Method

The objects/history endpoint supports the non-standard method parameter in i3X.

This is combined with the resolution / samples parameter to control the information returned when asking for history.

The choice for method are…

raw - Results are returned at their native resolution. WARNING: in some data sources, resolution can be in excess of 20-samples-per-second.

interp (the default) - Results are broken into small time windows, and the average is returned in each window. This is extremely useful for charts or calculations, but may miss extremely fine details.

min - Shows the minimum value for each time-window. Useful for picking up any very small outages or issues.

max - Shows the maximum value for each time-window. Useful for picking up surges or other extremely brief issues.

The default mode can be changed in i3X settings.
