Figure caption: The time-averaged SED for the compact Sgr A* source during the 2017 EHT run is shown as black open circles and an NIR upper limit. Luminosities for the X-ray flare observed on 2017 April 11 are indicated as black circles filled with light purple. Table 2 lists the 2017 values in units of flux and luminosity. Colored background points display the historic SED of Sgr A* in flaring and quiescent states, with the light yellow polygons indicating the range of previously observed variability (Backer 1982; Wright et al. 1987; Zylka & Mezger 1988; Yusef-Zadeh et al. 1990; Zylka et al. 1992, 1995; Telesco et al. 1996; Serabyn et al. 1997; Falcke et al. 1998; Cotera et al. 1999; Baganoff et al. 2003; Yuan et al. 2003; Zhao et al. 2003; Herrnstein et al. 2004; An et al. 2005; Marrone et al. 2006b; Dodds-Eden et al. 2009, 2011; Schödel et al. 2011; Nowak et al. 2012; Bower et al. 2015; Brinkerink et al. 2015; Liu et al. 2016; Stone et al. 2016; Zhang et al. 2017; von Fellenberg et al. 2018; Witzel et al. 2018; Bower et al. 2019; Haggard et al. 2019; Gravity Collaboration et al. 2020). A time-binned historic SED representative of states without extreme variability is presented in Paper VI.
