Trying to write only to topic 6:

But it writes same value to ALL fields, except field 6.

The configured API URL and API KEY settings are lost when NodeRed is restarted. We need to be able to get the URL and KEY saved and reloaded on restart....

thingspeak42 only drawback is that I do not get the payload from thingspeak after execution.
Kindly see if this can be implemented.

Currently, the workaround is that I need to create URL, http request, template and http response to get the thingspeak payload.

Can this be taken care off in thingspeak42 node itself?

This is a very useful node, thanks for creating it. It's not clear to me how the node handles an event where multiple messages from the same topic arrive during the time-out period.

For example, if there is a 60-second time-out period and four different messages arrive on the topic foo/bar, which gets sent to Thingspeak? The most recent, or an average, or the peak value? Is there a way to control this?

i am running node red in windows on localhost . do you have to change any settings

Hi,

I am very new to this. It is a very basic question. Kindly help.

I tried to search google, but there is no info on this.

Why is it always in READY state and not moving to the next state. I have a debug which shows the contents of the input to the fields.

for example: "msg.payload.xyz" the debug displays the value of this, but not sure why thingspeak42 is not taking it.

I'm entering the correct 16 character API Write Key, but when I Deploy the flow, the API Key in the node reverts to 8 characters and, obviously, nothing appears in ThingSpeak.

If I enter the Key, hit DONE and then reopen the node, it appears to have retained the 16 characters - so it appears to be getting messed up when its deployed.

This is driving me nuts...

Hi,
Is it possible that you change your many info outputs to debug.
Many thanks

i have this problem whats the problem

I have done everything but nothing be displayed on thingspeak.
Would you mind helping me?

I would like to use one function to send to multiple Thingspeak channels.
My function identifies unique variable, then assigns a known API Key.

var Node = JSON.parse(msg.payload);
var api_key
if (Node == 100) {
var api_key = "xxxxxxxx1";
}
if (Node == 200) {
api_key = "xxxxxxxx2";
}
msg.payload = api_key;
return msg;
