IFTTT Pro Multiple "Start recording" Actions

ArloDan — Thu, 24 Sep 2020 19:25:14 GMT

I just converted my free IFTTT account to the new Pro subscription that allows you to create multiple actions ("that's"). I was hoping that would allow me to record from multiple cameras from a single trigger. (In my case, when my home alarm is triggered). Currently I have to create a separate applet for each camera. However, once I create a 2nd action and choose Arlo, "Start recording" is no longer an option. Is this a limitation on the IFTTT or Arlo side?

HI @ArloDan

Please contact the IFTTT support team to further investigate this issue.

IFTTT says: "Currently, it's not possible to use the same action multiple times in a single Applet. We have plans to address this in the future, so stay tuned."

I confirmed that with other services besides Arlo. Very disappointing. That seems like a very common use case that they should have addressed from the get go.
