My ideas: PI Connector for UFL

Showing 40

Support HTTP Token Authentication to a REST Endpoint

The REST endpoint from which I want to pull data requires token authentication. I would like the UFL Connector to be able to obtain the token given the username and password I enter on the Admin page.

Enable setting tag attributes in UFL Connector

UFL Connector should have ways to set tag attributes. There should be way to set the default compression and exception settings and also other tag attributes like point and data security.

Create child Event Frames

UFL connector can create child element using StoreElement function. it should be useful to extend functionality to event frames on function StoreEventFrame

Create/Write to Child Attributes

I would like to be able to write to Child attributes with the UFL connector using the StoreInElement function. Currently, it seems that the Connector cannot write to or create an attribute with a path like: ..\Element|ParentAttribute|ChildAttribu...

PI UFL Connector Event Frame Generator enhancement and bugfixes

Add a Boolean data type

Boolean variables are useful for reusing Boolean (sub)expressions, concise debugging of the value of a Boolean expression, and extraction and storage of Boolean values before writing to Int32 PI status tags (e.g. on/off status, open/closed status).

Be able to modify the PI Point prefix from the PI Connector for UFL administration page

It does not make sense that edits to some of the PI Connector for UFL's JSON files can be done through the administration page, but not all. The administration page should be a 1-stop configuration shop.

Allow dynamic parameters in URL

Often third party web API needs input parameters so static URL is not enough. Sometimes parameters are simple, e.g. current data, or can be derived from PI tags; these could be set with placeholder in configuration.

Allow specifying UOM for new AF attributes created by UFL or OMF

I'd like the ability to specify UOM for new attributes that I create. Adding categories as well would be even better!

Enhance the Timestamp data type to support all the formats allowed on .NET

Use case: ISO 8601 timestamps (2019-07-08T18:48:02+00:00), would be much easier to parse with full .NET datatime format support. It would also allow the connector to be consistent with the dynamic timestamp formatting that follows https://docs.mi...
