We have many calculations following this basic pattern - take recorded values of one attribute, apply a filter (using FilterData), then retrieve values of a second attribute at the filtered timestamps of the first attribute. Currently, we cannot r...

For unitless values you can assign a unit of measure by using the Convert() function. To further convert this to another UoM in the same class you need to nest another Convert() function. For example, Convert(Convert(3600, "s"), "h")) It would sim...

Pi Notifications should have smarts to exclude or N/A message body content for excluded attributes created from templates. Currently if we have say 4 attributes in an element template, and some instance elements have a couple of those "excluded", ...

We have a use case that could be solved very easy if we have had this as a column in the data archive. Use case: We have made PI data availible through an own made API to our clients. They use this API to fetch data from our database and into thei...

As this post points out, "The PI Point DR allows you to specify whether you want the StartTime or EndTime of the event frame. All other OSIsoft data references - most notably Table Lookup, Formula, StringBuilder - do not give you this option. Thos...

We often write outputs at close to event frame attributes that reference a PI Point attribute on the referenced element. The analysis will not write to an EF attribute if it points to a referenced element attribute at the child level. In the examp...

Consider implementation performance analysis service statistics in AF Explorer which is now performed in a complicated way by exporting data to Excel, rearranging and viewing in a pivot table. It would also be useful to be able to retrieve that da...

Data scientists are 70% of their time busy with cleaning data. In the pi system, we can se lo and hi limits, but dataquality is more than that. It's also about consistent and continuous datarate, strange sensor signals,...Within Pi, this is still ...

In PI System Explorer → File → Database → Edit Security, the "Permissions for" box always lists all permissions that can possibly be set within PI AF, regardless of the selected objects. Instead, only permissions that apply to the selected objects...

After installation, the PI Analysis Service can run under a local account even if the PI Asset Framework is installed on a different computer, since NTLM authentication can be used between both computers. However, the PI Server install kit does no...
