The problem is that your text file starts with the text
Code: [Select]
message:
Voxcommando does not understand that because it is not a valid action.

If IFTTT forces you to include message: in the text file then you will need to configure the watcher plugin to use events instead.

Either you are doing something wrong when you send the email (I don't know how you are currently sending it) or there is a problem with the way you have set up IFTTT.

According to our tests, it should be possible to configure IFTTT so that the text "message:" is not added to the file.

It is up to you to discover why the text is being added.

If you are not able to get rid of this text, then just use an event instead.  Change the radio button in Watcher settings to generate an event and then assign that event to a command that does the TTS (and anything else you want to do when motion is detected).

Honestly, I don't know why you don't just use Watcher plugin to monitor a folder that your camera saves video files to.  It would be much easier and would work even if your internet is not working.

Hi,

I'm not sure what you are saying here, but I can confirm that IFTTT works with Dropbox & the Watcher plugin. I tested it a couple hours ago, and also yesterday.
TIPS: POST VC VERSION #. Explain what you want VC to do. Say what you've tried & what happened, or post a video demo. Attach VC log. Link to instructions followed.  Post your command (xml)
