Viewing your data

Your Clever Alert system will save a reading to the log every few minutes. You can view your data as either a table or graph.

How to see your data

You view your data through the Clever Alert Dashboard. If you are not logged into the Dashboard, click here for instructions.

The graph view

When you first click on a location, this is the screen you will see.

1. The data graph

Every few minutes a new data point is added to graph. On this screen you can see, by default, seven days of data points.

You can zoom in on any section of the graph by clicking and dragging a square around the part of the graph you want to focus on with your mouse.

2. Date range presets

Quickly filter results from a selection of common date ranges.

Choose from:

  • Last 24 Hours
  • Today
  • Yesterday
  • Last 7 Days (default)
  • Last 30 Days
  • This Month
  • Last Month

3. Custom date ranges

Want to see data from a particular date range? These filters let you set a start and end time.  Just remember that retrieving a large amount of data (e.g. a couple of months) might take a little while.

4. Graph View/Table View switch

You can easily switch back and forth between seeing your data as a graph or as a table.

The Table View has has nice extra tricks, which you can read about below.

Exporting your data

Clever Alert has a whole amazing reporting engine, which we’ll cover on another page, but the Table view has a neat little trick for quick exports.

Export as what?

At the top right of each Table view you will find a button labelled Export as CSV.

CSV stands for “comma separated values”. It is a special format that can be opened by spreadsheet software – e.g. Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.

To quickly export a table of data, select the date range you want, then click the Export as CSV button. Save the generated file to your computer.
