We are pleased to introduce Default Variables and improved Query functionality in Soracom Lagoon 3 to reduce manual work when creating dashboards and to visualize and manage data more efficiently.

Default Variables

Default Variables allow a viewer to easily change the devices and data series displayed in the panels of a dashboard, or to automatically repeat displayed panels for multiple devices. When you create a new dashboard, the following Default Variables will now be created automatically:

• resource_types: The resource type to display, such as Air, Sigfox, Inventory Device, etc.
• groups: The Soracom groups to display from the selected resource type (such as data from Air resources in a specific group)
• resources: The specific resources to display from the selected resource type and groups (such as data from a specific IoT SIM)
• properties: The data series to display

For more information, see the Soracom Lagoon: Variables documentation.

Query Editor

The Query editor now provides a Group option that allows you to easily select multiple resources that belong to a particular Soracom group. We have also redesigned the Query editor interface to make each field clearer and less confusing when configuring a query.

For more information, see the Soracom Lagoon: Query documentation.
