Unchanged Property Filter

The Unchanged Property Filter provides a way to discard individual datum properties that have not changed within a datum stream.

This filter is provided by the Standard Datum Filters plugin.

Tip

See the Unchanged Datum Filter for a filter that can discard entire unchanging datum (at the source ID level).

Settings

Unchanged Property filter component settings

In addition to the Common Settings, the following general settings are available:

Setting Description
Default Unchanged Max Seconds When greater than 0 then the maximum number of seconds to discard unchanged properties within a single datum stream (source ID). Use this setting to ensure a property is included occasionally, even if the property value has not changed. Having at least one value per hour in a datum stream is recommended. This time period is always relative to the last unfiltered property within a given datum stream seen by the filter.
Property Configurations A list of property settings.

Setting Description
