As a End User I would like the Analysis Curve Function to accept referenced attributes and internal calculation variables for numeric constants (x1,y1) (x2,y2) (xn,yn) so that the resulting y value is based on a dynamically updating curve function...

Preserve variable-attribute mapping upon attribute path change

Currently, if a variable is mapped to an attribute and the attribute's AF path changes, the variable must be remapped to the attribute. Instead of relying on the attribute's full path to identify the attribute, each attribute should be identified...

User-defined functions

Allow arguments/parameters to be passed to variable definitions, effectively creating user-defined functions. For example, suppose that I want to define the function TagSum, which adds the values at all events in a time range. Then: TagSum(tag, s...

For recursive Analyses such as below : PrevVal(tagA,'*') + 'TagB' → output : tagA When the PI Analysis Service is down (or the node needs to be restarted), the current calculation needs to be halted until the Backfilling reaches up to the start u...

Analysis Preview Results - Remove Table and Graph

When using the preview analysis function an an analysis with many variables the preview graph and table struggles to keep up, and uses a long time to update. When there are many variables, these are also quite useless. It would therefore be an i...
