Charts: Empty Time Series should be treated as zero instead of failing a calculation

Thank you for sharing one more your insightful reflection, Marcela! 

We greatly appreciate your contribution and stay tuned for updates on how we plan to proceed.

Hi Marcela,

Our approach to solving this requirement is by introducing support for Time Series Status Codes, which after implementation will mean there will be no more empty time series, (unless that is the case in the source system).  

Please could you take a moment to review the proposed API changes I shared with and the team some days ago and let me know if you’d like to have a follow up discussion if this doesn’t solve your requirement.

Kind Regards, Glen

This is fantastic feedback @Marcela Young we are looking into this in the product side to allow users to be able to set the default behaviour on missing data. It is something we are aware off and would like to solve in the near future. Please stay tuned for more information as we work on some concepts and ideas to solve this problem.

@Arun Arunachalam  Can we please ensure the specific users building the monitoring or charts calculations decide on what to do with missing data, bad data or un-certain data. When a timeseries is brought in to the chart/calculation, it would greatly help having this ability at the input level (for each of the inputs going into a calculation separately). Thanks
