Google Assistant Controlled Raspberry Pi GPIO With IFTTT and Adafruit IO

Introduction

We have shared a tutorial of Google Assistant and Raspberry Pi last year using IFTTT and Particle IO. But Particle IO no longer supports the Raspberry Pi, so the previous tutorial is obsolete. For this tutorial, we will try to update using IFTTT and Adafruit IO platforms.

Video

This video shows how to control relay using Raspberry Pi and Adafruit IO.

This video shows how to link between Google Assistant and Adafruit IO using IFTTT.
