In the path specified above, replace the {DEVICE_LABEL} and {VARIABLE_LABEL} keys with the unique labels of the Ubidots device and variable you wish to send data to. If the specified device and/or variable do not exist, they will be created automatically.

`{
		"value": VALUE, "timestamp": TIMESTAMP, "context": {"key": CONTEXT_VALUE}}
}`

`[
		{
			"value": VALUE, "timestamp": TIMESTAMP, "context": {"key": CONTEXT_VALUE}}
		},
    {
			"value": VALUE, "timestamp": TIMESTAMP, "context": {"key": CONTEXT_VALUE}}

    ...
