I need to automate a kasa smart plug (hvac in line fan plugged into that) turning on somehow when The nest (air conditioning) turns and when the nest (fan only on ac) turns on
How can I accomplish this? Google automate?
Or IFTTT?
I did see IFTTT had an applet with nest fan/wemo plug but not for mine…here it is https://ift.tt/wf8Ng4H
But it tells me there’s gotta be a script or coder some way to do it. I just need it in simple language
plz and thanks

automations:
- starters:
- type: device.state.TemperatureSetting
state: thermostatTemperatureAmbient
device: thermostat - Family Room
lessThan: 18C
actions:
- type: device.command.OpenClose
devices:
- blinds - Bedroom
openPercent: 100
- type: device.command.OnOff
devices: fan - Bedroom
on: true
- type: device.command.ThermostatTemperatureSetpoint
devices:

That doesn’t help respectfully-
I only want the smart plug to turn on when the nest turns on the air conditioner

Do you use the Google Home App or the Google Home web page?

I could use either

OK. I use the Google Home App on my Smartphone to see my Home and all the Devices. There you can Edit simple automations too. If you wont writing scripts you have to go to the Google Home web page.

I have the same question - want to power on a whole home scent diffuser connected to my hvac but only when hvac (via Nest thermostat) is on
