To find it, login to IFTTT or sign up for a new account, Click ‘Explore and type in ‘Webhooks’ in the search box, then click on Webhooks once it's found. Then click Connect if prompted. Next, click on 'Documentation'. This will open a new page that shows your IFTTT key. Copy and paste this key to your device's configuration on myspool.
4. In IFTTT begin creating your applet.  Find Webhook for Service in IF section and choose Select a Web Request for Trigger. Enter Event name that corresponds to your device (see My Devices on myspool.com).
