ESP8266 Community Forum

Good morning
I am trying to implement a project as described here: "https://www.jaycar.com.au/wifi-relay-controller"
I am having trouble with the ESP8266 side of things, specifically I do not get the "ESP8266 Sketch Data Upload " menu option on Arduino IDE Tools Menu
To do this I understand I need to install "ESP8266 Data-Upload tool" as described here "https://github.com/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin" (and several other places).
Despite MANY attempts, I do not get the Data Upload prompt in the IDE

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks
Ross

Are you seeing any error message?

Which version of the Arduino IDE?
This menu option doesn't exist in version 2.xx

It's an optional plugin for the Arduino IDE, not a standard option.
