Bruno Morra asked 2 years ago

Hi,
I’m following with great interest your tutorials that really helped me to solve a lot of problems.
Following the tutorial on micro-python I was able to send through IFTTT data from a BME280 connected to an ESP32.
However I’m not able to reach this objective: 1) send these emails in an automatic wayat fixed intervals ( let’s say every hour) and 2) put the ESP32 in deepsleep when it doesn’t send the emails.
Would you be so kind to explain me if and how this is possible ?
Thanks a lot in advance
Bruno

Hi.
Do you have the micropython ebook?
Take a look at the deep sleep section. You can define for how long you want your board to sleep. When it wakes up, it will run the code from the start, and so if you have the code to send the email, it will send the email when the ESP32 wakes up.
This will solve both of your problems.
Let me know if you need further help.

Sara
