Hi,
I would like to request a feature for the map widget to show multipel devices on a map when using the blueprint dashboards. For now I have to run an analysis script that creates a new device that stores all the gps information in one bucket from all my gps devices to display all the gps devices on the blueprint map. I would prefer if this new feature will be implemented soon.
Regards
Anni
Something like this seems like a basic feature to easily create scalable asset-tracking applications.
Even a simple map update like “only show devices with tag X or Y” would do the trick I’d assume.

We would benefit the same for other types of widgets (like graphs! I have to manage groups of 50+ sensors, and it is a mess).
I think we need a way to get massive info by filtering by tags or config parameters, similar to how the device list widget works.
I currently use a separate bucket to store location variables for each overview I have to create per customer with a blueprint. This means when I onboard a customer I have to create a device, bucket, analysis and trigger every time. This would massively improve the UX.

Hello Annia,
We’ll need to rework the entire frontend and the dashboard API in order to make this happen. We have an upcoming feature that will allow the frontend to work more easily towards your idea. So after that, the implementation of something similar to this is much more feasible.
This is already possible with Custom Widgets. Even in Blueprint dashboards, you could set a Blueprint device that specifies the tags of all devices to be shown on the map at once and fetch their information. This way, you can select a Blueprint device that defines which devices will be shown on map.
I understand that you’re asking for a native solution on the Map widget, but i believe its worth pointing this out as well.
At the moment I don’t have a deadline date to point out, but I’ll update this thread as soon as I have more information about it.
