I have tried to publish data to my thingspeak channel. All is well configurated in thingspeak.
I have read the tutorial and unfortunately I'm not able to publish any data on the channel with the extension board...
I've tried manualy with my firefox browser “https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx&field1=0” and it works fine
But in the makecode program it does'nt …
My program looks like this, what is wrong ???
Any help will be much appreciated and by the way sorry for my bad english

I have seen several other recent reports of failure to publish with microbits. Im not sure why. I appreciated that ypou already tried using your browser. Next I would try posting a hard coded number like "123" or something. That will make sure its not a problem with your sensor.
Also, 2000 is a bit short to pause if you have a free account. The minimum update period is 15 seconds for free accounts. If you have a paid account every second is allowed.
