Changing telemetry unit dynamically from device
Does IoT Central support dynamically changing the unit of a telemetry field by a device ? For example, I'm trying to simulate a temperature sensor that allows the user to change the temperature unit ...

Microsoftalbin_sag A few thoughts here.
- Dynamically changing the "unit" of a telemetry is not supported.
- We're working to support data transformation "in app"... which would allow you to transform from F to C in the app, while preserving the original value.
- And we're also working on a Query API which would allow a customer to query for data in Central, and retrieve back the unit.
Both should be available later this year and/or early next year.
