Hi,

I am learning about Losant by showing data gathered from a [Particle.io](http://Particle.io) Argon in a time series graph. I have followed the Particle integration instructions and have a workflow where I can see the latest data from the Argon in the debug window.

I can’t figure out the next step of taking this data into a time series graph. Is there a tutorial I’ve overlooked or some concept I don’t yet understand? Perhaps integration → device → graph?

Thanks for your help.

Eric

I have this working. For anyone else who finds this:

Particle integration → JSON Decode to the change the payload data to something a device will accept. From there a time series graph can display the data.

Hey @Eric_Wilhelm,

Welcome to the Losant forums, we’re happy you’re here! 🙂

Would you be able to share the instructions you were following for integrating particle? What was the issue that you were running into before you used the [JSON Decode Node](https://docs.losant.com/workflows/logic/json-decode/)?

I’d love to learn more about your root issue. But I am very happy to hear that you were able to get things working!

Thank you,  
Heath

I used this:

I think my issue was a lack of conceptual understanding of the overall structure of data flow in Losant. Then, I had trouble with the syntax and how values are entered into several different webpages. Once I had the workflow engine, devices, and dashboards open in separate browser tabs, it was easier to get everything synced.
