History Property Sheets

These views display standard Property Sheets for each history. In addition to the default history configuration properties, any slots that are added using the slot sheet view or the metadata browser display in these views.

To add properties to a history (and designate them as metadata, if desired), use the Slot Sheet view or the Metadata Browser view. An example of a history Property Sheet view is shown here.

If the source is accessible, using a Property Sheet to change any of the properties that can be edited, changes the properties at the actual source of the history. For example, if you change a history Full Policy property from Stop to Roll, and if the source is accessible, the history Full Policy property changes on the appropriate history extension or History Import component (Config Overrides property).

 NOTE: If the history is imported from a NiagaraHistoryImport descriptor or NiagaraSystemHistoryImport descriptor that was made via export tags (HistoryImportTag, SystemHistoryImportTag) in the source station, the next export tag Join to or from that station overwrites whatever Full Policy or other property value changes initiated from a history Property Sheet
