How can we improve PI Connectors?

Support HTTP Token Authentication to a REST Endpoint

The REST endpoint from which I want to pull data requires token authentication. I would like the UFL Connector to be able to obtain the token given the username and password I enter on the Admin page.

    We need to obtain a JSON Web Token (JWT) and then pass this in authorization header to make a GET request to REST endpoint , not sure if this can be done in UFL connector.

    Hi all, in the current version Api Key or static token is supported. However we still do not support full JWT. For that, an own compinent between the Data Source and PI Connector for UFL is needed.

    JSON Web Tokens will soon be required to connect to all rest services at my company. We currently do have any rest services being published by the PI Connector for UFL but we do connect to serveral rest endpoints. So this functionality will be crucial to our success.
