ThingSpeak is a web service hosted by MathWorks that lets you collect, analyze and act on sensor data, and develop Internet of Things applications. The ThingSpeak Support Toolbox lets you use MATLAB (R2014b through R2018b) to read data from ThingSpeak and write data to ThingSpeak. For 2019a and higher, these functions are built into MATLAB so there is no need to download this toolbox.

Documentation for the functions in the toolbox can also be found here:
