MindAccess Developer Plan Subscribers and MindAccess Operator Plan Subscribers

Agent Management

What‘s new?

Clients connected to the MindSphere Broker can get agent access token via using the access token endpoint (/oauth/token) in the AgentManagement.

Anomaly Detection Service

What‘s new?

With this release we introduce the so-called direct interactive mode with the API fetching the time series data from the IoT data storage. The user only needs to specify the asset and time-range and does not need to provide the input time series via the HTTP header. All other parameters of the API stay untouched.

Data Flow Engine

Known issues

  • If an entity is derived from type core.basicdevice only one stream can be deployed.

Identity and Access Management

Known issues

  • If you have problems logging off in Internet Explorer 11, please refer to Overcoming Logout Problems in IE11. 

  • After a user's permissions have been changed using the Identity Management Service, the change is not immediately visible. The user must close the browser and log in again.

IoT and Storage Services: File Service

Known issues

  • For security reasons a strict timeout is enforced. Currently, this leads to the situation that the size of a file which can be uploaded/ downloaded depends on the network bandwidth at client side.

  • When uploading files to the File Service, a file name must not contain blank spaces. Blank spaces in the file name will prevent the file form being stored.

  • After deleting an asset, associated files might still be accessible for up to 30 minutes as this data is deleted asynchronously.

  • After deleting a file, it will take some time (up to 60 seconds) to create the file with the same name again.

  • After creating or deleting the file, it will take some time (up to 3 seconds) to get the file in "search file" API. 

IoT and Storage Services: Time Series Service

Known issues

  • The maximum payload size of a message sent to Time Series Service as part of a PUT request cannot exceed 1 MB.

  • The service will never return more than 2000 records in a response.

  • After deleting an asset, respective time series data might still be accessible for up to 30 minutes as this data is deleted asynchronously.

  • When getting the job status of a bulk import job, the response might not always contain detailed information on errors that occurred.

  • When creating or updating an aspect it might take up to 30 minutes until aggregated data can be read for this aspect. Writing data or reading raw data is possible immediately.

  • When ingesting time series data for multiple asset and aspects in single request, the combination of records should be unique.

  • Get Latest Value with query parameter "latestValue = true" will work with a delay up to 2 hours from the time of ingestion. Refer to developer documentation 'sample' section for more information.

  • While using Get Latest Value with query parameter  "latestValue = true", historic/late arriving data may take more than 1 day to reflect in the response.

IoT and Storage Services: Aggregates Service

What's new?

  • Convenience improvements regarding the usage of Aggregate API usage by developers.

OPC UA Pub Sub

What‘s new?

  • File transfer via HTTPS for OPC UA PS implementation.

  • Blacklisting and Throttling for MQTT.

Trend Prediction Service

What‘s new?

With this release we introduce the so-called direct interactive mode with the API fetching the time series data from the IoT data storage.
