Add a PI PowerShell cmdlet to find all installed PI software and which installation kit installed it

As someone tasked with upgrading PI environments, it would be nice if there was a tool such as a PI PowerShell cmdlet that would retrieve all of the version information for all installed PI software on a given machine, as well as which install kit...

Import-AFXml (PowerShell) should have ContinueOnError option

Both AFImport.exe and ImportXml (AFSDK) have options to continue on error (like is something is checked out or if there is a duplicate element name). For some reason the PowerShell version doesn't. This should be added.

Add a Boolean data type

Boolean variables are useful for reusing Boolean (sub)expressions, concise debugging of the value of a Boolean expression, and extraction and storage of Boolean values before writing to Int32 PI status tags (e.g. on/off status, open/closed status).

Be able to modify the PI Point prefix from the PI Connector for UFL administration page

It does not make sense that edits to some of the PI Connector for UFL's JSON files can be done through the administration page, but not all. The administration page should be a 1-stop configuration shop.

Allow dynamic parameters in URL

Often third party web API needs input parameters so static URL is not enough. Sometimes parameters are simple, e.g. current data, or can be derived from PI tags; these could be set with placeholder in configuration.

Allow specifying UOM for new AF attributes created by UFL or OMF

I'd like the ability to specify UOM for new attributes that I create. Adding categories as well would be even better!

Enhance the Timestamp data type to support all the formats allowed on .NET

Use case: ISO 8601 timestamps (2019-07-08T18:48:02+00:00), would be much easier to parse with full .NET datatime format support. It would also allow the connector to be consistent with the dynamic timestamp formatting that follows https://docs.mi...

Align all developer tools to have access to the same data

The different PI developer tools do not have the ability to retrieve the same data. For example, a user cannot retrieve PI connection statistics from the AFSDK. That is only accessible via PowerShell (Get-PIConnectionStatistics). In C# or PI WebAP...

Add the ability to write to a point using an attribute other than tag name

Provide the capabilities of mapping a UFL data point to a PI tag using a PI Point attribute other than the tag name.  For example, we’ll have a data file from another database that uses a different ID than our PI point name. Could we write to...

Add ‘No Replace’ mode to UFL Connector

Currently the only PI Data Archive ‘Store Mode’ options are ‘Insert’ and ‘Update’. I’m currently working on a project where a large quantity of data needs to be downloaded daily from the internet using the REST client node. To reduce chances of da...
