I'm sorry, I'm not sure I heard you right. Did you say you can build a custom app but still use IFTTT?

Here's a link to http://Zapier.com

I downvoted you because you seem to be implying that programmers shouldn't use IFTTT. There's nothing wrong with IFTTT if it meets your needs.

Not original commenter, I used to use and like them, but at one point they changed all URLs to use their shortener (I was using it to archive all links I post on FB into an Evernote note). Great, they want to do more analytics and they're making sure all URLs in content they're supposed to be just plumbing will die with them, very customer friendly.

And then there's this: https://blog.pinboard.in/2016/03/my_heroic_and_lazy_stand_ag...

Thanks but I'm aware of Zapier. The custom app is fairly easy to maintain, I can keep track of changes and it provides total flexibility for my needs in terms of parsing and how to store the data.
