What is IFTTT?
About
IFTTT is an RSS feed fetcher that monitors RSS and Atom feeds to trigger automated workflows and integrations. It crawls feeds to detect new content and executes user-configured automation triggers when new feed items are published. You can see how often IFTTT visits your website by setting up Dark Visitors agent analytics.
Expected Behavior
Fetchers visit websites on-demand. They're normally dispatched by apps to present metadata about a link (e.g. the title and thumbnail image) to a user.

Should I Block IFTTT?
Probably not. If you block a fetcher, it won't be able to fetch the metadata it needs to display a link preview. Fewer people will click on the link to your website without this.
How Do I Block IFTTT?
You can block IFTTT or limit its access by setting user agent token rules in your website's robots.txt. Set up Dark Visitors agent analytics to check whether it's actually following them.
