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.
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.
Hi all,The point is to get the possibility to enlarge the All Categories column in the Search. This should be useful if views names are too long to facilitate the navigation.
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.
As a user, I want the ability to efficiently and seamlessly bulk move activities within the Gantt chart. This feature will significantly enhance my user experience by eliminating the need to manually relocate each activity individually.
Subscribing to or unsubscribing from alerts one by one can be cumbersome, even when they belong to the same group. It would be helpful to have a feature that allows bulk subscription of alerts within charts.
When a user have entered a specific tag/functional location and wants to open the P&ID for that tag it is a need to highlight the tag in the P&ID so its easy for the users to identify where the tag is in the diagram. This was enabled in our previous version of InField, but does not work anymore. In our current solution, all tags are highlighted.
When using the search functionality on desktop and handheld device it would be great if the users gets a drop down menu showing the previous search history. Often a user needs to enter or re-enter the same tags during a day and can choose a previous tag from the drop down list. Alternative is writing down tags digitally or in a notebook which are not optimal solutions.
As we are aggregating more and more activities since our go-live, we noticed a need to export more than 5000 activities from Maintain to Excel or Csv.
There is a need to generate a check list for all functional location in the object list of a work order in SAP independent of operation. Currently it is possible to generate check list based on operations/tags. I.e if I choose one operation and click “Create and assign” I will generate a check list for all f.locs assigned to the operation.Sometimes it is a need to just get a check list for the whole work order where each f.loc in the object list is listed once. Using the current method this is not possible to get. The exisitng functionality of operation/f.loc checklists works great! This is just needed in addition to what we already have.
Hello Cognite team,I would like to request consideration for adding the possibility of sum aggregation for synthetic time series. This feature would greatly enhance our data analysis capabilities and provide more comprehensive insights.We kindly request your consideration of this enhancement in your future development plans. Our technical team is available to discuss this in further detail and to provide any additional information that might be helpful.Best regards,Ievgen
Many batch process customers use a long standing approach to batch management where a batch is designated the “best batch”, the benchmark all others are compared to, often called the “Golden” batch. CDF can provide batch and or other time period comparisons by using Atlas AI. This can provide key differences between batches for sure. The visualization is where there is a functionality gap. They want to see batch parameters overlaid on “Golden” parameters. I do not know how to accomplish this except with an AI driven dashboard. Attached is a basic example of output that would be useful. This was generated by co-pilot based on Atlas AI output.
We would like to ask if the -> open button under files (see below screenshot) can be coded in such way that it can be opened in a new tab in the browser.
Hello,We’re currently having some issues with pulling our PI data from Cognite since we have several PI tags that are string timseries vs numeric (as in rather than having 0 or 1, the timeseries shows open or closed). It appears that Cognite cannot handle string timeseries because they cannot be aggregated, however some of the logic that’s built in to our devices can only be pulled in this manner. We’d at least need a way for Cognite to convert the data pulled as strings as numeric and maybe auto assigning numeric values to each string event? A bonus would be to have an associated conversion of those numeric values to the associated string from the pullExample:Cognite pulls timseries EXAMPLE.TIME.VALVE.A.STATUS that contains “Open” and “Closed” and auto assigns 0 to “Open” and 1 to “Closed”There’s then an associated ‘conversion’ that states for timeseries EXAMPLE.TIME.VALVE.A.STATUS:0 = “Open”1 = “Closed” then Cognite pulls another timeseries EXAMPLE.TIME.VALVE.B.STATUS and happens to assign 0 to “Closed” and 1 to “Open” for whatever reasonThere’s then an associated ‘conversion’ that states for timeseries EXAMPLE.TIME.VALVE.B.STATUS:0 = “Closed”1 = “Open”
For classic data model, the UI can roll up timeseries from all children, which is a very useful function allowing you to reduce the amount of traversing to find all relevant timeseries. This functionality seems to be missing for data modelling. Is this functionality missing, or is it a particular requirement to the data model that we have not met in our model?It would be good to either document better how to make this happen with data modelling, or reintroduce it if it is missing.
