Home Automation using PICSimLab & Blynk | Part 3 – Blynk Template & Auth Token Setup
This part of my IoT Home Automation project explains how to connect the system with the Blynk IoT Platform.
In this module, I have shown:
✔ How to create a new template on Blynk Web Dashboard
✔ How to find Template ID, Template Name, and Auth Token
✔ How to add these credentials into the code for cloud connection

🛠 Steps Covered in this Part:
1️⃣ Log in to Blynk IoT Platform
2️⃣ Create a new Template (Device Type)
3️⃣ Copy:
Template ID
Template Name
Auth Token
4️⃣ Paste these values into the code (in setup() / header section)
5️⃣ Save and upload to integrate with Blynk Cloud

📂 Files Updated in this Part:
main.h or main.cpp – Blynk credentials added
Wi-Fi credentials + Blynk template details configured

💡 What this enables:
✅ Device gets connected to Blynk Cloud
✅ Ready for mobile app control and monitoring
✅ IoT system becomes accessible through internet
