  1. Complete PI Web API documentation

    As a PI Web API user I want to know exactly what kind of Body Parameters (their defaults and description) are supported by PI Web API methods. The current sample requests are not sufficient because they do not describe the values for body parameter, though many parameters have unique restrictions.

    Here is an example of desired content:

    We have received a lot of feedback on this. We are looking at on-line help with better samples of queries and responses. We are looking at some web frameworks for offering a live “Try It” feature for PI Web API. We are also looking at comprehensive search within the PI Web API help system.

  2. Add list of obsolete method/object in release note or help file for new releases

    Posted on behalf of a customer:
    Currently, we should go into method/object details page in order to check if the method/object is obsolete. Documenting this as a list should help any application developers to know the changes clearly.

  3. Complete AF SDK documentation

    Include protected (C# syntax) member, for example in data reference documentation. I developed more than 20 data reference plugins with functions not provided by Formula and AF analyses and needed to override some not documented methods of the base class.
