Conversion of non-ASCII characters for tag names

  • Last UpdatedFeb 27, 2023

If the data source contains non-ASCII characters that are used to create new tags in Data Archive, the non-ASCII characters in tag names will be converted to their Unicode hex representation if necessary. This is because Data Archive only directly supports ASCII characters. For example, a character such as "Π" will be converted to "U+03A0" in a Data Archive tag name. This can be decoded using a Unicode conversion application or online tool. For more information on which characters are valid in tag names for Data Archive, see the OSIsoft Knowledge Base Article, Can non-English characters be used in tag names, modules names, module database alias names, and properties names.
