How IFTTT works

These are the building blocks of any IFTTT automation.

• Services: tools you can connect with each other. Each service has a particular set of triggers and actions.

• Triggers: are items that trigger an action, like a video published by a user on YouTube.

• Actions: are the result of the trigger. For example, an action could be importing a task in Akiflow.

• Applets: are a chain of triggers and actions that create automations between services.
