Measurement Output
apama.analyticskit.blocks.cumulocity.CreateMeasurement
Creates a new Measurement object for the associated device or the triggering device.
This block sends a new measurement to Cumulocity IoT for the Value input port. If the Send input port is connected, this block only sends an output on receiving a send signal. The measurement is sent to the current device or the device specified.
This block produces synchronous output. The parameters that define the output stream of the block are "Device or Device Group", "Fragment Name" and "Series Name". Using another instance of this block with the same output stream is not allowed.
Non-finite values are ignored.
