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

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...

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...

Configure target PI/AF/DB at datasource level

Actually the UFL Connector sends data to all of the listed PI Data Archives and AF Servers in the server list configured in administration page, so it's not possible to send different data to different PI DA or AF databases with a single UFL Conne...
