Noob here...What is the best way to send values other than pressure and temperature from the Nordic Thingy 52 to the cloud?

Hey guys! Like the title says, I'm looking for the best way to send values like humidity and VOC from the Nordic Thingy to the cloud. I have already set up the thingy to send pressure data and temperature data to a self-updating Google Sheet using ITFTT and webhooks, but there does not seem to be an option to send other forms of data. Can someone guide me in the right direction? I was thinking that this would have to involve using the SDK to make a custom firmware for the Thingy, but is there a simpler way of doing this?

Thanks!

Hi check,

Which app are you using? iOS, Android, Web or Node?

It's great to hear that you have Thingy working with IFTTT and Google Sheets. Luckily, you do not have to write custom firmware in order to send data from other sensors. The whole idea of Thingy is that you should be able to interface with the hardware through high-level software.

We provide source code for all our apps and this is where you should make modifications in order to send data from other sensors via IFTTT. Let me know which app you are using and I can point you in the right direction.

Hey Ketil! Thank you so much for the quick response! Right now I am using the Android app with my thingy.

Thanks!

Hi again,

Please check out the source code for our reference Android application on GitHub for how to send data from other sensors to IFTTT.
