I have made a channel at ThingSpeak ! Sending data to TS from a browser Works ok.
How do I send data from ESP8266 to TS ?
Which command(s) can be used to connet to TS ?
I have this from TS: https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_k ... *&field1=0

Thanks in advance

- Wed Nov 25, 2015 1:26 pm #34986 Dose thing speek only need you to pull on the url to send data?

If all you have to do is tug a url you can use the wget function.

I just set up a thing speek account. Seems to be posting the data using the following esp basic program.

Code: Select allTextbox MyData
button "click to post to thing speek" [postit]
wait

[postit]
bla = "api.thingspeak.com/update?key=5C1J2FHRGQM44M7R&field1=" & MyData
print wget(bla)
wait

What happens to all the returned data, can I send data to TS without overflowing any buffer ?

PS. I really like the Basic programming language. You are doing a great job.
