Hi Thingworx Community, Has this been achieved by someone via Thingworx?  A few different approaches have already been tested, for example:1. Using directly the PostImage snippet to generate a POST request to the SharePoint API2. Uploading a file via Repository, converting to Binary (via snippet service) and using POST service snippet Those approaches didn't yield results as the SharePoint API doesn't return anything meaningful in the RestAPI responses. I wanted to know if someone has achieved that use case and what might be failing in my approach.   Regards

Hello,we are experimenting with the retrieval of pvz resources from windchill for AR purposes using thingworx Flow. In particular, the "get viewable" routine is capable of getting pvz files except for positioning assemblies. In this case, the pvz file has a 0 KB size. How to build a proper pvz also for this type of structure?

Hi All,We are trying to add functionality to the advanced grid widget where double clicking a cell would copy to clipboard whatever is contained in the cell.What would be the security risk of adding javascript to the page if that code is not being run on the server side, and only on the client side.How would this be any different from someone running code through the inspect tool of their browser?Other useful scenarios would be to do client-side processing for manipulating the DOM without constant calls back to the server to run services.Thanks in Advance.Thanks,Sakshi Sikarwar

We was using 10 datetime remote properties in Thing from Thingtemplate in all services. Hereafter those properties wont receive data from device. So we planned to pass new Date() time in all services. Is there any option to set current time in all those properties directly instead of editing all services. ??

So, I've had a problem with data table keys for a while now. When I set a number field as the primary key for a Data Shape and it gets used by a data table, the "key" field gets type-casted in a weird way. Whereas the data shape's field, say "Item", is filled with the number "10", the key field is stored as a string and the "Item" field gets type-casted that way and the resulting string ends up being "10.0". This results in problems when you try to search by the number "10", it will say that there is no such key. I've been programming around this problem, but I'm starting to get worried about future upgrades to ThingWorx causing problems for me. Is this going to be a problem for me in the future? Has it been fixed since ThingWorx 8.5? Is there a way to stop ThingWorx from adding the extra ".0"? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
