IFTTT Maker Webhook Plugin V1.1

Overview

Description:

This repo contains a Q-SYS Plugin for interacting with IFTTT's Maker Webhook Integration. The goal is to allow for simple tirggering of third party devices that are already integrated into IFTTT from within the Q-SYS control ecosystem. This can be useful for devices that may not have a published API or to trigger interesting automations not typical to AV control systems.

In this initial release, V1.1 of this plugin only supports the "Receive a web request" webhook trigger and does not support aribitrary JSON payloads
