New updates & improvements to Clarify.
With the release of API v1.2 — likely 2026 Q3 — we are changing the default gap detection of signals and items from 40 days to 1h and 30 minutes. This will affect integration.saveSignals calls, as well as admin.publishItems where the gapDetection field is not explicitly set.
The change is motivaed by performance reasons, as we often need to extend our queries with the gap deteciton duration in both directions of a query window in order to gurantee correct resuls for calculations or to determine correct border conditions when drawing graphs. As an example, an item with 1Hz resoultion and 40 days gap detection, would trigger us to scan an additional 80 days of data — or more than 6 million data points — even when viewing a releatively small window.
The change will be backported to API v1.0 and v1.1. Admin UI defauls will also change.
If you are OK with changing the gap detection of your items, you do not need to do anything. To retain a larger gap detetection setting, please update your publishItems calls before or after the release date to contain an explicit gap detection setting for relevant items. If your data is managed by the Clarify solutions team, it's their job to worry about it, but please let them know if you see something unexpected.
