PI to CONNECT

__ParentID metadata should be parent Asset ID, not parent element GUID in AF.

As a connect data services user, it is more helpful to me to know the parent asset id of my asset rather than its parent element GUID. This would allow me to more easily navigate the Asset hierarchy programatically.

Allow administrators to change which CONNECT tenant/Namespace of the agent

As an administrator, the only mechanism to change the tenant or namespace of the installed agent is to completely uninstall and reinstall the agent. You can remove the agent from the Data Services Agent screen, but the Agent Configuration doesn't ...

Transfer metrics are high level only 

When observing the agent transfer metrics, we realized that it is processing streaming/historical data. In order to troubleshoot this more closely, we want to see exactly how those data were generated to the exact tags because the data was in hist...

Allow users to find AF element templates more easily

As I add new elements to a data transfer, I want to easily find an element template by typing its first few letters or expanding the template tree (organized by inheritance). Currently, all I can do is scrolling down a list of templates, which can...

Support derived templates

When replicating AF data to CONNECT, I would like to make sure that all assets configured from templates which are themselves based on derived templates, preserve the template inheritance. For instance, if I have a Mobile Equipment template, with ...
