Uploading a sketch to a mini / pro mini from Arduino Create Editor

It doesn't make sense that in the IDE you can download to a Arduino pro mini but can't with the Arduino Create Editor. Why isn't there was a port selector option like in the IDE? Is it assumed that there isn't a USB to UART module attached to that pro mini?
:frowning:

There is a port selector.
Click the little down arrow in the board selection box.
Select any of the options that say "Change" and you can select the board and the COM port in there.

Just threw up a quick video for you here

See the attachment to check what you should select to upload to a Pro Mini.
Let us know if you have other issues with it, thanks!

I'm using an FTDI programmer to a Pro Mini. Windows shows the port (9) being there and I can upload with the legacy app using port 9, but the web editor just has no port selection when I select "Arduino Pro Mini or Mini" The right shows mhz and chip variants. Works great on Nanos and Pro Micro.

"legacy app" ??

Just hooked up a real "MINI" here and used CREATE to upload a sketch with a cheap CH340 based adaptor to do it.

If your FTDI is on port 9 you should see the port in the upper right as shown here.

I have a lot of ports and IP's to choose from but in my case it was a different number.

Don't currently have an FTDI based ICSP or similar or I could test a little more.
If you have another Arduino you could use that instead of the FTDI.

Have you tried pressing RESET at the correct point in the upload process ?
