Tables For Data Automation

 Instead of using the API to loop through and fetch many series for a given app (like mapping, or HiCharts), you can just use displays (tables, latest values)

Just create a table specifically for your app which contains all the data needed and then use AJAX to fetch it.

 Some Advantges:

• You can mark the row (series) labels to easily identify their data
• Label knockouts are available
• Just one fetch for multiple series
• The displays are server-cached for speed
• A GroupList parameter (glname=... on a table gives access to multiple datasets
• A LatestValues display gives you current values, prior values and/or (%) changes

 Remember:

• Use jQuery (or similar library) to parse the structured classes in the display and get the data values
• There is a limit of 50 points of historical data per series for tables.
