Thank you!!! I created a device simulator in Groovy. I followed your instructions to set up a device and then the command line. I also took note of John Linebarge's update for the first CLI command. When I ran my simulator the telemetry started streaming to the terminal on my first attempt. You did a phenomenal job on your video presentation. Really appreciate your efforts and craftsmanship.

where can i find the next video where u have used temperature sensor device

[nellowmellow]

Hello sir, enjoyed the video and glad you are here because I am thinking of doing this as my final project. You mentioned a video on how to direct the sensor data to Azure, is it up? Could you type up the link please

[KHALIFLA]

Is there any way to send a string variable to Iot central? I can only send constant variable using the json_writer_append_string! sending integer is ez but String apparently very challenging

[alokverma]

Hi, its a very nice video to understand and transfer data to azure. But, where is the next video you are talking about reading and transferring data from the temperature sensor to the cloud. Please, send link.

the message limit is 8000/ day, so it also means number of executions pushed to cloud right ? if my program sends multiple values in single execution it is also considered as single message right?

Thank you for your great video. How can I start the Python program at startup of the Pi? I tried with the command
“sudo bash -c '/usr/bin/python3 > /home/pi/blink.log 2>&1' &” in the rc.local file.
But then the name resolution don’t work with this error line:
“socket.gaierror: [Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution”.
Do you have any idea?

How can I sending data to Microsoft Azure IoT Hub using an ESP32 and Micropython? will the code for Raspberry pi will work on ESP32?

[wcfougu]

your speed of internet has nothing to with deployment time of azure iot hub. That is linked to processing time of Azure
