Data Type

Every Datastream has a Data Type setting. Data Type is used to specify the type and format of the data and optimize data storage and further calculations.

Make sure you choose a correct Data Type for your data. Currently, these Data Types are supported:

Type	Min	Max
Integer	-2,147,483,648	2,147,483,647
Double	-1.8 x 10^300	4.9 x 10^-324
String	any value is accepted

IMPORTANT:

Blynk server will ignore values that don't match the Data Type

Example: if Datastream has Data Type set to Integer, but Hardware sends 123.45, this value will be skipped because it is Double, not Integer.

If the incoming value goes out of range of Min or Max setting, this value will be "cropped" to match this setting.
