# Events Over Time

### Total Events Over Time

Use this widget to track the number of events over time. You can display a single event or combine multiple events; when multiple events are selected, their values are summed together to show overall trends.

You can temporarily focus on individual events, compare them against the total, or show and hide series directly on the chart.

The widget also allows you to adjust **time resolution**, which depends on the dashboard’s selected time range (for example, 1 hour, 15 minutes, or 1 minute for one day). A default resolution can be set in the widget settings.

### Events Breakdown Over Time

Use the Events Breakdown Over Time chart to analyze events individually. Each event is displayed as a separate line, allowing you to compare events, identify patterns and correlations, and track event behavior over time on a single chart.The chart also supports tag filtering and time resolution adjustments, similar to the Total Events Over Time chart.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.blynk.io/en/blynk.console/dashboards/event-widgets/events-over-time.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
