I’m not seeing setpoint metrics possibly because I keep my Ecobee on Auto year round. It could also be something else.

As an aside, why is my cool runtime per degree day so damn high?

Hi Richard! I’ll take a look. Could you send me your thermostat serial and I’ll take a look?

The original design for the setpoint metric intentionally only includes setpoints when your system mode is heat or cool, not auto.

The idea was that if I take a cool setpoint during the winter when the system is set to auto that the value is irrelevant. It still kind of is, but I think the alternative (not having any data) is worse.

This is fixed. You should see setpoint metrics now.

> End result is that people who run their system in auto all the time don't get the setpoint metric.
