Has the new app broken IFTT integrations?  I have been running an Applet that would send a 60 sec record command to one of my Arlo Pro cameras.  Since updating the app to the new 4.1 version, the IFTT record command is no longer working.

Hi @BrookeN ,

 

Thank you for looking into this. I am also having the same problem as @kh2000  - We need the ability to have IFTTT trigger the Arlo mode we need activated. Currently, I am unable to trigger the "Arm Home" mode. Would appreciate anything you can do to help get this resolved.

Can you please check to see if this behavior is still happening.

He recordings on my Arlo Essential cameras will still not trigger.

 

I am, however, able to change modes using IFTTT.

How do I share the IFTTT applet with you?

Any update? I agree that the integration is thoroughly broken as it stands

The IFTT command for recording is now working.


The builtin automation in the app to auto-record at a certain day and time is not longer working!

Is Arlo ever going to support the integration with IFTTT that would allow IFTTT to trigger a mode change to Arm Home. It seems that IFTTT has to Arlo settings, Arm, and Disarm. The Arm command triggers a change to Arm Away in the Arlo App. 

 

Even better, is Arlo ever going to go back to letting users (and services like IFTTT) to change modes right down to the device level like it used to. 

 

I use IFTTT combined with Apilio (which provides the logic layer to IFTTT) and up until recently have had a very effective automated monitoring set-up. Now it is completely broken, and completely useless. At least supporting Arm Away vs Arm Home would help a bit, but still falls way short of where this product used to be.
