Ring Alarm
Ifttt contact sensor alerts
the ring alarm is very good as are all ring products; however, they really lack ifttt integration. the ring products would set themselves apart if they added ifttt services to: - allow triggering to occur after a contact sensor is opened. this would enable other smart things to happen when an sensor is opened. - enable ability to arm and disarm (although arming can be accomplished through alexa) anyone else feel a need for these features?

So you can't do it with IFTTT outside of motion sensors. You can do it within Alexa routines. I have used the contact sensors in closet doors to trigger lights turning on/off and even on the refrigerator to make sure the doors are closed all the way. The alexa routine building is pretty straight forward, but it lacks timing...for instance: turn on a closet light for 5 minutes if the contact sensor is activated etc.

The lack of IFTTT is pretty poor actually. I just want to set a simple routine that says when I set my alarm to away (ie , no one is home) everything turns off.

Same here. Would be brilliant if they added this, but don't hold your breath.
