I used Blynk for this project as I wanted to connect it with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant via IFTTT

## **Blynk App and IFTTT**

**Configuring the Blynk App**

Now for the Blynk App, You can go ahead and create a new project, Add two buttons (One to change the state from 0 to 1 and another to change the state from 0 to 2 for the V1 pin) And you are set !

**Connecting with IFTTT**

Now go ahead and open <https://ifttt.com/create>and repeat steps 1-8 for the following situations-

- Applet for voice interaction with **Alexa** to send it** up**. (Enter value 1 instead of **X **for up)

- Applet for voice interaction with **Alexa** to send it **down**. (Enter value 2 for down)

- Applet for voice interaction with **Google Assistant **to send it **up**.(It is very similar to make applet for Assistant)

- Applet for voice interaction with **Google Assistant** to send it **down**.

## **Test Run **
