More time intervals for device data usage graph

Gordon Wells
It would be useful to have a wider selection of time intervals for the "Device - Data Usage" graph. Currently there are only "Last Hour", "Current Month" and "Last Month". I would like to have "Last 6 hours", "Current Day" and "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", etc. for example. Thank you.

Rather than create a new request, I would like to cast a vote for this particular item. Specifically at least the "past 24 hours" should be provided. Our devices only connect periodically and thus don't show up as connected most of the time. In some cases they may only connect once or twice per day. Therefore, the past hour is generally empty and the past month does not provide sufficient granularity to be useful. Past 48 hours and past week would be helpful, but the past 24 hours is critical. I understand that this information is available on data streamer, however we aren't ready to implement this yet.

Hi Gordon Wells
My name is Pasha and I'm emnify Product manager. I'm trying to understand how this particular options would help you in your process.
As for your request to add more time intervals, can you share more info on how this time intervals would affect your workflows and what decisions you want to take based on those?
Also in reports section we have "Traffic per day" report. I'm curious if you use it and would you also need same time intervals as filter options for this report?

Pasha: I'm currently in the evaluation and development process so I'm trying to optimize my application's data usage. I've only been using the Dashboard to monitor my application so it's only possible to see the data for the last hour, or else current or previous month, so if I want to monitor the data usage hourly throughout a full day of testing it's not possible on the Dashboard, which is why a "Last 6 hours" and/or "Current Day" option would be helpful.
However, I wasn't aware of the "Reports" section you mention, where I see it is possible to see the hourly and daily data for a custom data range. If this report data is updated hourly I think this would already suit my needs. However, it might also be handy to have an hourly graph for the current day on the Dashboard as well.
Thank you.
