We don't have support for these external services.
The way these "cloud based" services usually work is by letting the node actively query the web server.
So it is similar to what happens if you browse to a web site.
The answers (often encoded in JSON) are either updates of settings, or other commands.
Exactly the way how REST API's work, if you are really interested in learning more about them.

if there is no native cloud support one can always look if IFTTT is supported.
i have a cloud based doorbell without api support but since it has IFTTT i can contol it with google assistant, domoticz, node-red etc.
