Is there anyway to recover unsaved data in Integrity?Ie. A user is creating an item that he has yet to save and suddenly faces a computer and/or network crash that leads Integrity to close. In such a situation, users are able to "recover" their unsaved work in the regular Office programs (Word, Excel etc.)I'm quite certain this doesn't exist in the Integrity context but our users are concerned and would like to know the best solution.Are there any temporary files created locally or on the server that save input data that can be recovered?Is there ANY solution to this or should they just focus on saving constantly at short intervals to avoid data loss?Data loss is a large concern and any possible solution/workaround would be great.

During an import of a RIF-file the Atego Requirements Synchronizer generates a report containing all changes (diff.htm).I would like to have that report but without really doing the import.This would allow us to have the proposed delta, without the import, to be discussed in the change control board.Thanks for any suggestions how to achieve that.Thomas MIGLINCI

Hi all,I'm a bit stuck, so maybe somebody can help me.I would like to create a heatmap Chart. By heatmap i mean a table chart where the different cells have different colors based on the values they contain(low values - BLUE - high values RED and all shades in between).As I am lazy i want create a script that sets the range definitions.According to the CLI documentation, this should be easy--rangeDefinitions=valuespecifies range definitions for computed expressions included in a table chart, where value consists of the following attributes: expressionname;range field name;range label:lower limit:upper limit:icon:background color:text color:text style:display format; lower limit:upper limit:.....;extend to axis .so I started with the command.im editchart --rangeDefinitions="Count;myLabel:0.0:10.0::200,255,255:200,255,255:Plain:Value;false" "Heatmap"Unfortunately this command completes without any error, but shows no result, meaning no new range in the defined Chart.Any ideas?

I'm working on scripts for our team that will help automate creating sandbox with MANY files. In some cases, I'm required to not include files from specific directories. So I'd like to know if I'm creating a sandbox, how do I remove a file from the Sandbox, so that it doesn't show up on the local directory, and also if possible also not seen in the client. I'm also looking for a solution that doesn't involve limiting the whole configuration of a sandbox, but instead only in a specific sub sandbox.

Hello all,I've been using Integrity for years now and recently got a little confused.One thing seemed to be craved in stone, when it comes to creating a sandbox:"You cannot and must not create a sandbox inside (below) and existing sandbox".The Sandbox creation dialog, prevents this "possibly dangerous" usage, by checking the target directory and it's parent directory for an already existing *.pj file.This strategy did not change officially:I checked the release notes back to 2009 and up to I10.6.I checked all user and admin manuals up to 10.6 I could find. Nevertheless in our current 10.6 installation, we can create a sandbox wherever we want. The only warning that is shown by Integrity occurs when creating two sandboxes in the same directory that have the same name for the .pj file (e.g. "project.pj").Are we facing a bug, or is this "works as designed" ? If so WHEN did the traditional design change and WHY?Any Ideas ( different or same experiences ) are welcome.Thank you in advance Ma

This is rather a mundane question but, while making Rich Content edits in Integrity, I've never managed to get the copy and paste keyboard shortcuts (Action Accelerators) to work. i.e. Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V and Ctrl + X, nothing happens. Strangely, Undo and Redo keyboard shortcuts work fine. The accompanying context mouse menu with these actions also works fine.I've noticed this problem using the same version of Integrity in a completely different company so I'm thinking a local PC problem is now unlikely.If anybody has any idea to resolve this, I would be grateful as it would make daily work a little easier.Thank you.Windows 7 64 bit.PTC Integrity 10.5.0.5479

HiWe are using Integrity Client 10.8.0.8356I can successfully execute the "im.exe --gui runchart chartname" CLI commandI can also successfully execute the web interface URL for runchart, i.e. http://server:port/im/runchart?selection=chartnameHowever when I try to execute integrity://server:port/im/runchart?selection=chartname,I get an error message box saying MKS154477: Command "runchart" is not supported for use in Integrity URL links. wonder if I am  using the right syntax or not. Can anyone provide more details ? Thanks.

Working on building an integration that relies on the Gateway. I have the Integration Builder's Guide but as far as the actual API documentation, the only places I can seem to find that is via the internet, hosted on third party sites. The Integration Builder's Guide doesn't make it apparent where to locate the documentation. Am I missing something obvious?Also in the release version information, for version 4.10 it says "API support for PTC Gateway". The Integration Builder's Guide doesn't mention the Gateway elsewhere, so I'm unsure of the commands to use to have code for my integration interact with the Gateway for import/export.

