Draft Documentation for Triggering “Eating Soon Mode” via Pebble Watch Uses IFTTT and pebble watch app ThisButton by The Hub Media

Triggering “Eating Soon Mode” via Pebble Watch

•	Setup IFTTT account
•	Connect to Maker channel and note secret key
•	Create do recipe
    o	Note I had to download the DO Button app to my phone and create the basic recipe there. I then edited it from the web with the proper content.
    o	make web request
        •	URL: https://mynightscout.com/api/v1/treatments.json
        •	Method: POST
        •	Content type: application/json
        •	Body: { "enteredBy": "Maker", "eventType": "Temporary Target", "reason": "Eating Soon", "targetTop": 80, "targetBottom": 80, "duration": 60} 
            •	Note these are the default settings and can be customized. 
            •	Note the enteredBy field is not required and can be changed to a value more meaningful to you or omitted entirely.
•	Test it works on the Maker Channel by looking under How To Trigger Events. If correctly setup, you should see a new temp target event on you Nightscout site after IFTTT says it successfully triggered. 
•	On your phone in the pebble app search for the ThisButton app in the pebble app store.
•	Configure app
    o	Note the description for the difference between Name and Event Name
•	To make things super easy add a shortcut on your pebble for the ThisButton app
    o	If you don’t have shortcuts already, press and hold either the up or down button and follow the prompts.
    o	If you have both shortcuts programmed and want to change one, go to menu > settings> quick launch and follow prompts. 

Hi Rachel, looks fantastic. Amazing job. Still running pebble here! I need some help to get it working fine. I'd like to have: "this button" to trigger one of my recipe (e.g. log GPS into spreadsheet). Just need to hook up the trigger to my recipe if possible. Thanks for your help

Hi,

You should be able to do this. Unfortunately I no longer have a working pebble setup and it’s been a long time since I’ve done this so I can’t give you detailed instructions. The basic process should be the same - set up and test the recipe, setup This Button app, add the recipe to This Button.

Hi there, thanks so much for your reply! I will try to figure out how to have it running. I'm just stuck at triggering my existing recipe... Will investigate deeper. if you can get in touch using my email, it would be fantastic. nanolifelab at g mail dot com as this interface is confusing for me. Thanks a lot Rachel!
