There are two more - when jailbreak-en, you can edit related RRD - eg. using RRD Editor. 🙂

And probably more suitable, it’s also possible via WebAPI - [https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/api-playground](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/api-playground)…

Change the deviceID This will remove ALL insights from that device! async function exe(deviceId) { let a = await Homey.insights.getLogs(); a = a.filter((x)=\>x.uri=='homey:device:' + deviceId); for(var i=0;i\<a.length;i++) { await Homey.insights.deleteLog(a[i]); } console.log(a); } exe('05507935-ab90-45d1-9cc7-87e0e0917013'); I have just created a ticket to create a better solution. [QlusterIT / nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities / issues /…](https://bitbucket.org/QlusterIT/nl.qluster-it.devicecapabilities/issues/10/create-a-view-in-app-settings-to-create-a)

This will delete however ALL insights of given device, maybe it could be customized but haven’t done research.

…another example

> I had a test-app installed once, uninstalled it, but the insights logs still persisted. To delete the logs: Go to the developer tools web api playground: [Homey Developer Tools](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/api-playground) Run the command Homey.insights.getLogs(); and find the id. Run Homey.insights.deleteLog({uri: "homey:manager:apps", id: "com.weather-sensors-cpuusage"}); This example command would clear this one: [image]
