I have the Arlo system with 2 cameras and had been using IFTTT recipes successfully up until approx 2 weeks ago. They now only work as a trigger to disarm/arm the arlo base station,
They wont work if the trigger is for example:
'arlo motion'- IFTTT trigger - record video on my homeboy device OR turn on WEMO plug OR send text applets, none work anymore.
IFTTT receipes work the other way round though, for example
'homeboy disarmed/armed' - IFTTT trigger - Disarm /arm arlo base station
'Sunset' - IFTTT trigger - arm arlo
The above tells me that the Arlo service is talking to IFTTT but for some unknown reason the applets that are 'triggered' by an arlo event just stopped working after approx 18 months of working fine.
I have disconnected the Arlo service and reconnected on IFTTT, deleted all Arlo receipes/applets and started again. Reset the base station and still no joy. Event log in IFTTT lists failed events stating 'problem with the arlo service'
Is any one using IFTTT successfully to trigger something else on an Arlo event, eg arlo motion triggers something else to happen on another device?
I have a support case open with Arlo but would like to know if its just me or others are having this issue too.

Arlo support have replied (the 5th reply) and confirmed that there is in fact an issue with Arlo and IFTTT applets and it is being looked at. I have since found that IFTTT have an incident report dating back to the 28th September reporting an issue with Arlo apps and it is under investigation, no further updates.
Not happy as I use IFTTT triggers to turn on lights on arlo motion, yes there are workarounds but they arent as quick. Fro example email IFTTT triggers can take 15 minutes, the arlo to wemo IFTTT trigger is almost instant........or was until they broke it.

Me too. It has never worked for me. Motion (or audio) trigger to IFTTT fails always.
I've had the system for about 6 weeks (since ~Oct, '17).
I've have a support case in for about a month - haven't heard anything from them.
PLEASE FIX THIS!!

My IFTTT works intermittent it could be slow servers. If Netgear can put the popular IFTTT applets native in next Arlo camera application update instead of using a third party service that would be great.

They removed mention of IFTTT from the Arlo Pro information page, but not the Arlo Pro 2 page, (the new upgrade camera). That page says “plays well with others, IFTTT and Stringify”. Hmm, do you suppose they dropped support for the Arlo Pro just to add another differentiator to the new camera? This really pisses me off. I bought my Arlo Pro kit just 2 months ago with the clear understanding that it would work with IFTTT.

I am trying to creat an applet to use OK google, Arm Arlo, then Arlo to arm.
So I tell IFTTT what to do with Google assistant,(OK Google, Arm Arlo) no problem, but when it comes time to tell arlo to arm, it gets stuck at this screen, asking which device and it's stuck loading, I cannot get any further. I've tried with both the app on my phone and using laptop with chrome and edge browser, and it does the same thing. Is anyone else able to make this applet? It's a pretty simple applet, and I admit I am pretty new to both arlo and IFTTT.

It is working for me now. I have tested it with motion detected --> send me a text, and motion detected --> turn on a WeMo switch. Both work now, for me. Thank you Netgear for fixing the issue. Disappointing however that such a reputable company with an otherwise great product should take 3 months to fix an issue like this. Also - Netgear - please note that there are some folks here who are saying it still doesn't work for them. Please help them.

It seems that there could be an issue with a specific recipe, have you tried others? Do all recipes still not work for you?

I've tested this and many other users have confirmed recipes are now working. Try relinking your Arlo account to IFTTT and set up recipes again. Please let me know if you have any success.
