A Word Document that contains:
A screen shot of the successful account creation
A screen shot of the configured Applet
A detailed description of the Applet; what Services, Triggers and Actions are used and why you choose this Applet.
Step-1: I Created a account in IFTTT with my eamil ID and Password
Step-2 : I Choosen a Applet called Weather UnderGround which is used to forecast the whether at any given day/time to any device or application.
Step-3: Once Applet is choosen, then choose the trigger. Trigger is one of the events at which we want to see the weather status with attributes like Date and Time.
Step-4: Then Choose the action Service, it means, into what service the above trigger should be incorporated. Like social media twitter, SMS, drop box and facebook etc. I Choose Facebook as Action Service
Step-5: Then the Trigger Event will be applied on the particular service into which we have choosen.
Hence the trigger Weather Underground will generate a timeline status message everyday at 2:15PM about the weather condition.
