xively - COSM feed receiving updates but graph is flatlined at zero -


context:

my first project cosm recording datapoints electric meter. when @ graph of feed, it's flatlined @ 0 though datapoints appear correctly received.

any idea what's wrong, or things should in order debug it?

more info:

when debug feed, see receiving approximately 8 api requests per minute expected.

here's instance of received datapoint viewed cosm's 'debug feed' interface. note in particular response 200 [ok], , request body has sensible timestamp , non-zero value:

200 post /api/v2/feeds/129722/datastreams/1/datapoints 06-05-2013 | 08:16:54 +0000  request headers version http/1.0 host    api.cosm.com x-request-start 1367828214422267 x-apikey    <expunged> accept-encoding gzip, deflate, compress accept  */* user-agent  python-requests/1.2.0 cpython/2.7.3 linux/3.6.11+ origin    request body {"at": "2013-05-06t08:16:57", "value": 164.0}  response headers x-request-id    245ee3ca6bd99efd156bff2416404c33f4bb7f0f cache-control   max-age=0 content-type    application/json; charset=utf-8 content-length  0  response body [no body] 

update

even though docs specify json default, explicitly added ".json" post url (/api/v2/feeds/129722/datastreams/1/datapoints.json) didn't appear make difference.

update 2

i enclosed "value" value in strings, request body reads (for example):

{"at": "2013-05-06t15:37:06", "value": "187.0"} 

still behaving same: see updates in debug view, zeros reported in graph view.

update 3

i tried looking @ data using api rather cosm-supplied graph. guess datapoints not being stored reason (despite 200 ok return status). if put url in web browser:

http://api.cosm.com/v2/feeds/129722.json?interval=0 

i in response:

{"id":129722,  "title":"rainforest automation raven",  "private":"false",  "tags":["power"],  "feed":"https://api.cosm.com/v2/feeds/129722.json",  "status":"frozen",  "updated":"2013-05-06t05:07:30.169344z",  "created":"2013-05-06t00:16:56.701456z",  "creator":"https://cosm.com/users/fearless_fool",  "version":"1.0.0",  "datastreams":[{"id":"1",                  "current_value":"0",                  "at":"2013-05-06t05:07:29.982986z",                  "max_value":"0.0",                  "min_value":"0.0",                  "unit":{"type":"derivedsi","symbol":"w","label":"watt"}}],  "location":{"disposition":"fixed","exposure":"indoor","domain":"physical"} } 

note status listed "frozen" (last update received > 15 minutes ago) despite fact debug tool showing 7 or 8 updates per minute. datapoints going?

resolved. @calum @ cosm.com support kindly pointed out, wasn't sending formed request. sending following json:

{"at": "2013-05-06t08:16:57", "value": 164.0} 

when should have sending:

{   "datapoints":[     {"at": "2013-05-06t08:16:57", "value": 164.0}   ] } 

calum points out batch several points @ time cut down number of transactions. i'll that, now, suffice fixing body of request made start working.
