    Transfer metrics are high level only

    Tags from data sources can change point type for whatever reason. When tags are initially added to the transfer, a point type for that tag is created. If for any reason, the point type changes, it will cause an error in connect and the transfer wi...

    Add ability to select individual PI tags from UI 

    We were able to get around this (with help of Glenn and Fabio) by utilizing hidden API endpoint which allow us to add Pi Tags by PointID. Customer had 3000 tags (no AF configured) in an excel sheet, attempting to search for these returned 15,...

    When setting up PI to Connect Agent transfers, we need to emphasize in the documentation that we recommend installation of the PI Agent on the same network, and in the same physical location, but not on the same server as the PI server it will be ...

    Save the original First Run Time field when modifying a view

    When modifying a view that has already ran successfully, the First Run Time is not preserved.  The last time I configured it, it was set to a future date at 1AM.  When I modify it again, the field is populated with '*'.  It would be...

    Allow large queries to be split up into manageable pieces

    If I build a view in the Integrator that asks the Data Archive for a large amount of information my query can timeout. This will result in the Integrator writing NULL values to certain columns of my view. As a current workaround I just build a vie...

    Support connecting to a different DNS listener for each of the Integrator's backend SQL databases

    The Integrator currently supports only a single SQL server connection string to access all of its backend databases (PIIntegratorDB, PIIntegratorLogs, PIIntegratorStats). Our organization's SQL Server cluster provides high availability at the SQL ...

    Support Element metadata Modification for data synchronization with PI AF

    Allow users to find AF element templates more easily

    As I add new elements to a data transfer, I want to easily find an element template by typing its first few letters or expanding the template tree (organized by inheritance). Currently, all I can do is scrolling down a list of templates, which can...
