Help with webhook and ThingSpeak

Need Help With My Project
21

Hi to all
I am using:

https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key=XXXXXXXX&field1=/pin/

With web hook and it works.

My question is how to pass additional data to the same to update many fields at once?

For example:
https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key=XXXXXXX&field1=/pin/&field2=/intValue/&metadata={StringValue}

Thanks in advance

@hatters please follow docs - http://docs.blynk.cc/#widgets-other-webhook everything is there.

Not sure what this means but if you want to post additional variables from the Webhook widget you need to post the variables as an array to the Webhook trigger pin.

Blynk.virtualWrite(Vx, field0, field1, ......fieldn);

then call the array elements in the Webook as /pin[0]/,/pin[1]/,…, /pin[n]/

@Costas,
Do you mean something like this?

Blynk.virtualWrite(V10 temp,hum);

and this for the webhook
https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key=XXXXXXXXX&field1=/pin[0]&field2=/pin[1]/

Regards

think you are missing a /

https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key=XXXXXXXXX&field1=/pin[0]/&field2=/pin[1]/
