As a company that needs to share data with external business partners, I want to have a way to provide secure access to our company's data through the Cloud SO THAT we can share data with partners that don't have a PI System, without making external copies of the data, and having a more standard way of sharing data with our external partners.

As a service provider, I need to ensure that our customers can NEVER see another customer's data or even meta-data (that they exist) SO THAT customers can't see any information about their competitors and who we work with.

As a industrial operating company that shares data with partners and service providers, I need to ensure that our data is only accessible to those that we share with SO THAT we can ensure our data and company's intellectual property (IP) is safe and secure.

Ability to define and constrain the scope of data shared. For example, limit the amount of data history shared with an external partner (ex: week of data, month of data, year of data, etc.). Or a specific time range. There should be no limits on when the time range can exist (i.e. able to share data from 5 years ago).

As a contract manufacturer (or partner of a CM), I need to only share data with my partner (customer) while I am manufacturing their product on my equipment SO THAT they don't get sent data from another customer.

The Contract Manufacturing equipment is used to produce products from multiple customers so data can only be shared with each partner when their product is being manufactured.

As a company that receives data from our partners or customers, I need to be able to convert/transform shared data from my partners into different Units of Measures (UOMs) that our company works with SO THAT we can work in the units we're comfortable with and our analytics and visualizations are built on top of.

As a company that shares our data with partners, I want to define what data to share with partners via our existing AF model SO THAT I can use this existing context to know what we're sharing with Partners.

As a Data Steward of my company's data, I need to be able to publish data to partners that's accessible via a REST interface SO THAT our partner that has good technical resources/capabilities can easily access and make use of the data

As a Data Steward, I need the ability to share Event Frames with partners SO THAT they can use this context in understanding the data and/or problems.

As a Data Steward of my company's data, I need to be able to publish data to a .csv file when shared with our partners SO THAT it's easier for them to consume.

As a Data Steward, I would like to rename shared data / metadata that is shared with our partners/customers SO THAT the data is meaningful to them or SO THAT I can protect the source of the data.

Enable Assets to be shared in a Community within OSIsoft Cloud Services (OCS)

Ability to share specific batch manufacturing production data after the batch has been completed (limiting real time data sharing while a batch is in progress).

Enable a way to easily identify what data we're sending (sharing) and receiving (consuming from external orgs) to understand where my data is going and who has access to it.

Have ways to audit who has access to our data.

Ability to share data view with an external business partner.

As a company that receives shared data from our partners or customers, we need to map our partner's data from PI Systems (tags, assets, attributes) into our own Asset Structure / Model SO THAT we can easily run our calculations, visualizations, against the structure we have already built.

This also helps scale our product/service to many customers.

Ability to write data into another account via Communities (data sharing).

For example, one service provider reads data from their customer, uses models and machine learning to generate results that get written back into the customer's Account.

Ability to carve out a data set in one Tenant and transfer ownership of data set to another Tenant.

Examples: plant investments and divestment, connected service customer starts within a namespace within connected service tenant and eventually moves to their own tenant.

Could we use Client API keys with the API Console to access data from another account/tenant?

Be able to share an asset / element relative display with a partner and have it work on the assets that are shared with them.

As a Data Steward of my company's data, I need to be able to publish data to a table when shared with our partners SO THAT it's easier for them to consume.
