Instead of using the API to loop through and fetch many series for a given app (like mapping, or HiCharts), use displays (tables, latest values)You can create a table specifically for your app which contains all the data needed and then fetch it into your own application.
Some Advantges:- You can structure the row (series) labels to be easily identifiable
- Label knockouts are available
- Single Fetch for multiple series
- The displays are server cached for speed which is tripped only when underling data actually changes
- Use glname to access multiple datasets via a single table and multiple group lists
- Use latest values to get current value, prior values and/or (%) changes
- Requires string (or jQuery) parsing of embed html (some classes to assist)
- Limit of 50 points of historical data per series for tables.
