Using bulk upload in a CSV format to store IoT logs onto Thinkspeak.
My IoT (ESP32) will bulk upload few (~10) lines by the end of a cycle, once in about an hour.
However, ont he time line (both on automatic charts and on export) it seems that the lines are spread on over an hour, so actually I have no idea when this is really happened.
the two following pictures demonstrates it well: both "points" where reported at the same time using a simple bulk update call, but reported like it was posted 40 minutes apart. this is consistent with the data exported in the export function. However there, it is 10-15 seconds shifted from the time on the chart... (?!?!!?)
Why is the timestamp incorrect and spead over time ?
How can I make sure I get the correct timestamp to a log submitted ?
thanks!

Thank you for updating. Ill make a request to improve the error messages if possible. Unfortunately the bulk update flow has some special difficulties for reporting errors in real time.
