I am uploading data from a range of sensors to the IBM Watson cloud and trying to build an app using this application. How do make the sensor inputs into variables and see if they exceed a certain threshold value and add to a counter. I was thinking something like this but I may be on the wrong path …

[image] bakman2: You have to check if you actually get an object/key that you are expecting. Always worthwhile - note however he is still sending a value rather than an object In Def sprint code (which is wired to Analyzing Sprints Code) he returns... return {payload : sprint } There is no…

No idea. But if you add debug nodes like I suggested twice before, you could figure it out yourself.

any idea on reseting the values to 0 though?

Like I said, restarting node-red will clear values. You can also use an inject node linked to a change node to set global.count to zero. Can I also suggest you do some reading and check out the cookbook . Try the examples. Learn to walk before you try to run. And don't forget to add debug nodes af…

Do you have any idea why my variables for kicks and sprints might be getting confused because currently they are printing as the same number as you can see in the screenshot. what should i do?

You have not acknowledged that advice yet ask us for what could be happening in your flows. We cannot tell anything from a screenshot with no information …

Here is my latest code. As you can see the kicks and sprints seem to be getting confused in the output for some reason. This project is for a summer program that I am doing in high school at UC Davis, that is why I have very basic knowledge and require substantial assistance. All your help is apprec…

[Screenshot%20(10)] How come two different variables have the same value?

What do the messages coming from the IBM IoT node look like? From the screenshot, I see you have a Debug node attached to it, but it appears to be configured to only show msg.payload.d.Level - so we cannot see what the full message looks like. You asked why the kicks and sprints values were 'gettin…

You are storing the two different values in the same context variable. So yes, you need to change something.
