EDIT: Also available on GitHub.
Smartfire is a hardware that is controlling your smoker or BBQ temperature when preparing brisket, ribs, pulled pork or whatever you want. Smartfire is controlled via bluetooth or wifi using a mobile application (and cloud service in wifi model). In the newest firmware there is an option to send data also to IFTTT webhook. When I first time heard about this, I could also hear my home assistant to tell mee: “Markus, your brisket is ready after 5 degrees”.
Integrating IFTTT webhook to Home Assistant webhook through e.g. Nabu Casa is quite simple. Create a If this, then that application in IFTTT with a customized body. Mine looks like this:
Smartfire sends it’s status in the event called smartfire-status. So If you receive a webhook to https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/smartfire-status/your-ifttt-webhook-key, you get the temperature payload from Smartfire to IFTTT.
When data is in Home Assistant, I’ve created a dashboard to my wall iPad and I can use the values in notifications normally.
How to setup the integration:
- Sign in to IFTTT and get your IFTTT Webhook key (https://ifttt.com/maker_webhooks) and select Documentation. It says Your key is: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Copy that key.
- Go to your Smart fire app (I prefer a browser https://app.smartfirebbq.com, but native mobile app is also fine) and paste the key only under Advanced Settings of your Pit.
- Create your IFTTT If this then that -application under https://ifttt.com/create. Select webhook for the trigger part (with a parameter smartfire-status) and webhook for the action part of the app. You can copy my values from my example screenshot above. I pass the eventname (for filtering purposes in Home Assistant) , timestamp, value1, value2 and value3 (these are sent by the hardware itself) to the webhook body.
- I use node-red for my automations in home assistant, so I created an automation to there: If IFTTT Webhook is received and it’s from smartfire, do some magic, convert temperatures ot celsius and pass them to the Home Assistant entities.

- The magic what is done in the Node-RED is to replace => -marks with a colon (:). This is done, because Smartfire is sending temperatures as a JSON Object and IFTTT understands only JSON Strings. IFTTT converts colons to => -marking, when it’s converting the payload from the Object to the String. After this, we convert the JSON-payload to objects, Fahrenheits to Celsius and round those to have not more than one decimal.
- Now you have all entities in the home assistant for dashboarding ready.
This is my version 1.0 of the integration
