There are two ways to view these insights
Time Navigation + Charts The play scrubber in the Time Navigation bar, syncs with the play scrubber in the charts
Time Navigation + Heatmap By manually moving the play scrubber or by hitting play, users can view a heatmap of data received by IoT devices over time.
NOTE: The Streams panel must be open for the heatmap to function. In the gif below, we have the Steams panel minimized.
