Support multiple entries for nameFilters.

We would like to GET elements/id/attributes?nameFilter=attr1name;attr2name;attr3name - like an OR statement in SQL. This would be consistent with selectedFields=webid;path;name Currently we would have to either make more or heavier batch calls, or micromanage with categories, or strategically rename attributes to allow wildcard nameFilters like attr?name above. Kind regards, Gregor

    It will be faster (in # of calls and server performance) to use GetAttributesSearch. Check it out here: https://techsupport.osisoft.com/Documentation/PI-Web-API/help/controllers/attribute/actions/getattributesquery.html Let me know if that's not a good option for you, please!
