Im a teacher and I have a few students doing a project for me. Im planning on putting a 64x64 web enabled screen in a display cabinet in the school. We're able to display different images on it. I would like for people walking by to scan a QR code that would take them to the AdaFRUIT dashboard and they could interact with the screen - EG: pick a specific image.
Before we get to that - we have an LED connected to a MKR1010 and a dashboard - The dashboards owner can turn on and off the LED no problem. He can make the dashboard public and anyone can see the status of the LED turning on and off but they cannot press the pushbutton on the dashboard - Is it possible to do this?
Thanks for any help,
Tim,

I just tried and found the same thing you did. in order to control you seem to need account access. Maybe you could just make a dummy account. If a student abused it or changed passwords, you just make a new one?

Depending on if the device was on a network they could access, it could have it's own webserver to interact with.
I found a simple example on Arduino's website...

They would not be able to do this, shared dashboards only share their data.Before we get to that - we have an LED connected to a MKR1010 and a dashboard - The dashboards owner can turn on and off the LED no problem.

If the person you shared it with is viewing the Dashboard with an Adafruit IO account, they'll have full access to view the live streaming data from feeds on the dashboard. What you see - they see.
Though, there are some limitations. If you are viewing someone else's dashboard, you're not able to modify it by moving blocks around, resizing blocks, or adding to the blocks on the page. The blocks (and the dashboard layout) are static and belong to the person who created the dashboard.
We have some resources on this topic:
