    Create a programmatic access layer

    Customers have been using DLResize in the VBA pidldialogs.xla project which is unsupported. It would be nice to create a programmatic access layer so that things such as DLResize can be done in a supported way. It would also be helpful to have pro...

    PI DataLink on MS 365

    It will be great to have PI DataLink Add-on works on Microsoft 365 or allowing PI DataLink reports to be hosted in PI Vision.

    Rename "Compressed Data" to "Archived Data"

    In the PI DataLink tab in the Ribbon, "Compressed Data" should be renamed to "Archived Data" since it actually retrieves archived data and not just compressed data. The icon should also be changed accordingly. Not all data in the PI Data Archive n...

    Rename "Timed Data" to "Data At Timestamps"

    When I see "Timed Data", I think: "Well of course my data is timed! But what does this button do?". "Timed Data" retrieves interpolated/archived values at the given timestamps. Please rename "Timed Data" to better reflect this. I recommend "Data A...

    Replace "https://techsupport.osisoft.com" in PI DataLink's About window

    The link redirects to myOSIsoft. The link should be revised so that it does not redirect and possibly so that it leads to a different page instead. Either that or the link can be eliminated entirely.

    Rename "Time Filtered" to "Condition Time"

    "Time Filtered" was meant to be interpreted as "Time [Spent] Filtered", but it can easily be misinterpreted as "Time[-]Filtered" (i.e. filtered by time, i.e. Compressed Data). Please rename "Time Filtered" to "Condition Time" so that the name bett...

    Ribbon icons should visualize the kind of data to be retrieved

    Currently, the icons that PI DataLink uses in the Ribbon are just meant to look pretty and do not help the user understand what kind of data will be retrieved. Please consider making the icons more informative. My suggestion is to use sparklines a...

    Allow VBA to hide array formula Task Panes

    Excel VBA code can invoke the resize/recalculate function on Datalink array formulae.  However this requires selection of the array and this pulls the appropriate Task Pane into view (unless the Datalink setting is in force that turns this of...
