 This is a total rewrite of [signalk-to-influxdb](https://www.npmjs.com/package/signalk-to-influxdb) that works with InfluxDB v1.x databases.
 
+Once the data is in InfluxDb you can use for example [Grafana](http://grafana.org/) to draw pretty graphs of your data.
+
 Main features:
 - writes `navigation.position` shaped to work with InfluxDB's [geo features](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.1/query-data/flux/geo/)
 - supports multiple InfluxDb connections
 
-See [backlog](https://github.com/users/tkurki/projects/1/views/1) for planned features and [Releases](https://github.com/tkurki/signalk-to-influxdb2/releases/tag/v0.0.6) for published features.

+The plugin implements the Signal K History API, allowing retrieval of historical data with HTTP GET requests.
+
+## Retrieve logged data
+
+To retrieve logged data from the database, send a request to the `values` endpoint, specifying at least the time interval and SignalK path(s).
+
+`http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/values?from=2023-04-23T18:53:20Z&to=2023-04-23T18:55:00Z&paths=environment.wind.speedApparent`
+
+The data returned is in SI units, e.g. vessel and wind speeds in meters/s, angles in radian.
+
+For further refinement of the queries, you can use the following request parameters.
+
+### Request Parameters
+
+The following request parameters are supported in queries:
+
+* `from` / `to` (mandatory)
+
+  Start and end timestamp, GMT based, e.g. 2023-11-12T21:34:00Z 
+
+* `paths` (mandatory)
+
+  SignalK paths to retrieve, comma-separated. Note that `navigation.position` can not be combined with other paths.
+  By default the mean value is returned, but a path can be appended with :min or :max to select the minimum or maximum value.
+
+* `resolution` (optional)
+
+  The time interval in seconds between each point returned. For example `http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/values?paths=navigation.position&from=2023-11-06T17:30:47Z&to=2023-11-12T21:34:00Z&resolution=60` will return the data with one position per minute. The data is simply sampled with InfluxDB's `first()` function.
+
+* `format` (optional)
+
+  Position data ('navigation.position') can be exported as JSON (default) or in [GPX](https://www.topografix.com/gpx.asp) format. Set `format=gpx` to receive a GPX track.
+
+### Examples
+
+Get minimum apparent wind angles:
+
+`http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/values?from=2023-04-23T18:51:26Z&to=2023-04-23T19:58:43Z&paths=environment.wind.angleApparent:min`
+
+Get wind angle and boat speed:
+
+`http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/values?from=2023-04-23T18:53:20Z&to=2023-04-23T18:55:00Z&paths=environment.wind.angleApparent,navigation.speedThroughWater&resolution=60`
+
+Get the track with positions at intervals of 5 minutes in GPX format:
+
+`http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/values?from=2023-11-04T10:00:00Z&to=2023-11-12T18:00:00Z&paths=navigation.position&resolution=300`
+
+## List available data paths
+
+To retrieve a list of available paths, send a request to the `paths` endpoint with from and to timestamps:
+
+`http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/paths?from=2023-11-04T00:00:00Z&to=2029-11-25T23:59:59Z`
+
+
+## List available contexts
+
+To retrieve a list of available contexts, send a request to the `contexts` endpoint with from and to timestamps:
+
+`http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/history/contexts?from=2023-11-04T00:00:00Z&to=2029-11-25T23:59:59Z`
