A Web of Things-Specific IFTTT Applet: Integration of a Trigger Service with Action Services

An If This Then That (IFTTT) applet was used to illustrate the process followed here. This work connects two separate application services. In this case, these two apps were selected to pilot a new Internet of Things-based infrastructure. There was the “Trigger” service, which was the ubiquitous “Google Assistant,” and the “Action” service, which was the “AdafruitIO” Message Query Telemetry Transport (MQTT) broker. Both the active state of a multi-sensor network and a relay may be monitored remotely using an MQTT broker service, and numerous electrical appliances could be controlled remotely using a Virtual Personal Assistant (VPA). The second goal was to facilitate communication between the two services by integrating and connecting them using an “If This Then That” Applet. The AdafruitIO dashboard allowed the sensor readings and relay status to be monitored remotely from a computer or mobile device.
