Node-red to influxdb atlas scientific

[btbr]

Hello TI,

Thank you very much for your reply.

When I initially sent my message to Influx it didn't see the value as a number and wouldn't work. It seems from another post on here that I had to change it to a number so it would graph it - see picture.

I've only been doing this three weeks so sorry for being stupid, but I don't understand what 'drop and recreate the measure' means?

I had a similar question and I learned you can use a change node, regex, or match to 'extract' the value you want. See here.
