Check Whether Data Is Arriving

Use this page after you configure a live source. It helps you confirm that packets are reaching Meteobreeze and being recorded correctly.

What to check

Open Settings > Data sources and look for:

• Source status
• Last packet time
• Last rollup time
• Recent packets
• Any error message

What you should expect

• The source should show as active when packets are flowing.
• Last packet should update shortly after a successful request.
• Recent packets should show the latest live observations.
• Last rollup may lag slightly because Meteobreeze groups live data into 5-minute historical windows.

Common issues

• If the source is disabled, re-enable it before testing again.
• If the status is error, read the error message and check the source setup.
• If packets arrive but the dashboard looks unchanged, wait for the next 5-minute rollup.
• If there are no recent packets, test the source URL directly and check the device or script that sends it.

FAQ

• How fast should packets appear? Usually within moments of a successful request.
• Why is the rollup time different from the packet time? Because live packets are aggregated into historical rows.
