Blink to GroupMe integrations Automate your workflows between Discord and Instagram with IFTTT.

USE CASE

Location-based alerts

Integrate Blink with Location services to trigger notifications when motion is detected while your system is armed, offering peace of mind whether you're at home or away.

Get started

Create your own Blink and GroupMe workflow

Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.

5 triggers, queries, and actions

Motion 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 your Blink camera detects motion. Please note: Only the events stored in the Blink cloud are supported by the Blink.

History of motion 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 your Blink camera detects motion.

Arm system

Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
This Action will set your Blink system to Armed.

Disarm system

Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