Has anyone attempted webservices via powershell?We're familiar with PTC Integrity webservices via soapui and java.Powershell is proving a challenge.Here's a code sample:$mksws = New-WebServiceProxy -Uri "MYSERVER/webservices/10/2/Integrity/?wsdl" $ns = $mksws.GetType().NameSpace$pr = New-Object ($ns + ".ProjectRequest")$pr.transactionId = "?"$pr.FieldList = "Name"$pr.Username = "xxxxx"$pr.Password = "xxxxx"$pr.ImpersonatedUser = $null$pr.DateFormat = $null$pr.DateTimeFormat = $null$gp = New-Object($ns + ".getProjects")$gp.arg0 = $pr#$response = New-Object($ns + ".getProjectsResponse")$response = $mksws.getProjects($gp) Returns this wrapped in html PTC Integrity Server - Error report   The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

Hello,this is what happens:In the Integrity Client's preferences under Configuration Management under Connection->Prompt for the checkboxes for User Name & Password  are checked.Yet when we use the CLI (si.exe) ,for let's say check-in, on a few machines the prompt does not happen.Is there maybe a different preferences-set for CLI then for the client somehow, or what could be the issue here?thanks in advance,Luca.

Hello,We use Integrity Client version 10.6.In the ClientGettingStartedGuide_Integrity_10_6.pdf document is written thatin order to open the Integrity Client GUI in Source Member History view we would have the following command:integrity://localhost:9001/si/viewhistory?selection=source.java&project=%2FTestProject%2Fproject.pjThe supported options for the Source Member History view are:si viewhistory-project-devpath-projectrevision The question is: is there any way to add  some kind of --rfilter=range:low-high to the integrity://.../viewhistory client URL ?range:low-highselects revisions that are in the specified revision number range.  For example:--rfilter=range:1.100-1.200

I've noticed that if I try to access the web interface via localhost:<port> it doesn't work, giving the following error: Error connecting to <hostname>:<port>: String index out of range: -1This is despite providing the correct credentials, as evidenced by successful login via the desktop client, as well as when accessing the web interface using 127.0.0.1:<port>.I have modified the IntegrityClientSite.rc on the server as well as client, which are configured for ICAllowSpecificConnectionPolicy, with 127.0.0.1 in the validConnectionList. Additionally, in the server's IntegrityClientSite.rc, ICLocalConnectionPolicy is set. This isn't a huge deal, but is somewhat of an annoyance that I'd like to resolve if possible. It doesn't seem to change anything when i comment the validConnectionList. Also, the hosts file does include a mapping for 127.0.0.1 to localhost. Any ideas?

After getting the Integrity Server and Client communicating after some licensing issues, I've noticed that no Types are available, either through the regular client/web interface or in the administration client. I can confirm this because in the Types table in the database, there are no Types either. It seems like based on the Server Administration guide that Integrity should come with some Types. I was attempting to create a Document but it wants me to specify a Type. Was I wrong about built-in Types?

Hello, I'm completely new with Integrity, although I've done quite a bit of reading through the client and server administration guides. I'm including details of the install that may not be relevant just in case they are.The main issue here is that FlexNet appears to not install correctly/successfully. The GUI launches to perform the install and I specify the path. All that ends up being created there is essentially an uninstall folder and some log files. There's no sign of lmadmin.exe and when I check the box near the end of the FlexNet install to run the service now, the browser opens with the port I specified, but it is the typical "unreachable" page.In attempting to setup Integrity Server to interact with an Integrity Client on the same machine, different drives, I've hit a snag installing FlexNet. I follow the directions specified in the ReadMe. First off, running the setup.bat results in an "Installer UI Mode Error":"The installer cannot run in this UI mode. To specify the interf

Hello PTCers,Very soon I'm going to inherit the administration duties of a new Integrity database linked to our Windchill that is getting set up by a consulting company for us. One particular question I have is on Traces between document/object types. I've been reading up on Traces in the documentation that we have been provided, and I know that to get to them within the Integrity Admin GUI you go to Workflows and Documents/Types/MKS Solution, select Edit Type and go to Properties, and the Trace lines in there are the ones with the name MKS.RQ.trace.<a document type>. However, the documentation that I have and can currently find is a bit light on some specific details that hopefully could be answered here.1) There are document types listed in the Name and often several in the Value for these lines. For the document type listed in the Name part of the line what is the significance of that entry? I.e., does this mean while I am in an instance of that document type I can make the co

Hello,  Revision number  = a unique number used to identify a revision in an archive.   Revisions on the trunk are numbered as two-part decimals  (that is, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, …).   Can someone explain the reasons behind the idea why the first revision number  is 1.1 and not 1.0 ?See also the screen capture for an example of project history and member historyThank you!

Hi,About Integrity Client 10.6 Source Configuration Management Web InterfaceThere is  PDF document named ClientUserGuide_Integrity_10_6.pdf where I can find a bit of information aboutsi/viewproject and si/viewrevisionIn the Web interface, if you know the location of a project, you can open it by typing the following URL in a browser:http://<server>:<port>/si/viewproject?projectName=<(sub)projectname>for examplehttp://xyzBusiness:7001/si/viewproject?projectName=c:/master_projects/SourceCode/project.pj.In the Web interface, you can also open a variant project from a Project view by selecting Project > Open Variant Project.TIP If you know the location of a revision, you can view it by typing the following URL in a browser:http://<server>:<port>/si/viewrevision?projectName=<(sub)projectname>&revision=<revisionnumber>&selection=<membername>for examplehttp://xyzBusiness:7001/si/viewproject?projectName=c:/master_projects/SourceC
