Background
Applets use the Triggers, Queries, and Actions associated with the account you’ve connected to each service on IFTTT. For example, if you’ve connected a specific Facebook Page to the Facebook Pages service, any Triggers will run based on updates to that Page, and any Actions will post to it. If you’d like to change which account is connected to a service, follow these steps:
Updating the account connected to a service
- Go to the service page you’d like to change
- Select ⚙︎ Settings
- Select Reconnect
- Enter the login credentials for the account you want to use and follow the on screen prompts
By default, any Applets that were using the previously connected account will automatically switch to use the new one.
You won’t need to make any changes as long as the inputs are still valid. If something no longer matches, you’ll need to edit the Applet to update those details. For example, if you switch which Trello account is connected and the new one doesn’t include the board that an Applet uses, that Applet won’t be able to run until it’s updated.
To fix this, open the Applet’s settings and update the inputs to match your new account.
Troubleshooting
If you’re trying to change the account connected to a service that you’re currently logged into in your browser, make sure to log out of that account on the service’s website before following the steps above.
When you connect a service on IFTTT, it will automatically use the account that’s already signed in on that service’s website. If you stay logged in, IFTTT will default to using that account again, even if you meant to connect a different one.
For example, if you’re updating the X (formerly Twitter) service to use a different account, go to x.com, log out of your current account, then visit ifttt.com/twitter and follow the steps in the section above to connect the correct one.
Connecting multiple accounts to a service
On the Free and Pro tiers you can connect a single account to each service on IFTTT. If you'd like to connect multiple accounts from one service to a single IFTTT account that is available on the Pro+ tier, You can view more details about connecting multiple accounts to a service on our help center here.
