Greetings and Welcome to the Windchill Workgroup for OSLC IntegrationOpen Services primarily drives the concept of Digital Product Traceability for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC), an open community that defines a set of specifications to integrate software development. OSLC has evolved and emerged into Application Lifecycle Management and Product Lifecycle Management domains to ease product development by defining a set of rules for the tools used by these domains to share and present information. We are excited to provide an opportunity for you to participate in the "Windchill Workgroup for OSLC Integration".  This working group is a collaboration between PTC and customers to review business cases or use cases related to the OSLC integration. This Workgroup intends to hear from all our customers about the use cases or end-to-end flows you would like to see in OSLC integration which is really beyond the asks of the OSLC Specification and delving into User Experience of Digita

Hi, is there a way to view a development path without creating a (variant) sandbox? I know that we can view a project revision - it can also be on a development path. But this is not the top of the development path. Any ideas?

Hey All,                  We would appreciate  less than 3 minutes of your time to provide us input on the need for a formula editor to be included as part of authoring "Requirements & Test Cases".   https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/wrvscommuninitquiz   Thanks Kartik  

Attached a document that explains the Windchill Modeler “reverse lookup” service API, which is a part of the Modeler OSLC Server. It’s designed to return Modeler items that have OSLC links to a remote item, such as an RV&S requirement, a DOORS requirement or a Windchill PLM part. An OSLC client needs to provide the OSLC Resource URI and the reverse lookup service returns any model items that are linked to it. regards,Patrick

Hello all,   Does anyone know how to get the live item ID or the single item ID for the versioned item for a document in ptc integrity? Thanks for you help. RN

Hello All,                With the onset of the Windchill RV&S 13.0 release, the product is moving to Java 11 with TLS v1.3 This means the compatibility of clients from older releases that were based on Java 8 TLS v1.2 cannot be guaranteed to work with Windchill RV&S 13.0 When you plan the upgrade to Windchill RV&S 13.0 you must consider upgrading the various components of your deployment to match the server release. Since this topic relates to the specifics of your deployments, for any further clarifications on this topic, please drop an email to – kaoak@ptc.com with subject <Customer Name> Upgrade from  <Source Server version> - Windchill RV&S 13.0   Thanks Kartik

Hi Community,   Hope everyone is doing well.   Does anyone of you has some experience related with enabling Generic SAML2.0 on Windchill RV&S? The use case is to connect Windchill RV&S with PingFederate and then PingFederate with Microsoft Azure. Here our Windchill RV&S is considered as Service Provider, PingFederate is CAS (Central Auth Server) and Microsoft Azure as Identity Provider.   If anyone of you has enabled this at your side (practically not theoretically :P) let me know please. I have some questions and doubts around and it can really be helpful for me.Looking forward to get some positive response.Vielen Dank / Many Thanks,Kapil Jain

Hello, I have a similar question. How can i call a .vbs or .ps1 script from the javascript thats triggered in RVS?

Thanks  

Hello, We have started the evaluation of Windchill RV&S a few months ago, but we are stuck with an issue we met, so I come here to get some advices.   Here is the background : We have a set of documents that belong to the same project.They are versioned individually after some evolutions.Finally, we create some baselines that gather some of these versioned documents.The point is that we would like to list which nodes from these documents have changed between two baselines.By "have changed", I mean "the values of some defined fields are not the same in the considered baselines".   We know it is possible to compare each document side by side to see the differences in their items for the selected baselines but it is not global and not usable as a list.   Here is a short example : let's consider only two documents DA and DB.DA contains nodes : NA1 to NAxDB contains nodes : NB1 to NByDocument DA is updated and a new version is created : 1.0Document DB is updated too and a

Hello,somebody might be able to tell me how to address a block. This is a problem for example with the symbol style or also with scripts. Which Model Item Type do I have to choose to color a Block and a Block Property.

"Strikethrough a Requirements Text as per status change" can this functionality possible in PTC Integrity ? If I change the state of Requirement to Rejected/Deleted then the Text of requirement should change to Strikethrough . Example RQ, State=Open Text=ABCD  Then,, RQ, State=Rejected Text=ABCD 

Would like to invoke/call from a Integrity Server Java script a powershell script.   The process would take an email address from inside an Integrity Java script and call out to a powershell script The powershell would extract user log in id from Active Directory based upon their email address that was passed in to it.  The powershell would pass back the user log in id to the calling Integrity java script.   Similar to how getUserBean( ) lookupbean instead using email address would be a great option

Hi,i want to get the email address from a user inside a trigger script using the Integrity API. I've used mksapiviewer --iplocal im users --fields=email USERNAME to check if there is an output at all and it returned a response including a work item containing the field "Value" where the address is stored. I've triedvar eb = bsf.lookupBean("siEnvironmentBean");var apibean = eb.createAPISessionBean();var command = new Packages.com.mks.api.Command("im", "users");command.addOption(new Packages.com.mks.api.Option("fields", "email");command.addSelection(USERNAME);var response = apibean.executeCmd(command);var workitems = response.getWorkItems();while(workitems.hasNext()){   var thisItem = workitems.next();   var val = thisItem.getField("Value");}Somewhere has to be a mistake since i get a NoSuchElementException: ValueDoes somebody have an idea where the problem is??Thanks!

Dear all, we like to reserve one or more licenses for a specific subnet or a couple of computers.  We tried to add an option file to the mks daemon but it seems not to be parsed. Our license looks like this now:   # Do not change the following three lines#_PTC_CUSTOMER_NUMBER: xxx#_PTC_INSTALL_SITE_NUMBER: xxx#_PTC_CONTRACT_NUMBERS: xxxSERVER xxx xxxVENDOR MKSDEAMON MKS "C:\Program Files\FlexNet Publisher License Server Manager" "C:\Program Files\FlexNet Publisher License Server Manager\licenses\MKS\user_options.txt"   and in the user_options.txt file we put: RESERVE 1 MKSIntegrityManager-Float INTERNET 192.168.20.*RESERVE 1 MKSIntegrityServer INTERNET 192.168.20.*RESERVE 1 MKSIntegrityServer-DBBackend INTERNET 192.168.20.*RESERVE 1 MKSSourceIntegrity-Float INTERNET 192.168.20.*   But it's not working. Does the MKS daemon support FlexLM option files in general? Thanks in advance and kind Regards, Ulf.  

I want to know the exact usage of Item type "Task" & "Change Order" ? Most of the fields are similar in task and change order types.   Thanks in advance.

When modeling behaviors in activity diagrams, it often happens that the lowest level elements, opaque actions, are later identified to be a bit more complicated than expected, and therefore better described as the usage of another activity, i.e. as Call Behavior Actions (CBA). Remodeling by deleting the opaque action and creating a CBA is cumbersome, therefore I've created a script-based solution for it.   Please read the attached Word document, which describes both installation and use, for further information. The ZIP contains two the component sharing files for the import into a model, one just the script and one with the script and an example.
