The data table report item can display tabular data in both horizontal and vertical tables. This makes it possible to display readings in a textual format.
The number of rows or columns, depending on the layout, is dependent on the report time period.
You can choose to report snapshots or period averages in the data table.
Snapshots - A snapshot is the closest data sample to the cell. For example, if you have a Daily report and there are two samples at 14:59 and 15:02, the data shown for the cell at 15:00 is the sample at 14:59.
Period Average - The period average option averages of all samples within each period and uses that value for the respective cell.
These two powerful options provide you with good control of how to present different types of data. Snapshots are more interesting for some types of data and period averages are more interesting for others.
