title: How to store data that's being streamed to a live graph in plotly?
body: <p>I am streaming data to a live graph in Plotly from a Particle Photon. </p>
  
  <p>However, I'd like to save all the data that I'm streaming for future analysis. </p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, the streaming API only allows a certain number of points before the earliest point drops off. (I believe the max number of points allowed is 20,000.)</p>
  
  <p>I've read from this Github <a href="https://github.com/plotly/arduino-api/issues/20" rel="nofollow">issue page</a> that you can store data by making a REST call, but I'm still unsure about how to proceed. </p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know a method or have any advice for me to develop a way to save live streaming data instead of using a middleman (like an RPi or PC) to store data before uploading data to plotly? </p>
