Use ma-now to generate the current timestamp, then derive the start boundary with chained moment filters. This preserves the explicit time range required for the SUM rollup instead of requesting only the latest stored values.
Define the rolling time boundaries
Set to to theTimeNow. Set from to the start of the current day minus seven days. With update-interval="1 HOURS", the current timestamp refreshes hourly.
<ma-now update-interval="1 HOURS" output="theTimeNow"></ma-now>
<ma-point-values
point="myPoint3"
values="point3Values"
from="theTimeNow | moment:'startOf':'day' | moment:'subtract':7:'days'"
to="theTimeNow"
rollup="SUM"
rollup-interval="1 DAYS">
</ma-point-values>
Understand the resulting window
This expression does not mean “the latest seven samples.” It begins at midnight seven days before the current day and ends at the current time. Because the ending day is still in progress, the returned daily buckets can include a partial current-day bucket; verify the chart boundaries before treating every bar as a completed daily total.
| Attribute | Function |
|---|---|
from |
Start of the current day, then shifted back seven days |
to |
Current time supplied by ma-now
|
rollup="SUM" |
Requests summed values within each rollup interval |
rollup-interval="1 DAYS" |
Groups the requested range into daily intervals |
latest |
Requests the latest stored values and did not provide the required rollup behavior in the reported configuration |
Configure multiple chart series consistently
If two points must share the same daily time axis, apply the same from, to, rollup, and rollup-interval attributes to both ma-point-values elements. Mixing a daily rolled-up series with a second series using latest="8" can produce mismatched timestamps or unexpected chart alignment.
- Create the shared current-time value with
ma-now. - Apply the same derived range and daily sum configuration to each series that must align.
- Confirm that the first timestamp begins at the intended midnight boundary, the last timestamp does not exceed the current time, and corresponding bars align across series.
Troubleshoot dashboard tab behavior separately
The time-range expression was reported to display the graph correctly, but the available evidence does not establish the cause of graphs appearing on other tabs or moving when tabs change. Diagnose that behavior from the complete dashboard and tab markup, including how separate HTML files are loaded and scoped; changing the second point from latest to a moment-based range did not resolve the tab issue.
FAQ
How do I show the last seven days in ma-point-values without a range picker?
Use ma-now for the current timestamp, set to="theTimeNow", and set from="theTimeNow | moment:'startOf':'day' | moment:'subtract':7:'days'".
Why does latest="7" not produce daily SUM rollups?
latest requests the latest stored values; in the reported configuration, it did not apply the required daily rollup. Use explicit from and to boundaries with rollup="SUM" and rollup-interval="1 DAYS".
Why do two Mango chart series have misaligned bars?
Check whether one series uses an explicit rolled-up range while the other uses latest. Apply the same from, to, rollup, and rollup-interval settings to both series, then verify their timestamps.
