In CDF: opportunity to configure "default" timeseries for the tag (asset)New

Now it's challenging to find the correct timeseries, especially for OPCUA, where we have many service signals. It would be good to have a way of prioritizing it in all the UIs, including Canvas and Search. Could be a flag in the timeseries properties or any other way.

Asset Overview "Asset" tab defaulted to Parent instead of PathGathering Interest

When viewing an asset in search, if you click the asset tab in the overview window, that tab is defaulted to the “Asset Parent”, but path would be a more appropriate default, showing details for the currently selected asset.

[Charts] Improve the calculation creationGathering Interest

When creating calculations, the four basic arithmetic operations are some of the most frequently used features. However, in the current Charts experience, creating even slightly complex expressions requires configuring a large number of Functions.For example, the Add Function can only add two time series at a time, so even for a simple expression like A + B + C + D + E, you need to place four separate Add Functions.Could this process be made simpler so that basic arithmetic can be built more easily?Ideally, it would be great if users could enter an expression directly on the “Create calculation” screen—for example:A + (B - C) / (B + C) * 100 + D × Eand Charts would automatically generate the necessary Functions.If the expression format followed something similar to Excel, most users would find it intuitive and easy to use.

Possibility to Add More Detailed Data in Email Alerts from ChartsGathering Interest

Hi everyone! I’d like to know if there’s a way to edit the information included in email alerts generated by Charts. Currently, the email only shows the tag and states that the limit has been exceeded, but it would be helpful to include the actual value that exceeded the limit, rather than simply noting the exceedance. Is there any way to customize this information in Charts?

CDF: Full Screen Document ViewerNew

Within the CDF search tool, it would be helpful to have the option to toggle the preview of the file to be full-screen, to better preview the information. Having a compressed window for a document containing a large amount of information is tedious to zoom and scroll. The only alternative is to download every document, but this defeats the purpose of using Cognite.The same logic would be helpful with Canvas as well, the ability to select a document and toggle a full-screen rendering, possibly with a pagination type toggle that could flip through the different pages that have been sequenced in the Canvas.

Maintain 3D Equipment ListPlanned for development

When opening the 3D models in Maintain, they have an equipment search dropdown, that aligns to the data model’s asset list. Not all of these assets will contextualize to the 3D model, it would be nice if the dropdown filtered itself down to only the equipment that could be found within the model.

Change the API end point for search with Filter by name in CanvasImplemented

When a user navigates to a Canvas and selects Add data, then searches for an asset, using the Filter by name option does not automatically bring the matching file to the top of the search results. Instead, it highlights the matching file within the existing list.This is due to the search using /documents/list instead of /documents/search when a user navigates to an asset and searches files using "filter by name..".Can we have the search use /documents/search instead of /documents/list when using “filter by name”?This will return the search results based on the search relevance.This feature request was created on behalf of ​@Mansoor Ahmed

【Canvas】Displaying Time Series Values as IntegersGathering Interest

Canvas has a feature that allows us to display the latest time series values as numeric values, and this is a function we use very frequently.For this feature, there is an option to adjust the number of decimal places shown. However, would it be possible to extend this functionality slightly so that values can be displayed as integers, without any decimal places?For example, for time series data that records production batch numbers, displaying decimal places feels somewhat unintuitive. In such cases, displaying the value as an integer would be more appropriate and easier to understand.

Enforce a max on concurrent workflowsImplemented

In Data workflows I have a case where i would like a workflow to run every minute, but in certain cases the runs are longer than one minute. In this case, to maintain consistency in runs I do not want concurrent runs. In this case it would be helpful with an option to enforce non-concurrency in data workflows, as in if a data workflow already runs, when the trigger is set to run, the run is skipped.

