Device Groups
A group makes it easier to refer to a list of devices with similar parameters and intended uses.
Configuration
We define it by specifying:
- the group’s unique identifier (EUI)
- name
- a comma-separated list of measurement names
- team—a list of user logins with read-only access to this group
- administrators—a list of usernames for users with full access to this group
We assign a device to a group by specifying the group’s name when defining that device.
Notes:
- Data from devices assigned to a group may be visible on dashboards that display data for that group. In particular, data from devices in the group displayed on a publicly accessible dashboard automatically becomes available to anyone who knows the address of that dashboard.
- When assigning a device to a group, pay attention to the list of measurement names. If the list of measurement names defined for the group is not a subset of the corresponding list in the device being assigned, this assignment will most likely not be
useful.*
Downloading Group Data
Data transmitted by devices in a group can be downloaded as a CSV file. The range of data that can be downloaded is limited to 31 days prior to the selected end date.
