<![CDATA[UIFlow USB Mode Questions]]>I have a few questions on USB mode on M5StackC.

  • Is USB mode only for UIFlow offline application?
  • After I switched to USB mode, the unit display an APIKEY. What is it for? I run UIFlow offline application and it basically connect via COM port.

The Api key is for connecting your stick c to the online version of uiflow (flow.m5stack.com) in the settings menu you can enter your apikey and switch from m5stack unit to stick c unit

The interesting thing is in USB mode you still get an apikey. I tried entering that key in the online version of UIFlow and it is not working...

It wont work because in USB mode the M5Stack has not connected over the wifi and so the online UIFlow cannot find it.
This is a bug or a feature of the upcoming WebUSB function coming soon.

Thanks, lets hope it is a feature for the online version of UIFlow instead of a bug :)
