When a PI Point is the output of an analysis add the attribute path to the description of the PI Point

It can be a challenge to find the analysis that writes to the PI Points in large AF hierarchies with many contributors. It would be convenient to have the PI Point Data Reference attribute path written to the PI Point configuration (description or...

Expression function to retrieve default attribute value

I am migrating part of an old ACE application over to AF Analyses, and need to replicate the functionality to fall back to default values in case any of the input attributes are bad. I have taken the time to set the default value in each attribut...

Function to extract Data Reference Type

We would like to be able to extract the data reference type (PI Point, None, Formula, Table Lookup, etc.) for an attribute using PI Analysis, similar to the TagType function for PI points.

Improve usability of TagNum function

The TagNum function seems to be the only function that requires a double quote as opposed to single quotes. Many other TagXXX functions call for single quotes for its attribute or PI Point arguments.

Thorough Analysis service message logs

Allow Analysis timestamp override feature to output milliseconds

When using an analysis variable as the output timestamp, it appears that the actual output timestamp is floored to the nearest second, shaving off any millisecond count. This is not a huge priority on our end, but I wanted to ask in case it was a ...

Remove tag need for Exit() and NoOutput() in analysis

Allow analysis outputting to Analysis Data Reference attributes to make use of the functions Exit() and NoOutput(), instead of requiring only PI Point Data Reference attributes.
