How do you make a trigg?

This post is also available in: Nederlands (Dutch)

You can get started right away with the inspiration triggs, but of course you can make your own triggs just as easily. A trigg is a combination of conditions and actions that do something in and around your house. Super simple!

Choose “Create a new trigg”

Every trigg starts on the ‘My triggs’ screen where you can make a new trigg. Triggs consist of conditions and actions and need channels. A channel is a connected device, a service or an online service. Once you have created these channels, you can use them in multiple triggs.

Make a condition

Then choose “Add condition”. This sets the conditions for when the trigg should activate. Date, time, location, weather conditions, temperature in the house or a combination of the endless possibilities.

Choose your channel

Every trigg needs channels. You connect these channels once, usually
through a login procedure. Some channels, such as weather and location, can be added instantly. Choose the channel you want to use as a condition.

Define the action

Have your lights flash, change the program for your thermostat, save something on Google Drive, or send notifications to a phone. You can do all kinds of things with the actions. Choose another channel and then the desired action.

Save the trigg

We automatically give your trigg a name, which you can of course change to your own title. Save the trigg and it is active immediately. If something is missing, you will get a notification on your screen automatically.

Ready!

There isn’t really a step 6. That’s it. It’s that simple to make a
trigg. If the conditions in your trigg are all true, we will run it. For each trigg, you get an overview of when the trigg is run in the detail screen.
