Information about free account

1

i need some information abou the free account:

  • i know that i can only use 2 devices , but each device how many fields can have? i mean how many sensor can be registered with one devices?

  • Given a dashboard Device, can i update the data at least onces per second ? or there is a limit of data trasmission for free account?

  • is mandatory to use data bucket? a Data bucket has the same function of a time series db? how much data it can store?

  • with a free account can i send e-mails alert or something like that?

The guys at Thinger.io are very generous, you can feed as much data per device as your device can provide.

You can update as fast as every second, but be aware: time series with more than 1000 points will strain your browser and their server dramatically if updated every second.

“Free” Data buckets may only be updated >= 60 seconds.
You need them, if you want to be able to recall data existing before your started the dashboard instance.
They can only store one year of data on free accounts, which can be a lot, by the way…

Yes, you can send eMails alerts on free accounts.

Error (400): cannot create more alarms_rules

Are alarms/alerts available on free accounts still?

Thanks!

Hi,

I think free accounts does not have alarms feature… That could be a feature exclusive for paid plans.

Hi Thinger.io can you give at least 1 Alarm for the free account users!
I do not make any revenue, just using it to impress my friends …showing what can be done with IOT but with no Alarm is difficult to show the impact!
Please!

You can define Endpoints to e.g. send an eMail on free accounts.

Thanks rin67630. Yes I’m aware about Endpoints but I’d like to send the email if one of my variables reaches certain value, so I need an alarm to trigger the Endpoint…

Hi,

Endpoints can be triggered from devices, even you can stablish the threshold as a variable to modify it from the cloud console.

thanks @ega will need to study more about how to control it from the device!

Hi,

Check the input resources documentation → https://docs.thinger.io/coding-guide#input-resources

This will help you to create resources on the device that you can control from cloud console, at the device’s api page, here you have the device’s api documentation → https://docs.thinger.io/features/devices-administration#device-api

Hope this helps
