    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...

    Adapter for BACnet - defaultStreamIdPattern add ObjectName as possible parameter

    Currently, for the Adapter for BACnet its [Data source parameters] defaultStreamIdPattern does not have an option to include the ObjectName in the defaultStreamIdPattern. It would be good to include this as a possible parameter for the defaultStre...

    Allow AVEVA Adapter for Modbus TCP to collect data on INT64 and UINT64 registers

    Certain equipment is providing energy data under INT64 or UNIT64 register types. However, the Adapter currently only supports FLOAT64, which is not compatible. We want to be able to configure the Adapter for Modbus TCP to collect data on INT64 and...

    Support failover/high availability/redundancy/backup instances for the CONNECT To PI Agent

    Please allow the CONNECT To PI Agent to have redundant/backup instances, similar to PI Collectives for the PI Data Archive, UniInt failover for PI Interfaces, and the failover of AVEVA Adapters.

    Support URI Builder attributes and make them clickable

    Allow URI Builder attributes to be added to a transfer, then turn them into links in CVS dashboards. Even better if they can be used in text hyperlinks. That way you can jump from a CVS dashboard straight into a PI Vision display or some other web...

    Classic Mode for Adapters

    One of the big issues we have with adapters (outside of the lack of write capability) is not having the same control over creating and editing tags that we have with PI interfaces. As we talked about the adapter automatically creates PI tags or us...

    Please add a feature for the OPC UA adapter to enable the adapter to only store values with a good status or rather filtering out bad values

    When receiving bad values from the OPC UA Server to the adapter there is no option to filter out bad values. So these values get stored in the Data Archive and are causing problems with analyses (e.g. expression or Event Frame generation). At the ...

    Allow files to be processed similarly to, or better than, the PI Connector For UFL (in particular, allow data to be manipulated before using or archiving it)

    The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data Files is supposed to be the successor to the PI Connector For UFL, but they work differently enough that each can handle certain types of files better than the other. The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data File...

    Adapter to failover when there is egress issue

    When connection to the datasource are all good for all the adapter failover members, but the primary adapter having issue connecting to the PI web API (egress) for example, adapter does not failover. Unlike PI Interface UNIINT failover, when there...

    Have the option to discover new data streams, auto-select them, and save data retrieved for them, all with a single query to the data source, similar to PI Connectors

    Background + problem When PI Connector tries to save data for a tag that does not already exist (e.g. data for a new piece of equipment), it will create that tag automatically. This is very convenient, but it sometimes led to issues where data tha...
