complex Datapoint that shows max Value

Hi all

I'd like to create a complex Datapoint that shows the maximum value of a simple Datapoint of the last 24h.

Example: Simple datapoint x polls data every 2 min. I now want a complex datapoint that shows the max value of datapoint x from the last 24h. 

Is there a way to achieve this?

Regards

  • Hi Cole_McDonald 

    Thanks for your reply.The gauge widget is unfortunatly not a solution, because we need to receive alerts.

    How would I configure such a datasource to call back to the RestAPI?

  • You should be able to add a gauge widget to a dashboard with the "Show Peak" selected at 24 hours timeframe for it.

    Other option to turn that into a part of a datasource would be to have the DS call back to the RestAPI and grab the last 24 hours of metrics for that datapoint (in the case of 24 hours at 2 minute sample time... is a lot; you may run into timeouts frequently with that) and grab the highest value from that set.
