Does anybody know if there is a way to chart temperature of a certain sensor over X amount of days just to see the fluctuations in a line graph? Has anybody created a smart up like this yet? Or know of an easy way to do it?
Numerous use to be able to do this, but the creator closed the project. It was nice and simple to setup, plus has IFTTT integration. A more sophisticated alternative I dabbled with is GroveStreams. The free version let’s you log data from (I think?) 20 devices into a dashboard. If you search the forums for it, you’ll find a bunch of informative threads. One thing I didn’t like was that I had to pull up a web browser to access the data, so I wrote a really simple smartapp that pulls up the GroveStreams dashboard in the SmartThings app. Here’s the code to copy-paste into the ide:

I’m going to try this and see how it works. awesome. Thank you
There is an integration with initialstate.com that works quite well. I used it compare thermostat temperature vs sensors in different rooms on a floor over 1 week time. I think 25k data points/month are free.
Hey GuyInATie-
I’m brand new to creating SmartApps, and I’m having some trouble creating yours so I can see my GroveStream as a dashboard within ST itself – would you be willing to help me a little bit?
Thanks!

Sure thing. What seems to be the problem?
