Use constants in formula expressions

In Amazon IoT SiteWise, you can use constants in your expressions and formulas to represent fixed values or predefined parameters. Constants can be used in various contexts, such as data transformations, alarm conditions, or visualization calculations. By using constants, you can simplify your expressions and make them more readable and maintainable.

You can use the following common mathematical constants in your expressions. All constants are case insensitive.

Note

If you define a variable with the same name as a constant, the variable overrides the constant.
