Hello,
This is my first post in this forum and I've learned enough about Node-Red on my own to be dangerous. I've gone down a delightfully convoluted rabbit hole to basically try to graph out various information coming out of my Hubitat hub. I certainly didn't design it, I'm just following footsteps and trying to debug along the way.
The project overview is here: Hubitat > NodeRed > MySQL > Grafana (LONG READ) - Integrations - Hubitat perhaps somebody here is familiar with this project or perhaps somebody here is familiar with a less invasive solution but at the end of the day this is a wonderful learning opportunity for me that I've enjoyed.
The flow I used:

I'm fairly handy with this kind of stuff and some light guidance will go a long way with me. I'm sure I've come to the correct place of enthusiasts to help me 
This being my first post here, I did read some of the tips for making a valuable post. I hope I provided enough info to at least convey to somebody where I am at and the statement of the problem in the correct format. If there's better ways I should be providing information, let me know; I'm flexible.
At the end of the day, what I am asking for is help with how to read/act upon the errors I'm seeing.
