Dear @gtuveri,
by chance we were just watching the log files and found some bits which might be interesting for you:
1. Discrete “int” payload received on “data.json” suffix
Here, you are sending a data payload of just “1”, which is invalid to the “data.json” suffix. Real JSON is expected here.
2017-04-24T19:12:01+0200 [kotori.daq.storage.influx ] CRITICAL: Could not format chunk (ex=TypeError: argument of type 'int' is not iterable): data=1, meta={'node': 'node4', 'slot': 'data.json', 'realm': 'hiveeyes', 'network': '2cdd923f-751c-4844-86a5-b9e868458441', 'database': 'hiveeyes_2cdd923f_751c_4844_86a5_b9e868458441', 'measurement_events': 'sardinia_node4_events', 'label': 'sardinia_node4', 'measurement': 'sardinia_node4_sensors', 'gateway': 'sardinia'}
2017-04-24T19:12:01+0200 [kotori.daq.services.mig ] ERROR: Error processing MQTT message from topic "hiveeyes/2cdd923f-751c-4844-86a5-b9e868458441/sardinia/node4/data.json": [Failure instance: Traceback: <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>: 'int' object has no attribute 'keys'
To send discrete values, use something like:
mosquitto_pub -h $MQTT_BROKER -t $MQTT_TOPIC/data/temperature -m '42.84'

2. JSON “list” payload received on “data.json” suffix
Here, you are publishing a list like “[{u'qos': 0, u'longId': 3, u'offColor': -8355712, [...]”. Again, this is not a valid data format here: Please send flat JSON container objects. However, if you want to make the backend grok different data formats, we are happy considering it. Just get back to us.

Please let us know how we can support you.
With kind regards,

P.S.: We are still missing the feature described at Fehlersignalisierung bei Datenakquise (Backend) to improve the transparency and self-service capabilities when using the system. Sorry about that.
