Arduino Cloud Agent Fails to Connect to the IoT

Development Tools Cloud IoT
1

I was playing around with the IoT and tried linking my UNO R4 WiFi board to it, which successfully linked, but the problem is when I try to upload the sketch it fabricated to the board.

I've already tried reinstalling the cloud agent many times, same result.
I've tried deleting and relinking my board many MANY times, same result.
Nobody seems to have the answer for this specific problem, and it's a little frustrating.

Below is a snippet of the cloud agent's debug console, which indicates that the port is inaccessible, which is incorrect as I'm able to send sketches to my board using the desktop IDE.

Some other miscellaneous info:

  • Windows 11
  • Opera GX Browser

What am I doing wrong? How do I fix this?

If you have questions, fire away!

I've found the solution!
Here were my steps:

  1. Download the code files to my desktop
  2. Extract the files from the zip file provided to a folder on my desktop
  3. Run the .ino file
  4. Change the SSID and pass in the arduino_secrets.h file to whatever your network information is
  5. Upload the code to your board
  6. Refresh the code editor in the browser window

Also be sure to check the activity status of your board under the devices tab of the cloud website!

The Arduino Cloud Agent may require additional permissions or settings to work properly on some browsers. Since you're using Windows 11, I recommend trying to upload your code using Microsoft Edge. That should resolve the issue.
