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...

Send only data that has changed.

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...

__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.

Add ability to uncheck or remove attributes from existing transfer

Transfers are initially added by searching and then selecting elements then attributes to add. When we want to edit the transfer, we are only able to remove entire elements, not by attributes. This became an issue when we later found that we had a...

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.

Allow Definition of Point Attributes via OMF to PI Web API

When creating containers via OMF the PI Points are created with default Point Attributes - if these need to be changed it is a manual process to subsequently change the attributes appropriately. As OMF solutions can be easily deployed it would be ...

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.

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...

Support "Data Handling" options for adapters

The PI Interface for OPC DA can write IO timeout when it cannot get values from the OPC server. It would be useful to have the same option for the adapters so that stale data is marked IO timeout or similar, and automatically invalidates calculati...

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...
