The permissions at the EF level are derived from template, want to configure AF security for permission of EF level only.

Want to configure AF security that will allow an AF Identity to rename Event Frames once they have been generated, but do not want this Identity to be able to modify the Event Frame Template that the Event Frame is based on. The permissions at the EF level are derived from their associated template. This is stated in the following documentation: https://livelibrary.osisoft.com/LiveLibrary/content/en/server-v11/GUID-B1D6E6F0-8F1E-401D-8574-92BE6DF31A9F

    The security on the created Event Frames is controlled by the template's ReadData and WriteData security settings. For your use case, you would configure the template's security for the identity to NOT have Write permission and to have both ReadData and WriteData permissions. The documentation in the AF SDK's help for AFSecurity class has more information: https://techsupport.osisoft.com/Documentation/PI-AF-SDK/html/T_OSIsoft_AF_AFSecurity.htm
