point syncronizing
You can synchronize two data points between two servers, so when a point receives a new value the target point will be updated with the same value. This is useful for uploading kpi data from a local server to a cloud for longer term storage, for example.
To Sync two points, right click the first point and select the synchronize option. Enter the target server url, the name of the target point and a read/write access key you created on the target server with access to write to the target point. Now, login to the target server and create the target point with the same name you set here. Now, whenever the first point receives a new value, the target point will be updated.
Consider a sensor writing to a single data point. A Summary Trigger is created to take an hourly average of that point and record the result to a target point. The target point has a synchronize trigger with a target of another instance of nimbits on the cloud, which in turn powers a website containing this data.
