    Hi @Archana,

    My understanding is (and I just checked with a colleague on this) that 'Data Series' is a consolidation function used when there is only a single instance present in the widget - where as 'Aggregate' is only used when we have multiple instances configured in the widget.

    Our 'DataSource Graphs' documentation touches on the definitions of the available consolidation functions.

    Hope that helps(!)

    Best,

    Kerry

Hi @Archana,

Apologies for the delay on this one. I checked with our product team - the 'Data Series' field affects the History Graph that's available on the other tab of the Gauge Widget. Take a look at these screenshots:
