Connect an Arduino Microcontroller to a Web Database!
This tutorial goes over how to set up an Arduino IDE, upload a sample sketch, and connect a NodeMCU Microcontroller to a Kintone Web Database.
While the device used in this tutorial is an ESP8266 Microcontroller, this tutorial is applicable to nearly all Arduino devices with Wi-Fi capabilities.
Similarly, while the Web Database used in this tutorial is Kintone, changing the contents of the HTTP Request allows for any REST-API-based web database to be used.
