To be able to receive events from IFTTT, your Home Assistant instance needs to be accessible from the web ([Hass.io instructions](/addons/duckdns/)) and you need to have the `base_url` configured for the HTTP component ([docs](https://www.home-assistant.io/components/http/#base_url)).

To set it up, go to the integrations page in the configuration screen and find IFTTT. Click no configure. Follow the instructions on the screen to configure IFTTT.

How can I trigger an automation base on the content of event_data?

trigger:
  event: ifttt_webhook_received
  event_data:
    action: call_service

Also change the above json payload to

{ "action": "call_service", "service": "light.turn_on", "entity_id": "light.living_room" }
