Time Series Node

Time Series Node

The Time Series node reads from — or writes to — an InfluxDB connection. Unlike a regular Data Source, its configuration lives directly on the node rather than on a saved entity.

Setup​

  1. Add a Time Series Data node from the Inputs / Outputs section.
  2. Choose an InfluxDB connection.
  3. Enter the measurement to read or write.
  4. Choose the operation — Read or Update (write).

Reading​

  • Read limit — the maximum number of points to return (default 100; use 0 to fetch all).
  • Time range — restrict to a window using a relative preset (last 1m / 5m / 15m / 30m / 1h / 6h / 12h / 24h / 7d / 30d) or a custom start and end. Relative presets are recalculated each time the Flow runs, so a "last 24h" read always means the most recent day.
  • The node discovers the measurement's fields so you can select which to include.

Writing​

InfluxDB is append-only, so the Time Series node writes new points; it does not update, delete, or clear existing data. Incoming fields are written as the point's values.
