The IFTTT Agent adapts the popular web automation service IFTTT (If This Then That), allowing you to freely connect your QNAP NAS with apps like Gmail™, Facebook®, and Twitter to automate daily tasks on the QNAP NAS, giving you the ability to create near-limitless user-defined rules/tasks and to boost your productivity.
What is IFTTT?
IFTTT allows you to link various internet-connected devices/services together to create simple but powerful cross-app workflows. For example: if something happens in Gmail™, then do something in Facebook®. These workflows are called applets by IFTTT. Each web service registered with IFTTT has a predefined set of triggers and actions. An applet can be created by combining the trigger of one service (like Gmail™) with the action of another service (like Facebook®).
Design your own NAS applets
Using IFTTT Agent, you can connect your IFTTT account and NAS to create a near-unlimited number of NAS-related applets on the IFTTT website. Over 300 popular services are supported by the IFTTT website, including Facebook®, Gmail™, Twitter®, Skype™, Instagram®, Dropbox®, Google Drive™, Microsoft® One Drive®, and Box®. You can create numerous useful applets with your favorite services, such as "when you upload photos on Facebook, download it to the NAS" or "when there is a new file uploaded in Dropbox®, back it up to the NAS" then QNAP NAS will archive all your social networking and cloud data without any effort.
Unlimited combinations, ultimate wonders
IFTTT Agent also allows you to combine other devices to create new NAS applets, providing a new way for more innovative and intelligent tasks on your NAS. You can use voice commands on your NAS by connecting it to Alexa to make your NAS shut down, reboot or enter sleep mode.
