On the platform, when we have more than one annotation on a file, if they are very close to each other (overlapping by a pixel or two), the platform shows the overlapping box so we can select the correct annotation.I understand this as a bug.See the images below:The tags PB2885C and XA2885C are very close to each other. The overlap between them is barely noticeable.However, when you click on either one, both tags appear in the overlapping box:I’ve seen this happen every time we have annotations that are very close to each other.For a better user experience, it would be ideal if, at the moment of the click, the platform could understand that only one annotation is actually inside the click area.This would prevent the overlapping box from appearing and would solve the issue.Is this something we can have fixed?

Dears, How can we get the filled checklist in Infield exported for example in excel format for reporting purposes or archiving, InField's filled Checklist reports (including messages, Notes, and checkboxes) as excels is there a way to have it though an API, or is this feature coming soon? Appreciate you help in this since it’s urgent need.  Thanks!Fatima  

I have a bit of a conundrum here. I am trying to visualize the daily and weekly averages of a time series in Azure Managed Grafana v11.6.3 using the CDF datasource. Raw data is strictly on hourly resolution, and provided in CET/CEST. Grafana is set to browser tz (i.e. CET/CEST). I need the daily average to align with CET midnight (=23:00 UTC). I use these synthetic series parameters: aggregate='average', granularity='24h', alignment=82800000 (82800000 aligns the datapoints to the correct hour if I do aggregate='step_interpolation', granularity='1h'). The returned value is neither the UTC day average or the CET day average. It is exactly the average of the two. So from what I see it seems to be a 30-minute shift/interpolation in the backend. Case in point: CET day average for a specific day is 158,67, while its UTC equivalent is 159,83 (see screenshot). Neither value is found in Grafana for that day at 00:00 - here I see 159,25. Which coincidentally is equal to (158,67+159,83)/2. The ti

As part of the hands on part of the CDF Fundamentals course, I have parsed the pdf but cannot preview it or see its contents when adding it to canvas. After parsing I could also not see the Mapping tab and hence also not “verify” the matches in the diagram. Can anyone assist?

My site has pumps that have two vibration sensors mounted on each pump. Due to harsh cryogenic environment, these sensors often throw off spurious readings.I wrote a fx calculation to develop a 2oo2 voting logic system for vibration alerts on a pump. The code includes logic to weed out the initial high vibration recorded during startup. I saved and scheduled the calculation and chose it to run once every minute (vibration sensor scan rate is 1 second on the chart).The problem is that although the calculation works correctly on the chart display and my calculation ‘flag’ goes to 1 when both sensors exceed my defined threshold value, MONITORING ALERTS configured on the scheduled calculation NEVER GET TRIGGERED and no email alert notifications are received. I need to know what I am doing wrong and how to fix it. 

Hello! I have got a new phone and am not able to restore microsoft authenticator from its backup.Could someboday please reset the MFA Access so that I can set up the authenticator again?

We have configured Asset Centric Location Filter based on the required Dataset Ids. No Asset Subtrees or External Id Prefix are used for the Filter. On the applying the Location Filter on Industrial Tool search, the UI list all the required assets. However, when we try to switch from LIST to HIERARCHY view the UI is unable to render the hierarchy view correctly.The error message in network logs states - <Request had 1 constraint violations. Please fix the request and try again. [<list element> must not be null]>In the request payload could see the parentIds are set to null which could be causing this error.NOTE: If I manually select all the hierarchy levels using the filters option - the hierarchy view works.

An old version(v1.0.something) of PI extractor was setup in a production environment. We stopped that version for about a month and then installed the latest version v4.14 in a new VM. We have specified the backfilling and front filling settings as below but we still can’t see the historical data in CDF, any ideas what would have happened?frontfill: skip: false streaming-interval: 5 delete-data-points: false use-data-pipe: truebackfill: skip: false step-size-hours: 0 to: 0

I have Cognite Hub Account configured in Authenticator App on my phone since some time. Recently I have installed the Authenticator also on an iPad. The CogniteHub account appears on the list , however it wants me to log in. And I can’t remember the password. Is there  a way to get the password from the Authenticator on my phone?

Hello, We have a very big CDF workflow with many parrallel steps. When a step fails, all the steps fails with “404: Session was not found.” (because the failing step deleted the session) all steps are market as failed. It makes debugging and finding the real failing step very tedious ! Any improvement planned for this? Any workaround? Thanks

Hi Team,I'm using the Cognite Toolkit to test the CDF download raw functionality. I’ve observed that the download process fails when the staging database name contains a special character such as :.For example, if the database name is state:odbc, the cdf download raw command fails because it attempts to create a temporary folder with the same name as the staging database. Since : is not a valid character for directory names, the folder creation fails.Additionally, when I try to download the raw data from another database (without special characters), three files are created in the temporary directory:.Table.yamlManifest.yamlRawRows.ndjson.gzCould you please confirm if the RawRows.ndjson.gz file is expected, or should the output be in .csv format?

 Issue SummaryCreating `CogniteFile` instances in Data Modeling Service (DMS) automatically creates unwanted "ghost files" - duplicate file resources that are incomplete and have no external_id, no dataset_id, and no content.

Hello,When testing the new Diagram Parser tool on Vector PDFs, I found that it successfully finds some Assets ingested in the DMS and Symbols from a selected library. However, the Assets only show up as annotations even when verifying them. How can I get the suggested Assets to link to the Diagram in the DMS (i.e. open the diagram and see Assets directly linked to the diagram)? Thanks,Gabriel

During the calculation of adding two time series, if one of them has no value, will the calculated timesseries give me some interpolated value?In the example below, the ‘Error Intern’ series has a value of 2252, but in ‘Total Down Time’ I’m getting 2756.64, which is incorrect—it should also be 2252.Why is it still giving me a linear interpolation value even though I selected the interpolation type as ‘step’?  

Why are we making this change?The CDF CLI was originally designed to streamline application development on top of CDF, specifically focusing on Data Modeling workflows and the generation of type-safe SDKs.However, to ensure we are delivering the highest value to our developer ecosystem, we are refining our product strategy and priorities. The CDF CLI (beta) has not been under active development for some time, and maintaining it to our quality standards no longer aligns with our current roadmap. By discontinuing this tool, we can refocus our resources on the core tools and SDKs that best support your integration with Cognite Data Fusion.If your current CI/CD pipelines or local development environments rely on installing this package, you must take action before February 18th, 2026 to avoid build failures.Timeline of Events February 18th, 2026: The @cognite/cdf-cli package will be unpublished from NPM. You will no longer be able to install it via npm install or yarn add. What do you need

Can we visualize Visio files with.vsd extension in Industrial canvas?

Is there a way to annotate 3D models towards instances from a data model. In the API documentation I only see linking to assets as an option.
