Arducam images to web

[Kade-t]

Pardon any stupidity as I am a novice. I'm working on a project where I need to stream live video to a thingspeak url. I am using an arducam. Since the arducam captures images and stores them into a temp folder, I was thinking that I could just send 30 images per second to the url to simulate a live video feed.

1) Is it possible to build a VI to send images from my computer to a thingspeak url?

2) What functions would I use to do so?

I've looked into the HTTP, FTP, and TCP/IP functions but none of them seem to be quite what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance.

If I search for ThingSpeak HTTP API or ThinkSpeak Rest API I find a page in the ThinkSpeak documentation that describes how to Read Data and Write Data using HTTP Get, Post, Put, and Delete calls. I am not familiar with the ThingSpeak Rest API but it looks like you could use the LabVIEW HTTP Client VIs to talk to the service. It may also be valuable to check the update interval limit in the ThingSpeak API to see if it supports the update rate you want to attempt.
