Return the Values of Timestamp Data Items in Timestamp Format

The values of timestamp tags or AF attributes should be formatted as timestamp in Excel by default. Currently they are returned as integers, and then users have to manually convert them into timestamps.

Allow MQTT adapter to parse timestamps in local time without specifying a timezone suffix to each timestamp

We would like the MQTT Adapter to be able to interpret timestamps in local time without needing to explicitly state the timezone or UTC offset in each timestamp, but for the adapter to always interpret the timestamps as being in a specific timezon...

Stream-level debugging

As a PI System Administrator, I'd like to be able to trace values being received, and subsequently being sent by the Adapter, similar to PI Interfaces. Having the ability to trace/log timestamps and values for specific streams would greatly help ...

Allow default settings (eg. disable compression) for tags created by Adapters

We would like to be able to specify default settings for tags created by the adapters. This would include things such as disabling compression for tags on this adapter (without disabling it as the default for all new tags on the Data Archive). Thi...

PI Datalink officially supports Excel 2024

My customer is using PI Datalink with Excel2024 instead of Excel365 because policy prevents the addition or update of each person's Excel functionality. I would like to add Excel2024 to the PI DataLink Compatibility Matrix for these customers.

Permit non-protected references

The secrets references is a very useful addition but they are only permitted for "protected" parameters. It would be useful to also create references for non-protected parameters. Using references for non-protected parameters would help with creat...

Allow for a timeshift of certain tags, depending on process time delay

To be able to delay some signals by x amount of hours would allow save tremendous amount of data handling into Excel. Some apps like Visplore offer that right at the display. I'm sure that the PI team can come up with a solution for that.

Bring back PIAttributeMaskToTag

Please, bring back the PIAttributeMaskToTag function. It disappeared after PI Datalink 2019SP1 Patch 1. Emulating it with a VBA function calling on an AF SDK COM wrapper is a lot of work and, most importantly, much slower that a native DataLink im...
