This exactly. I understand why they haven't done it, but the number of things I'd love to build as a hobbyist if only I could get a REST endpoint to trigger or enter a webhook URL to receive actions...
- kevinebaugh 12y agoWe're building a way for others to build and take ownership of their Channels: https://ifttt.com/platform https://ifttt.com/platform Hobby or personal Channels are an interesting idea!
- eli 12y agoA generic REST Endpoint action and a generic Webhook trigger would pretty much do it, but I can imagine why you wouldn't want to offer that.
- gdilla 12y agoWould pubnub or dweet.io work for you?
- zrgiu_ 12y agoNo, they're not really. We're building Smart IR Remote (universal remote android app) and AnyMote (hardware, now on kickstarter), and we applied on IFTTT's link over a month ago, without any reply. Didn't even get back to us.
- Bug_Labs 12y agohttp://dweet.io http://dweet.io can give you a rest endpoint. It is very easy and open source
- ChuckMcM 12y agoThis, dweet is a nice solution here.
- lazerwalker 12y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but Dweet doesn't really solve the use case of "I want to connect my hobby app with existing third-party APIs without having to do manual integrations". It's great for home IoT setups, sure, but that's not the main use case I care about.
