Model: Tapo C200  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.8 build 210425 rel.66776n

Hi I would lie to be abel to use the motion sensor on the C200 as a trigger for other smart tech (turning on a light when the garage door opens) I've checked on Alexa, Google home and IFTTT and can't see any way of getting this trigger and using it to do something else. Has anyone managed to do something like this?

 

Thank you

@Chris_Bear +1, however I have no hope that it will happen

@Chris_Bear +1 for this. I only bought the camera for this reason and thought it would be an easy set up. 
 

The screenshot is from ifttt, looks like TP-link created a trigger for the Arlo camera to turn on lights but not their own Tapo camera.
