# My device is configured to send sensor data, but it doesn't display

## Question

The device is sending data to the platform, but how do I get it to display on the platform?

## Answer

If your device is showing data within the Air Console, meaning the device is sending data to the platform, then the most likely case is that the device needs a sensor built on the platform. When a device sends data to the platform, the platform needs to know how to associate it with the device. For example, if you are solving a math problem, remember to describe the units, otherwise no one will know what’s being described.

To create a sensor, we recommend reviewing our measurement sensor guide for guidance.
