Add ‘No Replace’ mode to UFL Connector

Currently the only PI Data Archive ‘Store Mode’ options are ‘Insert’ and ‘Update’. I’m currently working on a project where a large quantity of data needs to be downloaded daily from the internet using the REST client node. To reduce chances of da...

Configure target PI/AF/DB at datasource level

Actually the UFL Connector sends data to all of the listed PI Data Archives and AF Servers in the server list configured in administration page, so it's not possible to send different data to different PI DA or AF databases with a single UFL Conne...

Add scan time offset option to UFL Connector

Use case: The UFL Connector needs to read a huge data set from a REST Server which is updated once a day. The only way to control when the data fetch occurs is by starting the connector at the desired time. The Connector however currently waits fo...

Allow the PI Connector for UFL to call a REST endpoint using the POST method

I have come across customer requirements asking for the possibility of calling a REST endpoint using POST, from a PI UFL connector running as a "REST Client". So far, the workaround has been to develop an intermediary custom script which would ca...

Allow users to rename PI Connector for UFL point source

PI Connector for UFL allows for configuring point prefix, but does not allow for modifying point source. Some users prefer browsing tags by point source, and may want separate point sources for different UFL connectors.

Scan only when the data folder changes

Specifying the scan time seems unnecessary. Instead, the PI Connector for UFL should only scan the data folder if a change to the data folder's contents is detected. Surely some sort of event listener can be set up to achieve this?

Configurable OSIsoft\PI Connectors\UFL.ConnectorHost\ location defined during installation

Currently, the folder is created by default in %ProgramData%, which means that the output folder, storing the processed file, is created in %ProgramData%\OSIsoft\PI Connectors\UFL.ConnectorHost\Output\{DSName}\. Since %ProgramData% is generally o...

Re-Order Data Source List

It would be helpful to be able to re-order (e.g. sort) data sources being used by the PI Connector for UFL. As the number of data sources grow it can be difficult to find a particular data source, especially if those data sources have similar nam...

Enable the UFL Connector to read data from REST Endpoints

Many devices and services (including the PI Web API) offer data via REST endpoints. It would be very useful if the UFL Connector could connect to such REST Endpoints and consume the data without the need of a 3rd party tool. Built-in support for J...

Allow overriding of point and data security newly created points

As a PI Admin, I want to specify my desired point and data security in the UFL configuration files for the new tags that the connector creates. I want to be able to set this on an instance by instance basis to override the inheritance from the PIP...
