Creating a channel

Now we need a new channel to store all our data. From the home page, click on New Channel and fill in the form as shown here:

Field	Value
Name	Pi3 DHT11 Node
Description	A Raspberry Pi 3, DHT11 node to log the temperature and humidity of the surroundings
Field 1	Temperature
Field 2	Humidity

 

Then click on Save Channel.

Now we have our own dashboard with two charts, one for temperature and another for humidity. These are empty as we have not posted any data to this platform.
