Hi, I have an arduino uno with esp-01 . If i check the serial monitor it shows that the first data sent after mqttmydevices.com,1883 is corrupted.
as below.
The arduino shows up as online but no data on dashboard.
Ive replaced both the arduino and esp01,same result. Ive connected to different wifi ame problem.

first make sure you get the esp connected and sending simple data using this code:
/*
This sketch connects to the Cayenne server using an ESP8266 WiFi module as a shield connected via a hardware serial to an Arduino.
The CayenneMQTT Library is required to run this sketch. If you have not already done so you can install it from the Arduino IDE Library Manager.
Steps:
1. Install the ESP8266SerialLibrary.zip library via the Arduino IDE (Sketch->Include Library->Add .ZIP Library) from the Cayenne extras/libraries
folder (e.g. My Documents\Arduino\libraries\CayenneMQTT\extras\libraries) to compile this example.
2. Connect the ESP8266 as a shield to your Arduino. This example uses the Serial hardware serial pins available on the UNO.
3. Set the Cayenne authentication info to match the authentication info from the Dashboard.
4. Set the network name and password.
5. Compile and upload the sketch.
6. A temporary widget will be automatically generated in the Cayenne Dashboard. To make the widget permanent click the plus sign on the widget.

Thanks I tried that code and it shows corrupt data sent again.
I cant attach the actual serial monitor in anything but a jpeg because the corrupted data stops the text program from working.
I can attach the picture and hope you can see it fails after the mqqt part.
The arduino comes on line but no widget.
It goes off and on line but never any widget appearing

Set the esp baud rate manually to 9600. there are several tutorials on the internet on how to do it.
Upload the below code:

Hi,
I set up the esp01 to 9600 and uploaded the revised sketch.
I can see it doing exactly the same and sending a small amount of corrupot data evry time it does that mqtt 1883 part .
As i have tried 2 arduino uno boards,2 esp01 modules and used a seperate 3.2 volt supply for the esp.I think it must be something else but I have searched the internet without finding a similar problem.If it doesnt work I will try a different type of board ,maybe a Nano instead.
i just tried with the same setup and same code and it works for me. the corrupt data is the AT command the arduino uno is sending to esp for connection. looking at the image you send it looks like it is disconecting soon after publishing. can you try adding a new device using Bring your own thing and change the client_id in your code.
Thanks, I will try that.
I have about 8 instances of arduino waiting to connect but they dont go when i remove them.
Is there a quick way of doing that .
Thanks again
Thanks, Ive tried that now and it gives the same result. I also shutdown the other project i was running just in case it was due to that. Still same corrupt data. Im beginning to think it must be the batch of ESP01 boards i have purchased…
It obviously not your end and everything else works. .
I decided enough time had been spent on that issue. It must be my end. I have moved on to using a Nodemcu v3 device which added under bring own thing straight away.
Are there any sketches to publish data from it. Its running temp sensor reading from ds18b20 and i can see it working in the serial monitor.
Thanks again for the support
Thanks, When ive tried that before it ends up with unuseable esp01 modules. There are so many ways of doing things on internet and ive yet to find a clear tutorial. Seems it should be easy but maybe not.
i am not sure what is the issue with your esp, but it works fine at my end. you can try to connect them to an arduino mega serial1 where the library is most stable.
