I am confused that in the CONNECT packet structure for MQTT, 3 parameters are required: ClientID , USER and Password (Assume flags TRUE) . But from my account on Thingspeak, I could not find and distinguise various API KEYs and IDs, whichone to use where ?
My Account on Thingspeak:
Channel:
  1. ChannelID = 153xxxx
  2. WRITE API KEY: UEL......
  3. . READ API KEY: R46......
Click on Profile:
  1. Username: mwa.....
  2. User API Key: AFKB......
MQTT: I created a MQTT device with above Channel. It has :
  1. ClientID: CCw.......
  2. Usename: CCw.......
  3. Password: 5O.....
Now, which parameters required in CONNECT packet, PUBLISH packet and SUBSCRIBE packet ?

Have a look at the MQTT API page. The MQTT basics pageshows you the parameters you need as well as the publish and subscribe pages.
