How do you get data outside of EISY (Export) to use in other ways?


Recommended Posts

The joys of node servers and PGX(3) is that you get "outside data" into EISY to use in programming, triggering, etc.

The next logical question is how do you get the results of some of that data needed elsewhere after EISY, back to the "outside cyber world"?

I have seen a few suggestions, and decided to start a thread to address how folks are doing just that.

How do you get data inside Eisy (like, as an example, from an integer variable) to programs outside EISY?

I understand you can use the graph.microsoft.com API to append rows of data to excel 365 workbooks but have never invested the time to better understand the API and whether it’s something that could be used for this use case leveraging an IOX network resource or an IOX network resource that calls a php script on the web server or something like that. 
 

Lots of info at url above and specific examples here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/excel-write-to-workbook

I've run into this problem as well.  I settled on Home Assistant to supplement my reporting needs.

The ISY does all the hard work but HA has everything I need for presentation. Below is my Garage Temperature State Variable.

The historical graphing is part of HA, just adding the variable in the Dashboard enables the feature.

I did this with the ISY.  I assume that the EISY would be similar.

Please look for both of my posts - the other posts went a different direction.
