That's great thanks, I will read through that to try and make sense of it.

I have 2 projects at the moment. One is a water level/rain gauge sensor project. I've seen the My Sensors rain gauge sketch but it seems too complex for my needs although I could use it.

The other is a home "smart meter" for our electricity usage using a non invasive current sensor.

Thanks, I tried running the script:

var myImports = new JavaImporter(java.io, java.lang, java.util, java.text); with(myImports) { var sVar = mcApi.uidTag().getByUid("temp-outside").getResource(); // Get sensor variable object with UidTag api var minMaxData = mcApi.metric().getSensorVariableMetricDouble(sVar, 0,1479833863195); //(sensor-variable-object, from-timestamp, to-timestamp) }

changing "temp-outside" to my own uidTag for my sensor. It worked but seemed to return a lot more information than needed, although I see that the value (distance) is there, but among a lot of unwanted data. Is there a way of extracting just time/distance from this? Here's a sample of what was returned....
