[GGexe (Eddy)]

Hello,

I want to achieve the following with ifttt:

if “GOOGLE ASSISTANT PHRASE” then trigger a CORE piston with the maker channel?

Is that even possible, im kinda lost and would like if possible to have a step by step explanation on how to do this

Anyone ever made this work?
I have:

• connected core to ifttt already
• piston created
• connected to the maker channel on ifttt

Just for info, the [ ] are not required. The event name can be any text, with or without the brackets. Nothing special about those brackets
