Automate Blink and PowerView® Automation (Legacy) from your AI assistant
Have Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor build and run Blink and PowerView® Automation (Legacy) automations for you, like “Log Blink motion alerts to Google Sheets”, with IFTTT MCP.
Set up IFTTT MCP
Create your own Blink and PowerView® Automation (Legacy) 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.
8 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
