Allow the PI Point description to not be populated by the adapter

Implement a configuration flag that allows one to NOT synchronize description from OPC UA server into PI Tag. In instances where the description is empty "", the description cannot be set in PI. Similarly, the description on the OPC UA Server sid...

Support security baselining

As a PI administrator, I need to baseline the security configuration of my PI System to ensure OSIsoft security best practices are followed. Below is a list of requested features. Baseline verification (read-only) for PI Data Archive: - PI Data ...

Egress via AF SDK

Please add AF SDK Egress as an additional optional egress component. This would be very helpful for customers who are using the adapters, but keeping the PI Server on-premise. The adapters are relatively light-weight services; however, the “cost” ...

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.

Allow PI Adapter for MQTT (Generic) to process non-json payloads

Some MQTT devices do not send json payloads; for example, some devices send a single value as the payload for a specific topic. It would be beneficial for the adapter to be able to handle this rather than to convert these payloads into json befo...

When transferring data via satellite it is necessary to keep bandwidth usage to a bare minimum. Currently OMF must send all values regardless of whether they have changed or not. If it could send only the data parameters that have changed that wou...

Update PI Vision Extensibility Guide to include Time Range Manipulations

With the introduction of the timeseries table and the ability to add a custom time range to trends, it would be very helpful if the GitHub references were updated to include guidance on how to similarly access this and make use of the new function...

Allow Multiple Data Archives per PI to CONNECT Agent

Allowing data transfer for tags from multiple PI Data Archives with one agent will help to cut down on the number of agent services, and therefore machines, that need to be involved to send data from PI to CONNECT.

Monitor PI to CONNECT connection

Sometimes, the PI to CONNECT agent seems to have some interruption in replicating data from a PI Data Archive into CONNECT data services. It would be beneficial to have some more monitoring options (in addition to what is available through the CON...

Enable OmfEgress component to be configurable by instance (by component)

In our process we wish to send a different set of data to different PI environments. For instance we would like all data to egress to the PROD environment while only egress a subset of data to the DEV environment, in which we don't need all the da...
