I have a Electricity counter and I would like to reset all the history. How can I do that ?

I don't think there is an API call for this.
Delete the device and make a new one?
Else you would have to manipulate the SQLite database and delete the idx related entries in meter_calendar table.

Thanks @waltervl, I was more looking to an API or even to do it straight from the User Interface, as we can do for other logs.
Removing the device is not a possibility as this is created by a plugin.
Is COMPUTE Usage (meter) is supported on Python Framework Plugin

In fact I'll describe more my problem an may be someone can help me. Any thing I'm doing Wrong ?
I'm using the Electricity (instant and counter) via a Python Framework Plugin. As I don't have any data for Usage, I'm updating the device with the instant power and putting 0 for the usage
basically when updating via the plugin
power is usually expressed in a float type
My main issue is that the Usage remains to 0
Here after are the log. We see the Instant Power, but nothing happen for the Usage !

I've checked the device and it is defined as COMPUTE as you can see in the hereafter screenshoot

This could be a python plugin framework issue not updating the device the same way as an http API call would do. What happens if you use an http API call instead to test?
