Data Stream history
Graphical representation of data stream information
How it works
Widget Menu
From here, the following actions can be performed:
- Open device information allows for the opening of a temporary dashboard associated with the selected entity
- Edit allows the editing of the selected entity
- Historical data displays the chart data in a list format (requires selecting a grouping parameter)
- Download downloads the data displayed in the chart in CSV format
- Visualization toggles between different data visualization options on the chart
- Capture screen: Takes a screenshot of the widget.
- Duplicate widget: Creates a duplicate of the widget on the dashboard.
- Copy widget: Copies the widget to another dashboard.
- Change widget location: Moves the widget to another dashboard.
Configuration
General
-
Refresh Frequency: allows configuring the data refresh frequency displayed in the list.
-
Title: widget title. It can be configured to remain fixed in the widget or only be displayed when it receives focus.
-
About: widget description in Markdown format.
-
Resource Type + EntityKey(s) specifies the resource type and identifier of the entities to be queried (not required)
Columns from which to extract data to display on the graph must be configured. A graph will be generated for each column.
For each piece of data, the following can be configured:
- Alias a representative name for the column data on the chart
- Color to distinguish it on the graph
- Intensity allows for the graph to change shades depending on the value
- Unit indicates the measurement being displayed on the corresponding axis
- Chart Type toggles between different data visualization possibilities. Can also be configured globally for all metrics.
- Axis editor enables the configuration of the Y-axis on the chart to assign discrete values to specific values
- Formatter tool is a utility that processes each data point, allowing for its modification and/or calculation before it is displayed on the graph. For instance, it can convert discrete data into numerical data for representation.
- Reduce tool allows code-based reformulation of series data by grouping and similar operations.
- Remove removes the data stream from the chart
Advanced
From here, you can configure the widget’s behavior while plotting the graph as well as when it is opened within a temporary dashboard.
- Prevent interpolation allows the avoidance of data interpolation where possible
- Statistical data graph displays a panel with basic statistical values
- Data Stream template activates the override of the EntityKey in the widget when the dashboard is opened in a device template, taking a data stream from the entity itself at the time of loading
Visualization
From here, you can change some visual aspects of the widget.
- Background color allows setting a distinctive color for the widget
- Hide details header panel hides the upper information panel of the widget, freeing up that space
- Show basic stats in chart displays basic statistics on the chart data as long as only one series is being represented
