Create a PI trust

To create a PI trust, you need to know connection types (API or SDK). The type of connection determines what information you can use to define the trust. At a minimum, for a new PI trust you have to specify the following:

• The name of the trust (must be unique on the Data Archive server)

• The name of the PI identity, PI group, or PI user against which this trust is defined (this determines the access permissions granted to the connecting application)

• One optional specification from the following list:

  • Application name

  • IP information as a network path or IP address and netmask for the connecting computer

  • Windows account information (SDK only) (only for SDK applications)
