from your sensors.
History of when an incident was detected
Query
A query lets your Applet retrieve extra data that isn't included in the trigger, so that your automation can include more complete or useful information.
This query returns a list of when an incident was detected by Angelcam.
