Trouble Changing Flash Mode and Upload Speed in Arduino IoT Cloud for ESP32

Hey,

I recently started using Arduino IoT Cloud as an interface for my ESP32. While uploading sketches, I felt the need to change the flash mode of my ESP32 from QIO to DIO since my ESP32 only supports DIO. However, whenever I open the Flavour dropdown on the online editor, none of the options like upload speed or flash mode seem to do anything, no matter how many times I click them. I tried turning off my adblocker and changing browsers, but to no avail. Can someone check if this is a problem only I am facing, or is it a bug?

Thanks!

Hi @thebelovedkoichi. Thanks for your report. The Arduino Cloud developers have been notified of this bug and work on a fix is in progress. I'll post an update here if I receive any news about a resolution.

I confirm that this bug affects everyone when working with Arduino Cloud IoT Thing sketches in Cloud Editor.

As long as you don't require OTA uploading for now, as a workaround you can use the free open source Arduino IDE application for development, compilation, and uploads of your Thing sketch. The download links for Arduino IDE are listed here:

If you like, you can simply copy the code from Cloud Editor to Arduino IDE (making sure to get thingProperties.h in addition to the primary sketch file). However, you might find Arduino IDE's integration with your Arduino Cloud sketchbook to be useful when working with Thing sketches in Arduino IDE:

Hello again @thebelovedkoichi. The bug you encountered has now been fixed. You should now be able to select "DIO" from the "Flash Mode" menu.

I apologize for any inconvenience this bug has caused.

Please let us know if you still have any problems using Arduino Cloud.
