Publishing data to ThingSpeak

In this section, we will discuss publishing our data to ThingSpeak. If you are not familiar with ThingSpeak, this is an open source software that enables the uploading of data from devices with internet connectivity, such as in our current project. This enables data to be collected from sensors and then analyzed. We chose ThingSpeak as an example of the various toolsets available for developers. Create a free account on https://thingspeak.com and create a new channel, as illustrated in the following screenshot:

Figure 4.12 – Creating a new channel

Give a name to your channel, fill in Field 1 (as shown in the following screenshot), and save the channel:

Figure 4.13 – Naming the channel

The channel has now been created. Make a note of the Write API Key value from the API Keys tab, as illustrated in the following screenshot:
