As of April 1, LINE has deprecated the APIs that powered the original IFTTT LINE service. This means the original LINE integration is no longer functional. To continue supporting LINE users, we've launched a new LINE service using an updated API.
This updated integration is available to all users, including those on our Free plan. Read on for more details about the change and how to connect to the new service.

To start using the updated LINE integration, follow these steps:
-
Click Connect.
-
Follow the on-screen prompts to authenticate your LINE account.
Once connected, you can start creating and using Applets with the new LINE service.