Inquiry About Extending Charts Axis Configuration for Operational MonitoringNew

We use Charts daily for real-time operational monitoring in oil refining operations, and it has become an essential tool for our engineers thanks to its automatic data updates and reliability.We would like to ask whether it might be possible to extend Charts so that the X-axis can be configured using values other than timestamps. For example, plotting control valve opening on the X-axis and actual flow rate on the Y-axis would be very useful for our operations. We would appreciate it if users could freely choose what is used on the X-axis.At the moment, since this is not supported in Charts, we rely on custom Streamlit applications built by Cognite engineers. In the future, we would like to place multiple such graphs on Canvas and monitor them on a single screen. From a usability perspective, implementing this capability directly in Charts—rather than through custom apps—would be much easier for users.We would greatly appreciate your thoughts on whether this kind of enhancement could be considered in the future.Thank you very much for your time and continued support.散布図表示アプリ | Cognite Data Fusion

Data Model - Transaction Commit/Rollback CapabilitiesGathering Interest

Hello,We wanted to check if we can have transaction capabilities when inserting or deleting data in data model in Cognite using SDK.Right now we have requirement to insert or delete into multiple views corresponding to single operation on UI Application, so either operation should be marked as done completely and data should be affected in all views or operation should be failed and data should not be affected partially. So either whole transaction is committed or whole is rollbacked.If it is already available can you share the documentation link.If not available can we take this as requirement. Please share ETA around the same.

Function for updating group capabilitiesNew

Hi Team,We are required to update the capabilities of existing CDF groups to add features like “Streams and Records”, “Functions and Workflows”, etc. Since, it is required to do in the production, so we tried to automate it through python scripts.However, we realized there is no function to update the group capabilities in python sdk.One option is to delete the existing groups and re-create a new one with the updated capabilities, but doing so in production environment posses some risks, like pipeline failed after deleting and before re-creating the groups, etc.Another option is to manually add the new capabilities, however, this practice should also be avoided in Prod env.Hence, suggesting you add the update function.

Not possible to select multiple columns when using "Filter by name"Gathering Interest

To change the columns that are shown when selecting a specific View I use the “Select column” functionality. If I select multiple properties from the list and press Apply, it works well.However, if I locate the property by “Filter by name” search, select, and then repeat for another property, only the last property I selected will be added when I press Apply. You see the same behavior if you “Filter by name”, select a property, and then remove the filter characters either by deleting the characters or “x them out”, the selection is removed.This is a very unexpected behavior, and confuses users. It makes it very cumbersome if you want to add multiple properties from a very long list of properties (where you would prefer searching for the property)

【Charts】Shift Time Series: Historical Data Overlay IssueNew

At our company, we frequently need to compare specific time‑series trends with historical data. For example, we may want to compare the temperature increase after a plant startup with the trend observed during a previous startup two years earlier.Currently, the “Shift time series” function in Charts allows us to overlay the same tag with a time offset. However, to do so, we must expand the global time range to cover the entire historical span (for example, setting the range from 2023 to 2025), even when our actual analysis focus is limited to a single year such as 2025. This makes detailed analysis more difficult and reduces readability when working with a clearly defined target period. Ideally, we would like to set the display range only to the target time span, while still being able to retrieve and overlay historical data from earlier periods using a time shift.This request has also been raised multiple times in the past, including by Mr. TAKASE , and we understand that many other users similarly recognize this as an important and widely needed feature.While it is technically possible to address this requirement using a custom application, custom applications cannot be embedded into Canvas. Since our primary goal is to visualize and share these comparisons directly within Canvas, this limitation makes a custom‑app‑based solution impractical. For this reason, we strongly believe that this capability should be implemented directly within Charts.We previously found a similar request in an earlier post (linked below), but given the importance and recurring nature of this requirement across users, we would like to submit this request again.https://hub.cognite.com/product-user-community-428/charts-shift-time-series-function-limitations-on… https://hub.cognite.com/ideas/cognite-charts-ability-to-calculate-by-subtracting-two-different-time…

【InField】Set Names for Uploaded Photos and VideosGathering Interest

In the InField app, it is possible to add comments to photos and videos when uploading them, but it is not possible to specify the file name.The file names appear to be (probably) inherited from the default names assigned by devices such as iPhones or Android phones. In most cases, even when checking the file name later, it is difficult to tell what the file actually contains.For this reason, I believe that having a feature that allows users to freely change the file name at the time of upload would be very useful for utilizing the information later.

