How to activate a Smartthings scene from ifttt

SmartApps & Automations Automation Ideas

Hi everyone.

I just wanted to know how i can activate a scene from ifttt.
I tried but in ifttt i just have turn on/off actions.
I installed thermostat and created scenes to set temperature.
I wanted to activate this from ifttt when a calendar event start/stop.

Thanks for your help.

You have to put the scene into an automation, and have the automation triggered by a simulated switch, and have Ifttt turn the switch on. See the following community FAQ:

Hi.
Thank you very much for your response.
I did have troubble to add a virtual switch in the IDE on my phone but finaly i did manage to do it on my computer.
After that, IFTTT didnt xant to finf my switch.
I had to relink my IFTTT and Smartthings account for new autorisations.

Now it works !!

Thanks a lot !!
