Migrate Known Server Table (KST) configuration to a file.

PI data archive configuration is currently stored in the windows registry and is difficult to access and manipulate unless you know what you are doing. The AF Server configuration is stored in an AFSDK.Config file. This file is simple, easy to rea...

Limit rate of published changes through PI Builder

A lot of PI servers we work with have a high system load. When we create, change or delete PI Points in PI Builder we have to do a few hundred points at a time and monitor the Pending Events counter from Update Subsystem on the PI server to make s...

Add feature to AF Table to quickly pull up all Attribute Table Lookup references to that table

Add OpenOnly and CloseOnly capabilities in PI-AF notification formats

Add Check In / Check Out button to PI Builder

It would be useful to add a Check In and Check Out button to PI Builder. So if any undesired change is made, it can be undone.

Refrain from creating PI Points when AF Analytics is doing an expensive calcultion

Enable the compatibility of PI Builder with Microsoft 365/O365

With the existing versions, the PI Builder plugin doesn't work with O365 in its full capability. It would be great to have the compatibility setup from PI Builder plugin with MS365.
