Enable Dynamic Transfer Selection Criteria that PI to CONNECT periodically re-evaluates

Alert if ingress detected to be in a bad state

During 2 recent lighthouse projects, most recently with Kimball Electronics, the machine hosting the PI to CONNECT agent experienced a reboot due to patch installations. PI to CONNECT didn't properly restart (we'll investigate that separately) and...

We were able to get around this (with help of Glenn and Fabio) by utilizing hidden API endpoint which allow us to add Pi Tags by PointID. Customer had 3000 tags (no AF configured) in an excel sheet, attempting to search for these returned 15,...

Add documentation on architectural best practice

When setting up PI to Connect Agent transfers, we need to emphasize in the documentation that we recommend installation of the PI Agent on the same network, and in the same physical location, but not on the same server as the PI server it will be ...
