I’ve been trying to set up a connection between my Particle device (Argon and Photon2) and Ubidots dashboard using webhooks, but I’m encountering some issues. Despite following the guides provided by Ubidots, I can’t seem to get any data to show up on my dashboard.
Here’s what I’ve done so far:
Created webhooks on Particle integration as per the instructions.
Configured the webhook URLs, request type, and JSON data.
Verified device setup on Particle and assigned variables correctly.
Created a new dashboard on Ubidots with the necessary data sources and variables.
Ensured that the Particle device is sending analog values.
However, despite all this, I’m still not seeing any data updates on my Ubidots dashboard. I even tried deleting the demo device and dashboard and starting fresh with a mini dashboard, but no luck. Since I have redo the dashboard I have to wait till ubidots receive data to have a device showned.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Particle-Ubidots integration? Any tips or troubleshooting steps you can suggest? I’d appreciate any help or insights you can provide!
Also here is the exemple code :
// This #include statement was automatically added by the Particle IDE.
#include <Ubidots.h>
// This example sends data to a variable to
// Ubidots using Particle Webhooks.
const char *WEBHOOK_NAME = "Ubidots";
Ubidots ubidots("webhook", UBI_PARTICLE);
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(115200);
//ubidots.setDebug(true); // Uncomment this line for printing debug messages
}
void loop()
{
float value1 = analogRead(A0);
ubidots.add("Variable_Name_One", value1); // Change for your variable name
Particle.publish("Variable_Name_One", String(value1));
bool bufferSent = false;
bufferSent = ubidots.send(WEBHOOK_NAME, PUBLIC); // Will use particle webhooks to send data
if (bufferSent)
{
// Do something if values were sent properly
Particle.publish("Values sent by the device");
}
delay(30000);
}
Here is a screenshot with the device sending data to ubidots :
Is there any way to obtain a HTTP request error directly in the Particle console? This kind of errors would give us more details about why you’re not receiving data in your account.
Could you please share with me the email or username of your Ubidots account?
Could you kindly clarify where you obtained the X-Auth-Token? I’m verifying your account, and it seems I’m unable to locate that particular token. Upon reviewing your API Tokens, I noticed you have only one, and it differs from the token configured in the Webhook.
The email and username I provided belong to my first account. I attempted the procedure with two accounts, thinking that the issue might be related to the account.(nacros11-nkhouatra4@gmail.com)
Regarding the image you shared, I used the token that you highlighted in red.
As for the device configuration, I’m unable to set it up. According to a Ubidots tutorial, in order for the device to appear, data must be sent via the device. Since I’m encountering an error, it’s expected that no device is currently visible.
Appreciate your patience. Since this is my first time working with Webhooks, I don’t have a definitive answer yet. I’m exploring various troubleshooting steps and seeking additional information to gain a better understanding of the issue.
For now I might say that’s deleting the header could be possible, but I haven’t try yet and also I don’t really know how to do it.
As for the response webhook, I don’t know what to put in there.
I have use the code for creating a mesh between two particle devices :
// This #include statement was automatically added by the Particle IDE.
#include <Ubidots.h>
/****************************************
* Include Libraries
****************************************/
#ifndef UBIDOTS_TOKEN
#define UBIDOTS_TOKEN "BBUS-PHrBOX6Z0ZW96DXVFkd4OfyvoFlfCd" //Put here your Ubidots TOKEN
#endif
Ubidots ubidots(UBIDOTS_TOKEN, UBI_INDUSTRIAL, UBI_MESH);
/****************************************
* Auxiliar Functions
****************************************/
// Put here your auxiliar functions
/****************************************
* Main Functions
****************************************/
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
ubidots.setCloudProtocol(UBI_PARTICLE);
// Uncomment this line for printing debug messages
// ubidots.setDebug(true);
}
void loop() {
ubidots.meshLoop();
}
For the UBI_MESH error, I think it’s because I need to replace this name by an variable but I don’t really know.
Do you have an idea of what’s going on and what should I do next?
Thanks,
I’m probably not going to offer anything great, but the original way you had it setup in the pictures in your first post look the same as mine. only difference I saw was that I had ‘enforce ssl’ checked off on the bottom. I can’t recall how I did this and was probably pulling stuff off the internet, so I can’t tell you why or how…hopefully it helps?
