Lifx, Alexa and IFTTT

Using LIFX
#1

Hi, any help is greatly appreciated!

I’m looking for a little assistance with my Lifx lights, Alexa and IFTTT integration.
I would like to have my Lifx lights blink continuously, White, when the timer of my Alexa goes off and stops when I cancel the timer.
I have been able to do this but the lights only blink the specific number set in IFTTT and stops. Looking for the blinking to continue until the Alexa cancellation command is given.
Thanks for any input;
Frank

Hello,

You can sort of do this by setting a really large number in ifttt for the number of blinks, and then to cancel you can set a new colour on the device using the http API and it’ll stop the blinking waveform.

Thank you sounds good!
