The `thingspeak` components makes Home Assistant communicate with the [ThingSpeak API](https://thingspeak.com/).
|
|
For now, it records exactly one entity at once, which is great for testing purposes. For long-time storage you should rely on the [InfluxDB component](/components/influxdb/).
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
|
|
|
|
You will have to create a [new channel](https://thingspeak.com/channels/new) on ThingSpeak and grab your Write API Key from the "API Keys" tab of the channel you want to use.
|
|
|
|
To setup the ThingSpeak component in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
thingspeak:
|
|
api_key: MY_API_KEY
|
|
id: 1337
|
|
whitelist: sensor.yr_temperature
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% configuration %}
|
|
api_key:
|
|
