We were not able to upload the template sketch

Hi @benmendez7777. I see there is an incompatibility between the "Plug and Make Getting Started" template's code and the latest version of the "ArduinoIoTCloud" library it uses.

I have notified the Arduino developers of the problem.

Until they have updated the code to be compatible with the latest version of the library, if you want to use this template you need to configure your Arduino Cloud account so that the compatible version of the library as a workaround for the incompatibility. I'll provide instructions you can follow to do that:

  1. Click the following link to download the previous version of the "ArduinoIoTCloud" library:
    https://downloads.arduino.cc/libraries/github.com/arduino-libraries/ArduinoIoTCloud-2.5.1.zip
  2. Wait for your web browser to finish the download.
  3. If you are not already, log in to your Arduino account:
    https://login.arduino.cc/login
  4. Click the following link to open the Arduino Cloud "Sketches" page in your web browser:
    https://app.arduino.cc/sketches
  5. Click the "˅ CREATE" button at the top right corner of the "Sketches" page.
    A menu will open.
  6. Select "Import local file" from the menu.
    The "Import files" dialog will open.
  7. Click the "IMPORT" link at the bottom of the "Import files" dialog.
    The "Open" dialog will open.
  8. Select the ArduinoIoTCloud-2.5.1.zip file you downloaded at step 1 of these instructions from the "Open" dialog.
  9. Click the "Open" button.
    The "Open" dialog will close and a file import process will start, as indicated by a progress bar in the "Import files" dialog.
  10. Wait for the import process to finish, as indicated by the appearance of a "Successfully imported files" message in the "Import files" dialog.
  11. Click the "CLOSE" link at the bottom of the "Import files" dialog.
    The dialog will close.

Now try using the template again, just as you did before when you encountered this problem. Hopefully this time it will work as expected.


Please let us know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.
