Measurement Point basics

A Measurement Point receives and stores data sent by devices. Multiple devices can send data to one Measurement Point over time. Historical data remains even if no devices are currently assigned.

Measurement Points always belong to a Construction. Manage them from each Construction card in Constructions overview.

User Permissions

Global Admins, Organization Admins, and Construction Admins can add, edit, move, and remove Measurement Points. Users and Guests have read‑only access.

Movement

You can move a Measurement Point only between Constructions inside the same Organization. Moving does not delete historical data.

Viewing Measurement Points​

Use Show Measurement Points on the Construction card to display the table.
