[IFTTT](https://ifttt.com) is a web service that allows users to create chains of simple conditional statements, so called "recipes". With the ifttt component you can trigger recipes through the "maker" channel.

To integrate IFTTT into Home Assistant, add the following section to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
ifttt:
  key: xxxxx-x-xxxxxxxxxxxxx
```
