trails are not syncronized

[Colug0]

Maybe I am just doing something wrong, but I couldn`t find something about it.

If I display the track and open the webapp on different devices (windows and android) I get different trails displayed. I am logged in on both devices.

Freeboard-SK logs track to the device's local storage by default, so the track logged and displayed is based on the vessel position while the app is running on the device....so different devices will show the track based on that instance of the app.

Freeboard-SK can use the track logged on the server (requires the signalk-influxdb plugin).
You can enable display track from server in Freeboard-SK settings.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I selected the option "Get trails from server". I Have the signalk-to-influxdb2 plugin running. Do I need to configure outside Freeboard-SK that a track should be stored? If so, under which path should it be stored? Is this functionality somewhere documented?

Influxdb2 plugin does not provide tracks/trails but I am interested in implementing it, not much work. @panaaj we have created a bit of s mess with the different apis. Which one would you recommend I implement?

[panaaj]

Are you referring to /self/track and /tracks endpoints?

[Colug0]

Are there any news about storing tracks central an display them on freebord-sk. Or maybe a workaround? I would like to help but honestly I have now idea how to start and what to do

[tkurki]

I (author of sk-to-influxdb2 plugin) should coordinate with Adrian on what endpoint is the one going forward and then add support for that in the plugin.

If I can help somehow, please let me know. And a bit thank you for all the work you all have done!
