Previously with IRIS the web portal had an ‘event’ export feature which would download a specifiable date range to a .CSV file. I then manipulated the data i needed in a spreadsheet.
Now with Smartthings i use the ‘event’ list in ‘Groovy IDE’, scrolling down the events page by page to the last date i captured the data, select-all and copy this to a WORD doc (it creates a table in Word but not in Excel (!?)), then copy the .doc table into Excel. I’m then back to where i would have been with the IRIS .CSV file.
This is good data, but this is really a tedious, time-consuming process and its easy to make a slip and have to start all over!
best regards

prjct92eh2 JIMMY , - many thanks for the pointer. I had never bothered with this menu item, assuming it just carried my profile data.
My iphone constantly failed the download, but my iPad worked great.
The event.csv and notification.csv both have great data (over 61,000 rows in events.csv) - except for two critical items : - the date and time of the event/notice !
So i have no idea of when the 61,000+ events actually occured !? (- unless the ‘epoch’ field has some meaning i’m not grasping ? e.g : ‘1573656726000’).
Where the epoch value is in A1. Then set the format of the cell with the formula to date/time. This will give you the date/time in UTC. You can then adjust for your time zone.
Maybe. We’re currently working on getting sign-off from necessary parties. Once we get that we should be ready to go. If it gets too close to the holidays we may delay until the new year as planned vacations would interfere with support.
The window for release this year has closed. We’re still working on getting the needed approvals for release and even if we got those today, it’s too close to holiday time off to responsibly release this year. Hopefully January but as always, no promises.
Will the Rules API run locally directly upon realase of the platform or will that be a future update?
And, will all the current WebCore´s be automaticly converted to Rules API (if features used in Webcore is handled in Rules API of course) or is something that needs to be done manually no matter what?
One last thing, is the new device registration process for Partners something that can/will be used by the community to also register “homegrown” drivers as a subset of community based drivers, or even just locally stored? or will that still be handled like todays Device Handlers?
Not currently a Hub user at all but running localy was something that had me looking at Hubitat as my first way in as i also like the idea of creating rules from scratch in code so the direction you are taking did sway me over from the last SDC, looks like a great future to build on, especially with the new Alliance platform coming together.
May I also add, and i know this is probably not the right place for feature requests but, i notice Homey as an example also uses 433Mhz communication and a lot of legacy products and contractor type products are still using that type of protocol.
Could potentially see a gain in adding 433 support and the ability to create event listeners and commands using the same Rules API, just a thought.
I have been trying to access the browser based portal for months now! Are there any updates on this as to when it would be available to all or if you are letting more users access?
I am slightly worried on the future of smartthings as any new feature or announcement seem to be either slow or very quiet…
Latest update: not great news this time… we’re still waiting on sign-off from legal. While that’s still in progress it’s been decided that a full launch of SmartThings for Web is going to be delayed until at least the second half of 2020 in order to add support for more devices and add more of the functionality you want to see.
I know it’s a bummer, but I’ve been assured by the powers that be that launch is still going to happen. It’s just a lot later than any of us originally wanted.
Note: If you already have access you can keep using it. Also, I’m hoping to find a way to let more people in but as always, no promises or timelines.
