Static value of a device

Hello Losant team!

I want to know the best practice for this problem.
I have a value that i need to store but this value is stored one once and when the attribute that has the value reaches 30 days this value is removed. I think that save like a tag is a correct solution, but i want to know what do you guys think.

Thanks :slight_smile:
PD: The value is a numeric constant that i need to use in a function

@Jonathan_Calderon I’m still a little unclear on the use case but storing the value on a device tag (assuming it’s associated with a device) seems like the way to go. However …

You could also manage the value in workflow storage using a Storage: Set Value and Storage: Get Value Node, if it’s being referenced in the workflow engine.

Hi Dylan. thanks for the reply.
Basically, the value is a coefficient specific to each device and must be entered by the user.
This value is typically added once and is unlikely to change after that.

I hope this clarfies a bit :slight_smile:

In that case, yes, I’d definitely store it as a tag on the device.

One question - can this value be set by multiple users, and should the value be specific to each user? If so, I would recommend a different approach - either storing the value as an Experience User tag or building a data table with to hold that information per device per user.

No, the value isn’t specific to each user. It can be changed by any user who has access to the dashboard.

Thanks for the help Dylan :slight_smile:
