I’m using a Feather ESP8266 with a LoRa Notecard and Notecarrier F. While I can successfully connect to the notehub (it shows up under devices), I’m running into an issue when trying to send data to the notehub and I can’t update any new events.
Interestingly, I can send “data” through the website terminal without a problem, but when I try to do it through my Arduino code and the microcontroller, I get this error:
`[INFO] {"err":"template for sensors.qo is not found"}`
I tried running the pseudo sensor code given on the “Collecting Sensor Data” guide (using C/C++ Arduino), but I get the same error.
Has anyone encountered this issue before, or does anyone know what might be causing this error? Thanks in advance for any insights!

Hey @Dan,
Sorry about this.
You’re getting that error because there’s no template defined for the `sensors.qo` Notefile, and the Notecard for LoRa requires a template for every Notefile you use.
You can fix it by running this on your Notecard:
```json
{
"req":"note.template",
"file":"sensors.qo",
"port":12,
"format":"compact",
"body":{"temp":14.1,"humidity":14.1}
}
```
Or this in your firmware:
```c
J *req = notecard.newRequest("note.template");
if (req != NULL)
{
JAddStringToObject(req, "file", "sensors.qo");
JAddNumberToObject(req, "port", 12);
JAddStringToObject(req, "format", "compact");
J *body = JAddObjectToObject(req, "body");
if (body)
{
JAddNumberToObject(body, "temp", 14.1);
JAddNumberToObject(body, "humidity", 14.1);
}
notecard.sendRequest(req);
}
```
I’m going to get this added to the tutorial itself later this week. Appreciate you reaching out and letting us know.

Great, I’ll give that a try. Thank you
