    return;
  }
  Serial.print("Temperature: ");
  Serial.print(temp);
  Serial.println(" C");
  Serial.print("Humidity: ");
  Serial.print(hum);
  Serial.println(" %");
// Send data to the cloud using your preferred API
  WiFiClient client;
  client.setServer("api.yourdomain.com", 80);
  client.print("GET /api/temperature?temp=");
  client.print(temp);
  client.print("&hum=");
