Ability to import data of an instance historical data export, and force applying that to a new instance in another datasource.
Hi there. I want to request the ability to import data into an instance. Specifically, I am hoping for a way to add historicaldata to a new instance that is monitoring the same objects, with the same metrics labeled as the exact same datapoints, just the source is different. In our case we see a need to create a new datasourcewhich captures the same data with our old devices and a bunch of new ones, and more in the future. The old datasourceused SNMP for monitoring, and we wish to replicate that into the new datasource, but make it all API calls via script, since the new ones do not support SNMP. For proper monitoring and troubleshooting of the devices we need to have the historical data for the old instance of old devices, while being in the same datasourceas the new ones. For this very reason, we would like to see the ability to add historical data to a new instance after it has been exported from a separate and old instance, especially if the datapoint names match. I have a feeling this particular case study might be relevant to other users as well.4Views0likes0CommentsONE CLICK CSV export
ADDITIONAL note: I'd like a ONE click button option to export the current view's background data straight to .CSV I'm seriously unhappy with the flow of the new reporting modules and I run through it (saving a copy or overwriting the settings) 20 times before I get EXACTLY what I want the data to be in my csv. If I could pull up an event source, or a Graph view....>SEE the data that I want there for the Time frame I am searching....and hit ONE button (one time...one click) and have the system export THAT specific data to .csv formatted out put, it would stream line my weekly, daily and monthly reporting efforts immensely.4Views0likes1CommentCSV exports with tabular data
Most often, when people export to a csv or excel format their intent is to receive table data in a tabular format because they're going to pivot it out, chart it, or conduct some sort of analytics/BI function. It would be nice if your csv exports didn't require manipulation of the data to remove erroneous data/whitespace for consumability as a table datasource. This is specifically a problem in Website Overview reports.1View2likes1Comment
