Retrieve all categories

You can use PI Builder to retrieve all categories from a PI AF database into Microsoft Excel.

Prerequisite: Before you can retrieve categories, you need to Specify a database.

1. On the PI Builder tab, click Library > Categories > All Categories.

2. In the Select Object Types and Column Headers window, select the objects and column headers to include in the worksheet, and then click OK.

   PI Builder retrieves all the categories from the current PI AF database into the worksheet and fills the selected columns with available data.
