Retrieve event-frame attributes by searching

Before you can retrieve event-frame attributes, you need to Specify a database.

You can use PI Builder to search for event-frame attributes in a PI AF database, and then retrieve them into Microsoft Excel.

1. On the PI Builder tab, click Event Frames > Find Event Frame Attributes to open the Event Frame Attribute Search window.

2. Specify which attributes you want to find and in which event frames to look, and then click Search to retrieve the matching event-frame attributes into the Search results table.

3. In the Search results table, select the event-frame attributes to retrieve into Excel, and then click OK.

4. In the Select Object Types and Column Headers window, select the column headers to include in the worksheet, and then click OK to retrieve the event-frame attributes.

   Note: Use the Template field to retrieve attributes from a template. The attributes defined by the selected template are displayed in the Attributes Columns (from Template 'name') group in the Object Types list.
