Arduino Cloud Help - MKR Wifi 1010

Hi,

I am struggling with this and lost a lot of hair. Hoping someone can help:

What I am trying to do: Make an HTTP request from another app to change the value of a cloud variable ("todo" int variable on arduino cloud) for my arduino device.

I have a variable called "todo" (int variable)...I am trying to figure out what the structure of the Arduino API should be so that I can use the code below to pass different variables through the arduino cloud API to my arduino device:

local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService")

-- Replace with your Arduino Cloud API endpoint and token
local url = "YOUR_ARDUINO_CLOUD_API_ENDPOINT"
local token = "YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN"

local function updateArduinoCloudVariable(value)
    local headers = {
        ["Content-Type"] = "application/json",
        ["Authorization"] = "Bearer " .. token
    }

    local body = {
        -- Replace 'variableName' with the name of your variable in Arduino Cloud
        variableName = value
    }

    local data = HttpService:JSONEncode(body)

    local success, response = pcall(function()
        return HttpService:RequestAsync({
            Url = url,
            Method = "PUT", -- or "POST", depending on the API requirement
            Headers = headers,
            Body = data
        })
    end)

    if success then
        print("Request successful: ", response.Body)
    else
        warn("Request failed: ", response)
    end
end

-- Example usage
updateArduinoCloudVariable(true) -- or false

I have the auth token, but now what exactly goes inside of "YOUR_ARDUINO_CLOUD_API_ENDPOINT" to pass values to that device's variable?
