Product PI Connectors
Created by Dan Lapsley
Created on Feb 20, 2026

Allow PI Connector for OPC UA to browse OPC UA Servers using Dynamic Namespace Addressing and Virtual Browsing

Background:

Some OPC UA Servers have the concept of Dynamic Namespace Addressing and Virtual Browsing.
The UA Nodes do not exist in the OPC UA Address Space.
Nodeids are created\added to the Address Space only when a Client makes a request for the NodeIds through MonitoredItemsRequest() call.

Request:

Modify the connector so that it first makes a CreateMonitoredItems() call and then only sends the attribute-validating ReadRequest() call, and/or modify the connector such that it can browse such OPC UA servers successfully.
