I am trying to plot some data that is coming in from a Helium integration. Specifically, this is a GPS tracker.

I see the data coming in when using the inspector, but I am getting the error:

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘payload’)

Hi Thomas,

It appears that you aren’t sending anything in the payload:  
**“payload\”:\“\”,\“payload\_size\”:0,\“port\”:0,\**

The problem might be the way you’re sending the payload.