ProblemIn checklist items today, users can only see the time series description, not the actual tag name. Because assets often have multiple associated tags, it can be difficult to determine which time series a checklist item is referencing. This is especially challenging when users click through to view trends and must manually identify the correct tag.Proposed EnhancementDisplay the time series tag name directly on the checklist item (alongside or in addition to the description).Value / BenefitsImproved operator usability: Newer or less experienced operators are not yet familiar with tag naming conventions, making it harder for them to confidently navigate from checklist items to the correct trend. Faster troubleshooting: Power users and IT frequently need to diagnose checklist or tag write‑back issues. Seeing the tag name directly eliminates the need to switch back and forth between checklists and templates to identify the correct time series. Reduced ambiguity: When multiple tags exist for a single asset, explicitly showing the tag name removes guesswork and reduces the risk of viewing or writing to the wrong signal.Who BenefitsOperations (especially new operators) Power users IT / support teams maintaining checklist templates and tag write‑back logicThis small UI enhancement would meaningfully improve clarity, efficiency, and supportability of checklist‑driven workflows.Mockup Example: @Andrew Montgomery @Mike Hammons
Currently Cognite Canvas allows users to perform below steps (example)1. Add Engineering document file2. Add Asset contextualized with the Engineering document file3. Add Events (Work Order, Notifications, Operations etc) contextualized with the asset where each event is a separate container/tile on the Canvas. Is it possible to add a tabular view for all the linked Events with an Asset instead of a single tile per event view.Also if the tabular view could have features to sort and filter based on the available event properties.
With streamlit being part of the CDF landing page now, it would be beneficial to have the ability to create charts from the Python SDK so that the chart can be immediately placed on a canvas as part of a Root Cause Analysis investigation.
Its a need to have the schedules tab available for all users using InField. As a technician it is beneficial to see all upcoming check lists in a schedule view just as the lead technician is able to today. This gives a much better overview of all lists coming up in the next week.The only downside is that the technicians don’t need to set a check list to “Ready” status. Its proposed to give technicians a display version of schedules, without the possibility of setting lists to “Ready”.
In the overview tab its currently not possible to see who the checklists are assigned to. Its only possible to see if the checklist is assigned to a person. In the schedules section, there is a good solution for this, where you can see the initials of the person who is assigned the check list, and when holding the mouse over the name, one can see the entire name. Adding the same functionality to overview tab would be very beneficial
On the hand held device, add an option in the search section of the app to “scan” a functional location using the camera. Once the functional location is scanned in the field, the user automatically is brought into the detail section of the functional location.Using gloves for manually typing in f.loc in the field is cumbersome and adding an automatic scan function will save time for the end users.
In the overview tab in InField, be able to filter on all colums. As of now, only very few of the columns can be filtered on. An example is provided below: Today one can for example not filter on ones own discipline(Work Center) or Work plan (Revision) which is crucial for finding your own relevant work orders. Filters are both relevant for work order and check list tabs.
Today the CogniteUnit is not shown under the Properties in Search. It is also not used in the timeseries Preview tab. It would be helpful to be able to search and filter on CogniteUnit, and do unit conversion in the timeseries Preview
Currently, the SharePoint File Extractor fails with a ValueError: Couldn't obtain document library id when attempting to extract files from a document library located within a nested subsite (a subsite or deeper).The extractor successfully connects and works for standard site structures, but fails exclusively on deep hierarchies. Troubleshooting confirms this is not a permissions issue, and the URLs are fully accessible via a standard web browser.Technical Context & Limitation:The current Cognite SharePoint extractor expects the URL schema to follow a single-level subsite structure:https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/<parent-site-name>/<subsite-name>/library-nameWhen provided with a multi-level subsite URL (e.g., https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/<site-name>/<subsite1>/<subsite2>/library-name), the extractor attempts to treat the intermediate subsites as document libraries. Because the extractor currently uses a trial-and-error method to differentiate between a library and a subsite, recursively checking multi-level nested sites would generate an excessively high number of API error calls, potentially hitting rate limits.Requested Solution:Enhance the SharePoint File Extractor to support multi-level subsite traversal. This may require evaluating and leveraging alternative Microsoft Graph API endpoints that can efficiently map directory structures without relying on the current trial-and-error query method, thereby avoiding API rate limit issues.
there is no option to edit a chart directly from canvas. you have to open the time series in charts. Save as a new name and then reopen canvas and manually add the new chart. It should be possible to edit the chart directly from canvas, save and then update the canvas.
