Hello,
since some time a script is not working anymore, it is timing out. I could track down the problem to thingSpeakRead. I am reading some data to be visualized by this:
[loc_comp, timeStamps] = thingSpeakRead(readChannelID, 'Field', fieldID1, 'ReadKey', readAPIKey, DateRange=[(datetime - days(1)), datetime]);
It was working this way approx. until April and then I ignored it first. Now I'd like to use that visualization again but can't it get it to work. If I replace the channel read by some fixed test data everything else is running as before. Just the channel read is not working ...
channel id, field number and read key have not changed...
Any ideas? The Timeout=xx parameter did not help as well ...
Thanks,
Jürgen
Edit:
i also tried e.g.
[loc_comp, timeStamps] = thingSpeakRead(123456, Fields=[6], ReadKey='MySecretKey', NumPoints=15, Timeout=60);
with the same timeout error appearing ..

Hi there,
I found some time to test my script under Mathlab R2022a (probably I should update ;-) ). My script is running 100% ok there, but not anymore directly under thingspeak ... Why???

I think there is something else going on. Perhaps comment out all other lines and evaluate just the thingSpeakRead. If that works fine, there is some other line causing your script to error.
