Hi everyone! I'm trying to create an IoT project with two Arduino MKR WIFI 1010 and one Raspberry Pi. The Arduinos are connected to the IoT Cloud and are able to communicate. I'm struggling to understand how to connect the Raspberry to the IoT Cloud. What I'm trying to reach is to make the two Arduino send commands to Raspberry and receive outputs from it. I've already configured it and is connected correctly to the Arduino Manager for Linux. Is there any way to connect the Raspberry to the Arduino IoT Cloud in the same way of the Arduinos? Thank you! ---

Thank you for the super fast answer! I would like to use the cloud because of his friendly dashboard and mobile app. I already tried the setup you linked and it worked, but when you setup the Raspberry following this method, it opens up the Arduino manager for Linux which seems a different platform than the IoT Cloud... On the IoT Cloud when I try to add a Device you can only select Arduino boards, ESP32 and LoRaWAN. ๐Ÿ˜• ---

Not sure what you expect. are you developing code on the RPi using Arduino's IoT cloud APIs ? for example in Python: [arduino-iot-client ยท PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/arduino-iot-client/) ---

Hi, Excuse me but I would like to drive my Raspberry Pi with Arduino IoT Cloud... Did you find a solution ? Thanks ---

Nope, Unfortunately due to time constraints I decided to work with MQTT protocol using Mosquitto. The Raspberry worked as a client and all the Arduino as publishers/subscribers. The functioning is actually pretty easy and stable. It is also 100% free, without spending for Pro versions or APIs ---

Hey, did it work? Connecting to the arduino iot cloud through the raspberry? Im trying to connect to the cloud but doesnt work for me. The wireless connection between the arduino and the raspberry works fine but thats all, there is no data being sent to the cloud.. ---
