Connect to Arduino IoT Cloud - Arduino Nano 33 IoT
A simple blink program to connect to Arduino IoT Cloud using the Arduino Nano 33 IoT
Supplies
- Arduino Nano 33 IoT
- Micro USB cable
- Blue LED
- Breadboard (optional)
- Arduino IoT Cloud account
Arduino IoT Cloud
- Connect to the Arduino IoT Cloud service by creating a free (or more) account.
- Connect the Arduino to the computer using a USB cable
Connect Device
- Click on the Devices tab and connect your device to the IoT cloud
Make a Thing
- In the Things tab add a variable "blueLED" as a boolean type
- Configure the Network after that
- Write the Sketch below. Bold underline text is to be added
/*
Sketch generated by the Arduino IoT Cloud Thing "Untitled"

Arduino IoT Cloud Variables description
The following variables are automatically generated and updated when changes are made to the Thing
bool blueLED;
Variables which are marked as READ/WRITE in the Cloud Thing will also have functions
which are called when their values are changed from the Dashboard.
These functions are generated with the Thing and added at the end of this sketch.
*/
#include "thingProperties.h"
int myLED = 2;
void setup() {
// Initialize serial and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
// This delay gives the chance to wait for a Serial Monitor without blocking if none is found
delay(1500);
// Defined in thingProperties.h
initProperties();
pinMode(myLED,OUTPUT);
// Connect to Arduino IoT Cloud
ArduinoCloud.begin(ArduinoIoTPreferredConnection);
/*
The following function allows you to obtain more information
related to the state of network and IoT Cloud connection and errors
the higher number the more granular information you’ll get.
The default is 0 (only errors).
Maximum is 4
*/
setDebugMessageLevel(2);
ArduinoCloud.printDebugInfo();
}
void loop() {
ArduinoCloud.update();
// Your code here
}
/*
Since BlueLED is READ_WRITE variable, onBlueLEDChange() is
executed every time a new value is received from IoT Cloud.
*/
void onBlueLEDChange() {
// Add your code here to act upon BlueLED change
Serial.println(blueLED);
if(blueLED){
digitalWrite(myLED,HIGH);
} else{
digitalWrite(myLED,LOW);
}
}
Make the Circuit
- add the blue LED to digital pin 2
- short leg on Ground and the long leg on pin 2
Make a Dashbord
- On the Dashboard tab add a switch
- Link the switch to the blueLED variable
- TEST
- Click the switch
- You can download the Arduino Dashboard app from the Android or iPhone stores to control remotely
