It generates an image token. you still have to choose to do what you want with the image: - Send through telegram - Send through whatsapp - Save as file - Upload to ftp If you want to make it viewable within the Homey app you can use my other app: > **[Afbeelding](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.mennovanhout.images/Afbeelding/)** > > Voeg ondersteuning voor afbeeldingen toe aan de Homey app ---

Look closely at my example. You do need to connect your mail action card to that of Insights graphs and under image, choose the Graphs image token. ---

Do you think that it is now possible to create one email with multiple messages containing different graphs and messages below? - With the goal to send myself every morning an email dashboard with all kinds of graphs _Like I do at work to monitor the Webshops performance with Salesforce šŸ™‚_ - For now I send myself push messages like water usage, electricity and gas, but also the climate in house (temp and humidity) - But Iā€™m missing the Year to date ore mont to date view, average etcā€¦ Iā€™m hoping to get this via the images per day and month overview I keep dreamingā€¦ ---

Iā€™m trying to use this as an image in sharptools (for lack of any Homey dashboard/control panel functionality) but am getting lost amongst it all. Am fairly new to all this so it would be appreciated if some simple instructions could be made which shows how to setup/configure a Homey Insight to sharptools as an example. ---

> [@DarrenJ](#): > > Am fairly new to all this so it would be appreciated if some simple instructions could be made which shows how to setup/configure a Homey Insight to sharptools as an example. From what I gather, it seems like there are two approaches: 1. Use the special ā€˜userdataā€™ URL for the graph _directly_ in a Media Tile in [SharpTools.io](http://SharpTools.io) - See notes at the bottom for comments around persistence 2. Write the output from the Insights Graph card to an AVD ([reference](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-insights-graphs/86856/42)), then use the [Homey Image Viewer custom tile in SharpTools](https://community.sharptools.io/t/beta-homey-custom-tiles/12968) ## Direct userdata URL For the first approach, it looks like you would create your Advanced Flow using the Insights Graph card as normal which will write the image to file. Then you can use a special URL format to directly access that graph as a Media item in SharpTools ### 1. Create the Flow and output your image Create your Advanced Flow using the Insights Graph card as desired. Make sure to use a _unique_ name for each graph that you want to access. ![Homey Flow using Insights Graph](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/1/f1ca54456cad60e4f13c7d5748255d410a4d89ef.jpeg) ### 2. Construct the URL Per the comments above, we can access the generated graph directly in the `/userdata/` folder of the app. So we can construct a URL directly to the generated graph with a format like: Format: ```plaintext https://{your-dash-format-ip}.homey.homeylocal.com/app/nl.mennovanhout.insights-graphs/userdata/{yourFilename.png}.png ``` Example: ```auto https://192-168-1-213.homey.homeylocal.com/app/nl.mennovanhout.insights-graphs/userdata/temperature2.png.png ``` > **Direct IP URL (tap to expand)** > > This direct IP URL format below is **not** for SharpTools. The above format uses Homeyā€™s DNS resolver and has a valid SSL which makes it ideal for access in an SSL dashboard. Alternatively, you could use a _direct_ URL to your Homey but it may introduce SSL Mixed Content issues, so it is not suggested for a dashboard served over SSL. > > ```auto > http://192.168.1.213/app/nl.mennovanhout.insights-graphs/userdata/temperature2.png.png > > ``` You should be able to access this URL directly in your browser: ![Viewing Constructed userdata URL in browser](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/4/54981bb91b5a4309c6cbcd4985e2187aae63f35e.jpeg) ### 3. Create the SharpTools Media Item Create a [SharpTools Media Item](https://sharptools.io/user/resources/media) using the URL of the graph image from the previous step. Enable ā€˜autorefreshā€™ and set the interval according to your needs: ![Using Constructed userdata URL in SharpTools Media item](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/6/06e851f61899debd373d8d63d8b66e8d7ed1e3c1.jpeg) Notes: - This is a local URL directly to your Homey, so it wonā€™t be accessible outside your home. This is fine for a wall mounted dashboard, but if you need remote access, the second AVD approach might be more suitable. - [Based on the tests](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-insights-graphs/86856/132) by @Michael_E above, it seems like the `userdata` URL survives an app reboot - The alternative approach of using the image listed in the Homey Developer Tools has more issues as it seems like the images in the Homey Developer Tools are **temporarily cached** - these images disappear after rebooting the app / Homey. And after a reboot they get a new unique ID when regenerated. ---

@Ralph_Z and @Menno_van_Hout Greate App! Iā€™m playing arround with HD Boards and I like it. But there seems to be Problem with the image card. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/3/2389ff2e039a6dee6aaba98994f13218f5941b86.jpeg) The preview is renderd correct, but the error message is blocking me.

This seems to be a rare case that happens sometimes after homey has an update. A homey reboot works. When requesting device info homey responds with an error instead of the data. Somehow a reboot solves this. ---
