Hi, We want to read/subscribe to the notifications generated by Alarms in AMU application. We want to use the notifications to read alarm data and display it in custom mashup.  

I have asked this question before. However, I want to know what other customers are doing to figure out apps usage. We have Thingworx Platform where several apps are deployed. We want to know the usage of each app. We can add loggers in each apps to extract data. For example, one of the app collects documents content from Windchill for a given list of documents.  Looking for more ideas on how other have retrieve this kind of information?  thanks,Preeti

Hey there, i have an infotable where i set the datetime and at a specific point this datetime need to be set to "null" or just unset programmatically. I tried to set to null, to Zero (still a datetime and not unset).And then i found this: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS253788 I dont like to delete and insert again, i prefer to update. And it seems like there is no other solution than that. For alot of my problems i see always only a workaround and no real solution and after a workaround is applied then noone cares anymore about this problem and this workaround will exist like for ever. how is it possible that this workaround exists almost 2 years and no real solution got applied?

Hi I want to connect OSI PI server with PTC Thingworx for fetching the data. I found below link for OSI PI-Thingworx Connector.https://marketplace.ptc.com/en-US/apps/229637/osi-pi-historian-integration-for-thingworx Is there any other way to connect OSI Pi system to cloud based PTC Thingworx?

Hi Folks, I'm a total newbie to Kepware, so please forgive any mistakes or formatting inadequacies. I have searched the website, but answers to similar questions involve ThingWorx, which I'm not using. I'm using a trial version of KepServerEX 6.13 with the Postman utility to test responses to/from a REST API server configured in the IoT Gateway plugin. What I'm asking concerns the JSON call/response values. The IoT Gateway has a REST API agent pointing to a new read/write tag with the name "Channel1.Device1.Order", which is of type string. I followed the example from ptc.com:  https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS376106 .  Here is my POST request: POST            http://127.0.0.1:39320/iotgateway/write[    {        "id": "Channel1.Device1.Order",        "v": "000000717087"    }]&n

Hi Team,I need to create alert for my Thingworx application which will be generated if the native communication between Kepware and Thingworx is down, In my  case Kepware is up and showing Good values but due to some reason Thingworx side Kepware connection ( Industrial Connection) is showing "isConnected" property value as false and last connection was 3 days before. So need to develop some alerts which can automatically notify client whenever such incident occurs in future. Thanks and Regards,Sid

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to use your own security certificates with KepServerEx for OPC UA communication. I've seen that there is an option to import certificates in the Instance Certificates section of the OPC UA Configuration Manager. Is there any information on the requirements for using your own certificates? I also saw that there was a Certificate Store tab in the settings for KepServerEx. Is this for use specifically for ThingWorx?     

Hi Everyone,Please provide some project resources which I can do in Thing Worx composer.I am a beginner in Thing Worx. I do have Thing Worx composer tool. Thanks,Lavkush.  

Hello community, I wanted to try out creating a custom widget so I installed the latest Eclipse version 2023-03.I also downloaded the latest Eclipse plugin (9.0.1) and Thingworx extension SDK (9.3.0) and installed the plugin and used the SDK when creating the project. Now for the JRE I am not so sure.It says in the guide to use JRE 1.8. But I am not sure if I am actually using it.If I use the "Use default JRE 'jre' and worspace" option:And I have configured it like this:Is it using JRE 1.8? If I then create the project using these settings and try to add a new widget to the project:I get this error:Error log:(Here you can also see a bunch of other errors which I don't know if they are related or not). Now, I still do get some widget files in my project:So maybe it's OK? Creating other entities, like templates and script function libraries seems to work fine. At least they do not throw any errors. Any ideas?I will test the widget guide to completion next we

Hello, We have faced a little bit strange issue in one of our grids on 9.3.5.When we select a row in the grid, the data that we select is not actually what we have selected: Lets say we select a row with item "A" and then we pass this row into a service.Checking the dev tools for the payload shows us that the row we selected actually contained item "B". We have faced a similar issue before, but I think at that time there were some ghost entities causing some issues.However this time we can not see that we are in the same situation. Has anyone faced this issue before? Thanks,Jens

Hi, I'm working with a customer where I have configured KepServerEX as an OPCUA tunnel taking data from an OPCDA Server and providing it to an OPCUA Client. The OPCUA Client is a product called Tridium Niagara. We didn't apply a security policy initially however the latest version of Niagara requires that Basic256Sha256 is required. I have selected to use sign; sign and encrypt and configured the OPCUA side on KepServerEx. However, when I trust the Niagara OPCUA Client Certificate and try to connect Niagara to KepServerEx it fails with Niagara logging the following message, The URI specified in the ApplicationDescription does not match the URI in the certificate. The Certificate that I am using is the self signed certificate created by KepServerEx using OpenSSL. Also, to note the KepServerEx is installed on one virtual server and Niagara is installed on another. Whenever we create a new KepServerEx certificate it uses the credentials of the user logged in as part of the

Hello Bhawna,  I have just started learning Thing Worx application I am a beginner don't have any Idea from where to start learning Thing Worx.  But Currently I am learning different tools in Thing Worx like Thing, Thing Template Mashup etc... from the documentation section of Thing Worx which is ThingWorx Model Definition in Composer (ptc.com))  I do have a Thing Worx Composer ide, from where I do hands on, but it doesn't have analytics extension tab in it or maybe they haven't given permission for me now the questions which I want to ask, 1. Do I have to ask them to give permission for analytics extension tab into my Composer? 2. Can you please suggest some project which I can do in Thing Worx Composer? 3.Can you please suggest some video from where I can learn in a structured way?    Thanks,    Lavkush.

Hi all.There are a limit of number of properties that we can see in the window of Composer, max. 250 bound properties.Is this configurable or is the maximum that we can see in the Thingworx Composer??   

Hello everyone, I noticed some "strange" behavior while trying to add entries into a data table.I have a large JSON that I am converting into an infotable to do the entry. However it seems like the key value that is in my datashape contains some duplicates.The JSON looks something like this:{array:[{key: 'A'}, {key: 'A '}]} Now, as you might be able to see, the second object in the array has a key value with a trailing blank space. To me, these two are not equal, however it seems like when using the AddDataTableEntries service, it sees this as a duplicate. And also when trying to add rows manually using the data tables "mashup", I can also not add both 'A ' and 'A'. I'm not sure if this is caused by something on the platform side seeing this as equal, or if it is something on the DB side, so I wanted to ask here to see if someone has had similar issues. It seems like it doesn't just skip the duplicate either, instead it just stops the addition of

Hello, I have a situation where I have an application "header" in a mashup, like so:As you can see, the header is not really centered.This is due to this hidden dropdown: At the moment I have set the container that the dropdown (and button) are in as fixed width. This is because if I set it to responsive, the application header moves around as its container is growing and shrinking. So basically what I want to accomplish is to have the header in the center of the screen in general regardless of what happens to the other widgets. I realize this might cause some issues for people with smaller resolutions, but I hope it would be OK. Hope to get some feedback on this. Thanks,Jens
