Assign metrics in the Device Management Service

Before you can use the Time Series Data Service, you need to register a device on Proficloud.io and unlock the metrics.

There are 20 free metrics in your basic package, which are enough for smaller projects. To unlock metrics on a device, the device must be displayed online on Proficloud.io at least once so that Proficloud.io knows what metrics the device offers.

In the Device Management service, click on the device whose metrics you want to use in the Time Series Data service and click on [Service] section.

Before you can use the Data of the Device in the Time Series Data Service you need to assign metrics in the Device Management Service.
Click to enlarge.

In this tab you will see below the number of metrics you have assigned to other devices (and also the free quota), as well as the number of metrics available for this device.
Clicking on [Assign Metrics] opens the window where you can select the metrics you want to see in the Time Series Data Service. After the selection you simply click on [Assign Metrics] and save your selection.

In the same window you can now click on [Go to Time Series Data Service] and you will be linked directly to the device template of this device in the Time Series Data Service.
