@Sean So i followed all the steps and looked at the conversation you had with smackenzie, but i still cant get my monitor to turn off, here my
config.js

    {
    			module: 'MMM-OnScreenMenu',
    			position: 'bottom_right',
		},
    {
    module: "MMM-NotificationTrigger",
    config: {
      useWebhook: true,
      triggers: [
        {
          trigger: "MONITOR_OFF_FROM_IFTTT",
          fires: [
            {
              fire: "ONSCREENMENU_PROCESS_ACTION",
              payload: {"actionName": "monitorOff"}
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
    },

IFTTT request

{ "notification": "MONITOR_OFF_FROM_IFTTT", "payload": null }

and here the log when i say Magic (the keyword)

reqpost? { notification: 'MONITOR_OFF_FROM_IFTTT', payload: null }

@sgarg15 if you open the developers window console, you should see the notifications being sent

sgarg15

@sdetweil the notification is being but it isnt doing anything to the monitor

sdetweil

@sgarg15 so, the onscreen module should be configured to receive and process this, right?
ONSCREENMENU_PROCESS_ACTION

sdetweil

@sdetweil these control modules are just so complex to setup.

@sdetweil Idk some people got this too work, and i have been looking for something like this for a long time,
@Sean When you get time please do have a look

Thanks and sorry for multiple pings

sgarg15

Any ideas anyone?

sgarg15

its not the this module its MMM-OnScreenMenu, because when i click the turn the monitor off button on the menu, nothing happens

Any ideas how to fix this ?

sgarg15

Ok so i got it to work with MMM-Remote-Control, So now i am wondering how can you have multiple commands, like send multiple notifications to for ex. turn on and off the monitor? Any ideas? @Sean

Hi, Thanks for the guide. I got it working as IFTTT actually sends a webrequest to my mirror. I am having trouble with the syntax of NotificationTrigger. I already use that module to turn on my Mirror if my gate button is pushed and display an alert.

I would like to execute a script when the trigger OPEN_GATE is received. Here is my current config:

{
module: "MMM-NotificationTrigger",
      config: {
          triggers:[
          {
            trigger: "PLAY_SOUND",
            fires: [
              {
                fire:"USER_PRESENCE",
                payload: function(payload) {
                  return false

                }
              },

              {
                fire:"SHOW_ALERT",
                payload: function(payload) {
                  return {
                    type: "notification",
                    title: "Porten",
                    message: "Der er nogen ved porten!"
                    }
                },
              }
            ],
          },

        ]
      }
},

Can anyone help with the syntax to add a trigger for “OPEN_GATE” notification that fires a script?
