I’m currently developing a multi-platform viewer using Flutter to eliminate the hassle of manual channel setup. Instead of adding IDs one by one, the app uses your User API Key to automatically discover and list all your ThingSpeak channels instantly.
Key Highlights (Work in Progress):
- Automatic Sync: All your channels appear in seconds.
- Multi-platform: Built for Web, Android, Windows, and Linux.
- Privacy-Focused: Secure local storage for your API keys.

Hi everyone
I've been using ThingSpeak for several years now without an issue until last Thursday.
I have four ThingSpeak channels which are used by three Arduino devices (in two locations/on two distinct networks) all running the same code.
All three devices stopped being able to write data to my ThingSpeak channels around 17:00 CET on 4 Dec and are still unable to.
Nothing changed on this side, let alone something that would explain the problem.
I would note that data can still be written to all the channels via a browser so there is no fundamental problem with the channels (such as being full).
Since the above date and time, any HTTP/1.1 'update' (write) requests via the REST API (using both simple one-write GET requests or bulk JSON POST requests) are timing out after 5 seconds and no data is being written. The 5 second timeout is my Arduino code's default, but even increasing it to 30 seconds makes no difference. Before all this, responses from ThingSpeak were sub-second.
I have recompiled the Arduino code using the latest libraries and that didn't help.
I have tested the same code again another random api (api.ipify.org) and that works just fine.
Curl works just fine too, also usng HTTP/1.1
So the issue appears to be something particular to the combination of my Arduino code *and* the ThingSpeak environment, where something changed on the ThingSpeak end at the above date and time.
If anyone in the community has any suggestions as to what might be going on, I would greatly appreciate the help.

Hello,
I have Arduino DIY Geiger Counter, that uploads data to my channel here in ThingSpeak (3171809), using ESP8266 WiFi board. It sends CPM values (counts per minute), Dose, VCC and Max CPM for 24h. They are assignet to Field from 1 to 4 respectively. How can I duplicate Field 1, so I could create different time chart for the same measured unit? Or should I duplicate Field 1 chart, and how? I tried to find the answer here in the blog, but I couldn't.
I have to say that I'm not an engineer or coder, just can simply load some Arduino sketches and few more things, so I'll be very thankfull if someone could explain like for non-IT users.
Regards,
Emo

Hey everyone,
I’m currently working with MATLAB R2025b and using the MQTT blocks from the Industrial Communication Toolbox inside Simulink. I’ve run into an issue that’s driving me a bit crazy, and I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if I’m missing something obvious.
Here’s what’s happening:
- I open the MQTT Configure block.
- I fill out all the required fields — Broker address, Port, Client ID, Username, and Password.
- When I click Test Connection, it says “Connection established successfully.” So far so good.
- Then I click Apply, close the dialog, set the topic name, and try to run the simulation.
- At this point, I get the following error:Caused by: Invalid value for 'ClientID', 'Username' or 'Password'.
- When I reopen the MQTT config block, I notice that the Password field is empty again — even though I definitely entered it before and the connection test worked earlier.
It seems like Simulink is somehow not saving the password after hitting Apply, which leads to the authentication error during simulation.
Has anyone else faced this? Is this a bug in R2025b, or do I need to configure something differently to make the password persist?
Would really appreciate any insights, workarounds, or confirmations from anyone who has used MQTT in Simulink recently.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I have some problem, I want to upload my data that sample rate at 500HZ, every sevral seconds.
My data include 12 bytes, and it measure 500HZ, for example for 15 seconds I coolect 15*500*12 = 84KB.
Can I upload this data to ThingSpeak? It is possible to use with Free acount (I am student and this is my project)
How can help me..
Is there a hardware support package available for the MP series?
I'm facing an issue where my Thinkspeak graph is not displaying, even though I'm using exactly the same code as my friend. The code works perfectly in their Thinkspeak account, but not on mine. I've checked the API keys, channel settings, and data formats, but everything seems similar. Has anyone else faced this problem, or do you have tips on what to check next? Suggestions are welcome!
Hi!
I'm having trouble sending data to a channel using MQTT. I'm using a program that was working perfectly until just a few days ago, but after making some minor changes yesterday, it stopped working. I’ve also tested it manually using the MQTTX client. If I send data using CURL and GET, it works fine.
It’s a bit strange...
Thankfully,
Ernesto.
Is it possible to create a Simulink model that is independent of specific microcontrollers?
For example, in the model, the STM32 block is used for CAN transmission. But if I want to deploy the same model to an Arduino, I have to replace the STM32 block with an Arduino-compatible one.
So, is it possible to create a custom block or abstraction that works across multiple microcontrollers like STM32, PIC32, and Arduino without changing the hardware-specific block each time?
Hello,
I've successfully tested the Processor-in-the-Loop (PIL) workflow in Simulink using a TI F28069M LaunchPad, following the standard examples provided by MathWorks. The PIL block, code generation, and communication all worked without issues.
Now, I’d like to run a similar PIL setup using the Infineon TLE9879 EVALKIT (based on an ARM Cortex-M0), which is not officially supported by Simulink as a target.
I’m wondering if it’s possible to configure PIL manually or via custom workflows. For example:
- Can I create a custom PIL target using Embedded Coder?
- Would I need to port rtiostream manually for communication over UART?
- Could I somehow integrate with Keil µVision (which I use for TLE9879) to build and run the generated code?
- Is there a workaround to simulate PIL behavior using a non-supported board?
My setup:
- Simulink R2024b
- Infineon TLE9879 EVALKIT
- Keil µVision 5 + Infineon Config Wizard
- UART and JTAG interfaces available
The main purpose is to validate control algorithms and measure execution time, not to implement a full HIL system.
Has anyone attempted PIL with a custom or unsupported microcontroller before? Any tips or resources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Sto tentando inutilmente di salvare il valore dell'enegia che consumo ogni giorno nel field5 di questo canale: https://thingspeak.mathworks.com/channels/2851490 , ma inutilemte in quanto vengono visualizzati sempre e solo 2 dati anche se ho impostato days=30. Ho provato ad aumentare a 365 ma senza variazioni. Come mai?

I want to use Simulink for model-based development of the TC3XX series development board, but I am not sure about the development process and toolchain? Is there a free toolchain available for me to use? Do you have a detailed development tutorial?
I have a pressure vs. time plot resulting from the input of an elastic wave, which I obtained from an Abaqus simulation. So, I have access to all the data. Now, I want to convert this time-domain graph into a frequency-domain graph using FFT in MATLAB.
I came across a code through ChatGPT, but I’m not fully confident in relying on it. Could anyone kindly clarify whether the formulas used for FFT in MATLAB are universal for all types of signals? Or is there a more effective and reliable method I should consider for this purpose?
Hi guys!
Im doing a project where i need to simulate a ship connected to the grid. I have a grid->converter AC-DC-AC -> dynamic load. My converter has to keep the voltage consistent and what changes is the current. Can somebody help me?
