I am using a DHT22 Sensor on an Arduino UNO using an Ethernet Shield to send data to Thingsworx.
My account on Thingworx is being provided through my university.
I am able to get the data on SerialCom but unable to display on the Thingworx Platform.
Any help in this matter would be very helpful!
Attaching the screenshots and code for reference.
Thank you!
CODE:

#include <DHT_U.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <SPI.h>

#define DHTPIN 2
#define DHTTYPE DHT22
DHT dht(DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);
// Enter a MAC address and IP address for your controller below.
// The IP address will be dependent on your local network:

//Interval of time at which you want the properties values to be sent to TWX server
