Starting to get confident with HA now and trying to import data from influxdb (external server) that is collecting a load of data from arduinos/esps and RTL433 sources.
When I import the data (snippet below), it does the import and displays the figures correctly, however, I am not sure I am configuring the data type correctly as I get the “history” as a horizontal line with 100s of different colours rather than a graph of the values.
- platform: influxdb
scan_interval: 5
api_version: 2
host: [not telling]
port: 8086
ssl: false
token: [not telling]
organization: homeorg
bucket: diversion
queries_flux:
- group_function: last
unique_id: "water_tank_temp"
name: "Main Water Tank Temperature"
query: >
filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "main_water_tank")
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "temperature")
range_start: "-5m"
value_template: "{{ '%.1f' | format(value|round(2)|float) }}"
- group_function: last
unique_id: "small_water_tank_temp"
name: "Small Water Tank Temperature"
query: >
filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "water_tank")
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "temperature")
range_start: "-5m"
value_template: "{{ '%.1f' | format(value|round(2)|float) }}"
