Hi, I'm 12 and trying send data to my Arduino Cloud Dashboard. I have an Arduino UNO with ESP-01. Can this setup communicate with the Arduino Cloud IoT? If not, is there a workaround? Or should I use another IoT Cloud platform? This is for a science fair project. Any help here would be much appreciated 
By ESP-01 do you mean the ESP8266? The designation ESP-01 is rather rare. However, the Arduino Uno is not compatible with the Arduino IoT Cloud. But I will find out more about what can be done.
So I have the following component:
Installed on my Arduino UNO (via rx/tx).
So I can connect directly to ESP8266 ESP01 but not UNO. Can the UNO send data (values for the cloud variables) to ESP8266 which will send up to the IoT Cloud?
Theoretically this is possible, there are also online tutorials for ESP8266 + Arduino UNO and ESP8266 + Arduino IoT Cloud. But since I'm not that good at programming, I can't help that much anymore.
I have the same question -- I know other IOT platforms support this setup. Can someone share a link if there are any tutorials on hooking up a UNO to Arduino IOT Cloud via ESP8266? I haven't found anything.
Same. Couldn't find any tutorial on this.
Yes, it could be done, you could send the data from UNO to ESP8266 over serial (RX,TX) and then upload that data on the Arduino IOT Cloud via ESP8266.
Awesome!
Could you share a code snippet or some examples of this?
Thanks!!
I can`t write the code for you, start from somewhere, first figure out how to do serial communication between 2 boards, you have many tutorials about that.

If we do serial write (UNO) and serial read (ESP8266) -- I'm thinking the best way for @jslm is to write a comma-delimited string that he can parse in ESP9266 and set the cloud variables for. Thoughts?
