How data reduction algorithm works?

ysapiyev — Fri, 26 Jan 2018 07:18:15 GMT

hi everyone,

I have a problem with data reduction algorithm. As I understood from the tutorials, data algorithm works to limit data selection.

Here is my code in capabilities

"values": {
				"group": {
                "by": "date",
                    "select": [		
						
						{
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value1"
                            }
                        },
						{
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value1_unit"
                            }
                        },
                        {
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value2"
                            }
                        },{
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value2_unit"
                            }
                        },
                        {
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value3"
                            }
                        },{
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value3_unit"
                            }
                        },
                        {
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value4"
                            }
                        },{
                            "bind": {
                                "to": "value4_unit"
                            }
                        }

                    ]
					,
					"dataReductionAlgorithm": {
						"bottom": {
						 "count": 1
					 }
					}
					}
                }

By logic, it should group my values by date and select latest, since I'm choosing bottom 1. However, I get all of the data. Where is the problem? Or is there more detailed manual for algorithm.

You have to specify dataReduction for categories as well to limit amount of data rows.

@v-viig,

I used same data reduction function for categories, with bottom and count equal to 1. However, I still get full amount of data.

It works well to me. DataView contains single data-row for each date.

Can you share DataView object that you get in the update method?
