Hi,
Is there any documentation on how Channel Status Updates work? In the Channel Status Updates widget I sometimes see a few updates, sometimes just the latest one, and sometimes none, I don't quite understand what the rule is - is it disappearing after some amount of time?

When I open my recent Channel Status Updates feed ( https://thingspeak.com/channels/322038/status/recent) in most cases it is empty - "recent" might suggest some time-bound criteria, but what is it?

Cheers,
/T

/recent is undocumented and may be taken away in the future.

This endpoint provides all the status updates in the last 30 days, up to 30 updates. You can try it with channel 1417 for example, that is the cheerlights channel.

FYI, MATLAB answers is now the preferred location for ThingSpeak Community support.

My channel had definitely more than 0 status updates during lats 30 days and for some reason it is empty 🙁 Maybe it is the matter of the Arduino ThingSpeak library being faulty.

I see one status update for 12/17/2019 at that address for your channel. The count of 30 includes blank statuses, which there are many in your public channel data.

The library is not faulty as far as we know, but if you see any problems with it, please let us know.
