Editing a datapoint template in a datapoint group in the developer application

Editing a datapoint template in a datapoint group in the developer application

Once a datapoint group is added to the application users can edit the datapoint templates in the datapoint groups.
Note: For datapoint templates of datapoint groups imported from the gallery, only the parsing key can be edited. However, for the datapoint templates in a custom datapoint group the name, datapoint kind, and parsing key can be modified.
To edit a datapoint template of a datapoint group in the developer application,
  1. Access the Developer Application.
  2. Click Datapoint Groups in the left pane.



  3. Select the datapoint group which has the datapoint template you want to edit. For this illustration, the datapoint group Home Automation is selected.



  4. Select the check box near the datapoint template you want to edit. For this illustration, the datapoint Window Status is selected.



  5. Click the Edit button that appears. This opens the edit datapoint form that appears.



  6. Make the necessary changes and click Update.

 
Changes made will now be updated in the datapoint template. However, these changes will not affect datapoints that were imported before the modification
