actualNoteContentPart: # How to set up an IFTTT integration
  In IFTTT, an automation is called an "Applet". You can create an Applet from scratch or choose from [one of the Applets that the community published so far](https://ifttt.com/amplenote) .
  To create an Applet from scratch, navigate to [https://ifttt.com/create](https://ifttt.com/create) . First, choose a trigger,  or a "If This" step:
  
  
  
  
  
  Then, choose the app that you would like to connect Amplenote to. In this example, we will use Google Drive.
  
  
  "New file in your folder" will make our Applet trigger whenever a new file is created in a particular folder in your Google Drive. 
  
  Triggers usually require some configuration. In this case, we need to log in with our Google Drive account and give IFTTT the necessary permissions. Then, we need to specify the name of the folder that we want to monitor using this Applet.
  
  
  
  
  
  For different apps and triggers, the list of possible configurations will be different.
  
  The second part of the Applet is the "Action" or the "Then That" step.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  In this step, you should choose Amplenote from the list, and then choose the appropriate Action. In this example, we will create a task:
  
  
  
  
  
  The parameters for this action lets you configure the destination of the task as well as the contents of the task.
  
  
  The "Text" property will be the visible contents of the task that you create, while "Description" will be the added as a [Rich Footnote](/help/rich_footnotes_content_preview)  applied to that text.You can also add a URL or an image to the Rich Footnote that will be created.
  
  
  "Ingredients" are the most powerful tool to configure the content that gets added to Amplenote. An "ingredient" is a field that gets pulled automatically from the trigger. In this case, since we are connecting to Google Drive, some useful ingredients we can access are the name of the file or metadata assigned to it. Use the "Add ingredient" button in the IFTTT interface to insert these variables:
  
  
  Note the usage of line breaks <br>, to enable us to format text on multiple lines.
  
  To finish creating your Applet, press "Create Action" at the bottom of the screen and then enable your Applet.
