I'm using reports to process some info with an external app, so i'm making reports using sensor tags to make more easy and automatic (when addsome type of sensor, its automatically add to the report too), this report attach the files in csv format, but in the name of files or inside of it is not the sensor name but the report use his ID.
The ID is not representative and i dont want to search manually name and ID, its inefficient and requieres a human intervention for update when add a new sensor.
Its possible to extract a table with ID and Name of each sensor to make the correlation, maybe using other report or other way?

Thanks Felix, is there some tutorial or cookbook to make that or something similar using the API?

Hi there,
We do not have a cookbook for this. However you can take a look in our manual about the API.
Kind regards

Hi there,
I'm afraid this is not possible since the csv file is generated from the monitoring database. This means values are only stored in dependency of the IDs and not the name, since the name of a sensor can change, the ID can't. The only workaround would be to create a script which queries the API to map the sensor name to the ID.
Kind regards
