Thingspeak arduino library seem not to work with WiFi101OTA library

[grezco]

Hello, From the example "WriteVoltage", if I add :

include

….

void setup() { ….. WiFiOTA.begin("Arduino", "password", InternalStorage);
}

void loop() { WiFiOTA.poll(); …... }

I have the error code -301 (Failed to connect to ThingSpeak)

Could you help me to use ThingSpeak with OTA functionality ?

We're working on an update to this library. We can take a look at the OTA functions. It will take a couple of weeks to get to it though.

Thanks you. I will wait this update with impatience to try it.

I tried using the OTA library with ThingSpeak. It compiles fine and I can update my channel. I don't get the -301. BUT, I can't get this board to show up in the Port menu as a network option. Here is my code, maybe it will work on your setup.

include "ThingSpeak.h"

include

include

include

include "secrets.h"

char ssid[] = SECRET_SSID; // your network SSID (name) char pass[] = SECRET_PASS; // your network password WiFiClient client;

unsigned long myChannelNumber = SECRET_CH_ID; const char * myWriteAPIKey = SECRET_WRITE_APIKEY;

int number = 0;

void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); // Initialize serial ThingSpeak.begin(client); // Initialize ThingSpeak }

void loop() {

// Connect or reconnect to WiFi if(WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED){ Serial.print("Attempting to connect to SSID: "); Serial.println(SECRET_SSID); while(WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED){ WiFi.begin(ssid, pass); / Serial.print("."); delay(5000);
} Serial.println("\nConnected.");

// start the WiFi OTA library with internal (flash) based storage
WiFiOTA.begin("Arduino", "password", InternalStorage);

}

// check for WiFi OTA updates WiFiOTA.poll();

// Write to ThingSpeak. There are up to 8 fields in a channel, allowing you to store up to 8 different // pieces of information in a channel. Here, we write to field 1. int x = ThingSpeak.writeField(myChannelNumber, 1, number, myWriteAPIKey); if(x == 200){ Serial.println("Channel update successful."); } else{ Serial.println("Problem updating channel. HTTP error code " + String(x)); }

// change the value number++; if(number > 99){ number = 0; }

delay(20000); // Wait 20 seconds to update the channel again }
