Return the Values of Timestamp Data Items in Timestamp Format

The values of timestamp tags or AF attributes should be formatted as timestamp in Excel by default. Currently they are returned as integers, and then users have to manually convert them into timestamps.

PI Datalink officially supports Excel 2024

My customer is using PI Datalink with Excel2024 instead of Excel365 because policy prevents the addition or update of each person's Excel functionality. I would like to add Excel2024 to the PI DataLink Compatibility Matrix for these customers.

Unit testing for Microsoft Edge browser for PI Connectors administration

Allow for a timeshift of certain tags, depending on process time delay

Allow converting compatible formulas to dynamic arrays on an entire spreadsheet

Right now, it is tedious to convert an existing spreadsheet to use dynamic arrays since each formula needs to be converted one-by-one. It would be helpful to have a way to convert formulas in bulk.

Add support for Future tags

Please add support for future data / tag type to PI System Connector. Since it is currently unsupported we have to continue to rely on PI to PI interfaces or other to handle these tags.
