I've successfully created my first IOT Thing with a Nano 33 IOT which displays temp, humidity, and barometric pressure. The PC & Mobile Dashboard works fine. There are apparently no Alexa-capable types that will work for pressure or humidity. My temperature variable is defined as type CloudTemperatureSensor, a type visible to Alexa
However, the temperature displayed in Alexa was 84 degrees higher than what is correctly shown on the Dashboard. After some experimenting, I found that if I set my Alexa visible (CloudTemperatureSensor) to Celsius, Alexa correctly displays it in Fahrenheit. Curious. I'm not sure why this is so. I can find no settings related to this. Might not be a bug, just quirky.
The API will be in universal units so it can be used worldwide. The rest of the world doesn't use Farenheit at all.
Yes, you are entirely correct, just a newbee wandering in the magical Arduino forest learning new incantations....
