Enable Dynamic Transfer Selection Criteria that PI to CONNECT periodically re-evaluates

Alert if ingress detected to be in a bad state

During 2 recent lighthouse projects, most recently with Kimball Electronics, the machine hosting the PI to CONNECT agent experienced a reboot due to patch installations. PI to CONNECT didn't properly restart (we'll investigate that separately) and...

Allow for sampling rate that is faster than one event per seconds

High frequency data is increasingly common. With examples in manufacturing of events happening entirely within a few 100s of milliseconds. The request is to allow the export of interpolated data at a rate higher than the current limit of 1 event p...

Show Date and Time of Local PI Server, Not PI AF Instance

Currently, the timestamp which is shown in the export files is the date and time of the PI AF server which is extracting the data, not the date and time on the local PI server that the data is extracted from.  Like Datalink, we need the abili...

Support attribute renames

When an attribute(s) name changes, I would like the Integrator to propagate that change to existing views that contain the attribute. The Integrator does support element renames but not attribute name changes. Currently, we have to republish the a...

Expose additional Kafka target configuration options

Add ability to handle exception point type changes 

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...

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,...
