For our tutorial, we will use the [Cloud Blink Template](https://app.arduino.cc/templates/cloud-blink) that will illustrate how to control an Arduino Board’s LED through a dashboard in the Arduino Cloud. This is a great template if you want to get started with the Arduino Cloud since it works with all boards. After you have completed the installation, you can modify the sketch and dashboard freely.

***Note: If this is your first time using the Arduino Cloud, you will be prompted to install the Create Agent. This software facilitates communication between your browser and Arduino board. Simply install it as you would any other program. For detailed instructions on installing the Create Agent, click [here](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/360014869820-Install-the-Arduino-Create-Agent).***
Above the `Use Template` button, you can find information on how many [Things](https://docs.arduino.cc/arduino-cloud/cloud-interface/things), [Variables](https://docs.arduino.cc/arduino-cloud/cloud-interface/variables) and [Dashboards](https://docs.arduino.cc/arduino-cloud/cloud-interface/dashboard-widgets) are associated with this template. The Arduino Cloud platform will handle the creation of these IoT components along with setting up the device and network for the selected template.
