I want to show the event time in the basicui sitemap, near each event in a multisensor event (my installation is OH2 official release)
I have a motion sensor (Fibaro - FGMS-001) with e.g. temperature, lux and motion sensors
I was able to get a single timestamp for the entire multisensor following the post in here but not a time for every sensor. To get the event time for every sensor, I followed the instructions in here and here
I do get sensor events (note1) but I think that something is not OK with my rule since I’m not seeing any items with update history (see note2).
My items and rules files are in note3, and note4.
As I understand I need a persistence service but I’m not sure if it is set correctly. I do have MapDB (see note5)
But it looks like there are no persisted events?
Thanks
EDIT:
I was missing the file mapdb.persist. After adding it (note6) I am starting to get update history and the event times are showing in the basicui sitemap
