HI, I have a number of projects, one measures temperature in my garage; another measures temperature in my fridge. I would like to add a Labeled Value widget to the fridge project to display the garage temperature (the relationship between the ambient temp and the fridge temp).
I’ve read a lot of docs, forums, played with the app (New Device, New Tag etc), I’m aware I can add a NEW device, but not an EXISTING device.
My issue is that if I add a new device the app generates a new token, which I would presumably have to change in my existing, operational device? Is this correct?
Is there a method to add an existing device, that already has a token, to an existing project - without having to change tokens in either/or of the devices?
Thnx. Got it. Send temp data from Device1 to Device2; then from Device2 to widget in Project2.
I’d hoped it was as simple as adding the display widget to Project2 and configuring it to access data on an existing board . . . maybe one day an option for Exiting Device (would look for all devices in use by all projects in the app), in addition to New Device. This would allow adding widgets ‘on the fly’ between already running projects without need to change code.
thnx

BTW my project is monitoring the temperature of my beer - cricital requirement ;-))
Took a while but worth the effort to understand. I’ll be using this a LOT! (the wild fluctuations are me messing with the sensors - my beer is perfectly cold!)
