Provision Feed and Seed Data
with Adafruit IO
Create a feed, write its first data point, and read the latest value back.
- Create a new feed for the user with the supplied name, optional key, and optional description.
- Write the initial data point to the newly created feed using its returned feed key.
- Read the most recent data point from the feed to confirm the seed value was stored and the feed is live.
What you'll need to have ready
- username: A valid Adafruit IO username (the account that owns the feed).
- aioKey: The Adafruit IO API key, sent in the X-AIO-Key header.
- name: Human readable name for the new feed (e.g. "Living Room Temp").
- key: Optional machine key for the feed; generated from the name if omitted.
- description: Optional description for the new feed.
