[solved] Post data to Pushingbox with ESP8266

Projects Networking, Protocols, and Devices

I'm trying to make an http request on pushingbox using Arduino UNO R3 and ESP8266-1. I'm using Software Serial: SoftwareSerial ESP8266 (2, 3);
I can connect to my wifi and post data to thingspeak but not in pushingbox.
This is the code. Any idea;

  String cmd = "AT+CIPSTART=\"TCP\",\"";
  cmd += "api.pushingbox.com";
  cmd += "\",80";

  ESP8266.println(cmd);  //send command to device

  delay(3000);  //wait a little while for 'Linked' response - this makes a difference

  if(ESP8266.find("Error")){
    Serial.println("Error posting data to pushingbox");
    return;
  }
  cmd =  "GET /pushingbox?devid=";
  cmd += "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; //my devid
  cmd += " HTTP/1.1\r\n";  //construct http GET request
  cmd += "Host: api.pushingbox.com\r\n\r\n";  
  ESP8266.print("AT+CIPSEND=");                
  ESP8266.println(cmd.length());  //esp8266 needs to know message length of incoming message - .length provides this

  if(ESP8266.find(">"))    //prompt offered by esp8266
  {
    ESP8266.println(cmd);  //this is our http GET request
  }
  else
  {
    ESP8266.println("AT+CIPCLOSE");  //doesn't seem to work here?
    Serial.println("No '>' prompt received after AT+CPISEND");
  }
  
  ESP8266.println("AT+CIPCLOSE");

Ok, that works:

void updatePushingBox(String key, String variables){

String cmd = "AT+CIPSTART=\"TCP\",\"";
  cmd += "api.pushingbox.com";
  cmd += "\",80";
  ESP8266.println(cmd);
  Serial.println(cmd);
  delay(2000);
  if(ESP8266.find("Error")){
    Serial.println("Error posting data to pushingbox");
    return;
  }
  cmd = "GET /pushingbox?devid=" + key + variables + "  HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: api.pushingbox.com\r\nUser-Agent: Arduino\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n";
   
  ESP8266.print("AT+CIPSEND="); 
  ESP8266.println(cmd.length());
  delay(1000);
  
  ESP8266.print(cmd);
  //delay(1000);
  
  Get_reply();  
  ESP8266.println("AT+CIPCLOSE");

}

hi kokkytos

Can you post the full code for posting data to pushingbox ?
