    Enable Multiple PI to CONNECT agents for one PI Data Archive

    Aside from our main AF Server setup used for numerous use cases like energy, OEE, etc, we have created a second environment of AF Server / AF Analysis / SQL Server to isolate the monitoring of a critical process. We are still making use of a singl...

    Support string builder attributes

    String builder attributes are incredibly useful for including helpful Asset Framework metadata and context. They are widely used throughout AF deployments, and this data is very helpful for downstream analysis and interpretation of AF data. The PI...

    Compression on CONNECT to PI related tags

    The tags use the default compression settings since they are automagically created through PI WebAPI if CONNECT to PI agent starts sending the transfer. This can mean that there is another compression applied to the tags. But as we are already cop...

    Support of Event Frame Annotations

    Sometimes, annotations in Event Frames are stored (e.g. when acknowledging/commenting a notification in PI Vision). This information should get replicated to CONNECT data services and be made available through CONNECT visualization services. The o...

    Make the Agent recrawl the AF/PI Point database from scratch

    Make the agent recrawl the AF/PIPoint database from scratch every now and again and update its cache if required. I think this is what PI Vision does, so it doesn't have these limitations.

    Support derived templates

    When replicating AF data to CONNECT, I would like to make sure that all assets configured from templates which are themselves based on derived templates, preserve the template inheritance. For instance, if I have a Mobile Equipment template, with ...

    __ParentID metadata should be parent Asset ID, not parent element GUID in AF.

    As a connect data services user, it is more helpful to me to know the parent asset id of my asset rather than its parent element GUID. This would allow me to more easily navigate the Asset hierarchy programatically.

    Specify stream properties in a CONNECT to PI transfer

    Include a way to select (or filter out) different properties of a stream used in a CONNECT to PI transfer so that we can control the PI tag/s created.

    Allow different permission models and "view effective permissions for user" features within tenant

    For sharing data to external clients who are not PI/CONNECT users, we cannot use the community sharing and permissions model and instead have to add users to an org's tenant. By default, all users are granted the tenant member and tenant viewer ro...
