Provide an option to only use access control lists to access Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) Gen2 containers and directories

*Published on behalf of a customer.* PI Integrator for BA currently requires the use of role-based access control (Azure RBAC) to authenticate to the storage account first. With the Storage Blob Data Reader role, it grants read and list permission...

Scheduled Update Data for Business Integrator

We would like the ability to "schedule" a reoccurring "update data" write for a PI View. We have several scheduled backfills for processes where data is somewhat delayed (i.e. lab data) but to get the data in the PI View today we need to do a manu...

Clearly label or group together obsolete/deprecated/legacy features

PI System Management Tools is littered with legacy features. By grouping them together or clearly labeling them as "legacy" or similar, the user knows which features to use or migrate away from without having to look up each feature individually.

Normalized view of the Database Security Table

Currently, the Security column in the Database Security Table uses the following notation for its values (example): piadmin: A(r,w) | piadmins: A(r,w) | PI Readers: A(r) | PIWorld: A(r) This crams multiple PI Identities and access types into a si...
