    __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.

    An option to store symmetric keys in a file - OPC UA

    It would be helpful to be able to read network trace between OPC UA Server and Adapter even if communication is encrypted. This possibility is described here https://www.unified-automation.com/news/news-details/analyzing-encrypted-opc-ua-traffic-w...

    PI Adapter for OPC UA should send the previous value when it has been with the same value for a long time

    "This enhancement request proposes a solution to address the issue of data interpolation between two values far apart in time in adapter data collection. The suggestion is to include the value right before the new data point, ensuring the fidelity...

    Transfer metrics are high level only 

    When observing the agent transfer metrics, we realized that it is processing streaming/historical data. In order to troubleshoot this more closely, we want to see exactly how those data were generated to the exact tags because the data was in hist...
