Automate your SkylinkNet integrations

SkylinkNet transforms your home into a smart and secure environment by enabling you to monitor alarms and automate devices. With IFTTT, you can create personalized automations that respond to hub and sensor events, enhancing your home security and convenience.

Create your own SkylinkNet 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.
