"TP-Link Smartplug plugin" possible to sort & download data?

Hi,
I am doing a project in my studies where I want to collect the energy usage of 3D printing with different materials.

I was wondering if it was possible to somehow sort the data based on specific time frames and to download the data acquired from monitoring the energy consumption in the "TP-Link Smartplug" plugin.

I have seen that you can enter the "chart studio" and see the data based on a specific amount of observations you want to see. However, I cannot seem to have access to login to download the data, nor choose some time frames.

The data is stored in a sqlite3 database in the plugin's data folder. If you create a backup in octoprint and download the zip file you'll find the tplinksmartplug folder in the data sub-folder and you can work with it directly.

That power feature is still pretty beta and I make no claims of accuracy of the data provided or how it calculates to cost.

Thanks for the quick answer! It took me several hours to figure out how to do it but I managed it.

That is completely fine, I just need/want to have approximation values of power usage, which seems like it is doing fine (at least when comparing to the HS110 app).
