    If necessary, introduce separate installers/files for the adapter-specific parts of the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility

    Currently, the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility is a single program that handles all AVEVA Adapters. Over time, as more AVEVA Adapters get introduced and the amount of adapter-specific features and accommodations increases, the AVEVA Adapter Co...

    Show the description/documentation of parameters in a tooltip, possibly for a ⓘ icon

    I find myself switching between the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility and the documentation of the AVEVA Adapter to ensure that I know how to set a parameter. It would be much easier if the description/documentation of each parameter was shown i...

    For query strings for the AVEVA Adapter For RDBMS, provide a larger, resizable text box that preserves new-line characters

    Fix awkward duplicate wording when deleting a data filter

    When I tried to delete the default "DuplicateData" data filter, the attached error message appeared ("Are you sure you want to remove this array item array item?"), but it reads awkwardly because of the duplicated "array item". The 2nd "array item...

    Allow configuration data to be queried (like PI Builder, but programmatic and read-only)

    Currently, PI SQL Client can retrieve only archived data, event frames, and data that gives that data context (e.g. elements, templates, attributes, UOMs). However, PI SQL Client does not expose configuration data (i.e. the type of data that PI Bu...

    Allow Adaptors to run in Docker

    Allow Adaptors to run in Docker. This would ease the roll-out and management of adaptors. Also new Cisco switches now allow Docker instances on the switch, limiting the need for extra hardware.

    Ability to add optional elements in an asset view's shape

    Currently when building an asset view's shape, the matches received would only cover the elements that are found in the PI AF database that match that shape. It would be good to have an option where if a child element is considered optional in the...
