    Hi @zeke-holloman – looks like the ThingSpeak keys and channel need to be added.

    Add them to (the following are examples)
    const char* thingSpeakMQTTKey =
    “Z0G6QX4IXEHKG0PK”; // Your MQTT API Key from Account > MyProfile.
    const char* thingSpeakChannelID =
    “5940”; // The numeric channel id for your channel eg
    const char* thingSpeakChannelKey =
    “DHCKWX0HZQLXGIAX”; // The Write API Key for your channel

    Your response is
    Topic [ 41 ]: channels/thingSpeakChannelID/publish/thingSpeakChannelKey

    and it should look something like

    Topic [ 38 ]: channels/5940/publish/DHCKWX0HZQLXGIAX <–ThingSpeakPublisher
