Ask Navigate Emily Anything

I think I have mentioned this couple of times that PTC is positioning Windchill+ new UI as task based UI.What is PTC guideline on Thingworx Navigate roadmap position as role based app in future. Customers like us, JnJ have already on the path of developing role based apps for more than 5 years. These apps are extremely helpful for users who are just searching and downloading content. Is PTC going to position Navigate as their role based app tool? I think it will be great to understand what the future entails.

This will be my first LiveWorx at PTC. What should we expect from Navigate? What should we expect in general?

Emily,   Thank you so much for stopping by the PTC Community today!  Happy Friday!  What am I taking you away from right now?  What is a typical Friday for you as Product Management Director of ThingWorx Navigate?

Our official "Ask Anything" real-time was over at 11 AM EST but as Emily is going about making ThingWorx Navigate awesome.... she is gracious to come back at the end of her workday and even Monday morning. So be sure to add any burning ThingWorx Navigate questions that come in over the weekend!  Don't be shy!  Ask Emily Anything!  Happy Women's History Month, Everyone!

Example would be Download Drawing Bundle app. You can specify Parts or CAD doc numbers from which it navigates links to find drawings. Its hit or miss and since it never seems 100% accurate, users cannot rely on it.  Can you publish the assumptions or data model it follows so that customers might see where their data links are broken? Or make it flexible to align to how customers manage their data. How about just providing list of drawings (or docs!) to retrieve directly?