Excel plugin for CDF with PI Datalink-like functionalityNew

We need an Excel-based solution for CDF that can serve as a practical alternative to PI Datalink, which is currently widely used across existing Aker BP assets.Today, importing data from CDF through OData is possible, but it is limited and cumbersome compared with the functionality and user experience provided by PI Datalink. My experience is that OData can be made to work in Excel, but it does not provide the same efficient workflow for engineering analysis, validation, and reporting.For users unfamiliar with PI Datalink, its main strength is that Excel cells can be directly linked to data tags. These links can return:current values archived values calculated values such as average, minimum, and maximum raw values based on a timestamp or time interval time references taken from other cells in the workbookA particularly important capability is dynamic date handling. If one cell contains the date or time reference, the user can change that single cell and automatically refresh the entire sheet — or selected calculations — for a different period. This makes it very efficient to reuse the same workbook for new dates, validation cases, or reporting periods.This functionality is highly valuable for:quality checking and validation of time series data testing calculations and assumptions transparent engineering and production reporting fast ad hoc analysis directly in Excel workflows where calculation traceability is importantRequested capabilityWe therefore need an Excel plugin or equivalent Excel integration for CDF that provides a user experience similar to PI Datalink, including:cell-based linking to time series/tags support for current, historical, raw, and aggregated values support for cell-referenced timestamps and time intervals simple refresh/recalculation when date cells are changed usability that makes the solution practical for day-to-day engineering workWithout this type of functionality, moving users from PI Datalink to CDF will be difficult for many common engineering and reporting workflows.

InField: Find all check lists generated from a templateGathering Interest

In previous versions of InField it was possible to go into a template and find all checklists that was generated from that template. The same functionality is not longer available.For finding historical data for a particular template it is very beneficial to be able to search for a certain template and find all check lists. Its easy to compare the results that have been logged for each list.A proposal for how this can be done is to add a new column in the check list section in the overview tab for “Template”. If the user can choose a template from here, it is possible to find all checklists that have been genereated from that template.

【Charts】Sample Use Cases for Calculation OperatorsImplemented

Charts provides a variety of built‑in functions. However, aside from intuitive operators like basic arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), many of the other operators and functions are not very familiar.Because of this, it is often difficult to understand what kind of calculations are being performed and in what situations these functions can be useful. As a result, there are many functions that we are unable to take advantage of, simply because we cannot easily imagine their use cases.If we are overlooking functions that are actually useful, that would be a great missed opportunity. Therefore, I would really appreciate it if you could provide sample calculations and concrete use cases for these functions somewhere.Ideally, it would be fantastic to have something like built‑in help documentation for Charts functions, with direct links accessible from the Charts interface itself.

Several actions in the "Explore and select your data" view in Charts kicks you out and into Search, when using Data ModellingParked

When adding data in Charts via the “+Add data”→ “Add time series”→ “Explore and select your data” the behavior using classic vs data modelling is very different.  By using a CDM extended data model we see that a series of actions related to Assets push you out of the “Explore and select your data” and into full Search. We do not see the same behavior when using classic data model.Here is a non-exhaustive list of actions that kick you out of ChartsFrom an Asset, clicking on parent, an asset from the path, or children  from the “assets” reference  From a File, clicking on any Asset reference From an annotated file, clicking on the “Open” button on the popup when you click an Asset annotation From an Activity or TimeSeries, clicking on Asset references Clicking on any Asset in the “bread crumb” trail in the  “Explore and select your data”  Clicking on the back button in the “Explore and select your data”, if the last item in the “bread crumb” is an Asset What does not kick you out:Maneuvering the asset hierarchy using the “Tree view” Clicking on any non-Asset links (what I’ve seen so far) Clicking “Open” on the file link annotation from an annotated file Clicking on Files in the “bread crumb” trail in the  “Explore and select your data”  Clicking on the back button in the “Explore and select your data”, if the last item in the “bread crumb” is not an Asset Except using the “Tree view”, it seems like any Asset related action kicks you out. We do not see the same behavior using classic data model. If this is related to how we have extended our Asset, it would be good to have this documented so we can adjust our UI data model

When searching for data in Charts, you are often "kicked" out and over to SearchParked

When clicking “+Add data” and “Add time series”, you can search for other data types, like assets. However, if you try to follow links, like parent of child asset, you are kicked out of Charts and pushed over to full Search. This means it is impossible to use the asset hierarchy to locate relevant timeseries. Similar issues are seen if you use the files (like P&ID) to enter the asset (to find the timeseries) The test was done one a CDM based data model
