flying by the seat of my pants with this..
Have a recipe to create a file in /public/ifttt/actions/klon called kitchenlightson.txt
IFTTT is tied into Alexa so I say Alexa, trigger kitchen lights on
Alex passes this to IFTTT
IFTTT creates the file in dropbox
I have an event in homeseer called IFTTT Kitchen Lights On
I have the IFTTT Trigger
I have the IFTTT Action looking for the file in KLOn
Then set the device <all my kitchen lights> on
So it runs great, except it runs over and over and over until the file is gone.
Is it normal to have to use options and tell the event Cannot Rerun For and use 30 seconds to allow time for the plugin to delete the file?
Also ---
I learned I have to have 1 folder for On (KLOn) and one folder for Off (KLOff) because if I don't the lights just go on and off even though there is a specifically named file in the Actions folder.
I have HS3 with IFTTT 3.0.0.11
