the open source heart rate monitor can be connected to an esp 8266 microcontroller

in the Arduino code of the 8266, whe can enter the Wifi name of our wifi router and connect to it

in the Arduino code of the 8266, we can enter there the ip adress of thingsspeak

ThingSpeak is an open-source software written in Ruby which allows users to communicate with internet enabled devices.^[2] It facilitates data access, retrieval and logging of data by providing an API to both the devices and social network websites. ThingSpeak was originally launched by ioBridge in 2010 as a service in support of IoT applications.^[3]

There is a Home Assistant Integration availalbe for ThinkSpeak:

it records only one entity at once for testing purposes. For long-time storage you should rely on the InfluxDB component of Home Assistant. With that is possible to store sensor data in InfluxDB.
