You didn't ask a question or provide much info, but I am pretty sure you failed to follow the IoT cloud instructions fully.

Hi @aasalinasy1. This error indicates that you are attempting to compile an Arduino Cloud IoT Thing sketch.

When you create a Thing via the Arduino Cloud website, it automatically generates a skeleton of a sketch for you, according to the configuration you selected for the Thing. This sketch contains multiple files:

  • The .ino file, which you will fill in with the code for your project
  • The thingProperties.h file, which contains the infrastructure for the Thing and does not require any modifications by the user

The error indicates that you are compiling a sketch that contains the .ino file for a Thing, but that is missing the thingProperties.h file.

If you need further assistance, we need to understand exactly what you are doing:

Did you set up the Arduino Cloud IoT Device and Thing on the Arduino Cloud website? If so, please provide a detailed description of what you did to get the sketch code from the Arduino Cloud website to Arduino IDE.

Or are you attempting to compile some code you found on the Internet? If so, please provide a link to the code you are using.
