IoT & Connectivity

I am using Thingworx 9.0 and when I am creating a subscription on a thing, I can see there is a built-in event called "HistorianDataLogged". Can anyone please tell me how to use this event or how and when this event will be triggered? 

A user has been added to Administrators group and into an another group with different set of permissions.   Will this user be behaving as Administrator or as per created group?    

Once started logging in organization, the total Thingworx server failed loading its features and showing "internal server error". why? How to overcome this issue?

I have a datatable having fielddefinitions of datatype infotable(5 rows & 5 columns). I want to update those infotables fielddefinitions using script. I am trying to pass values in a query of UpdateDataTableEntriesWithQuery. But its not working!!

Hello!   There is a problem with the filter widget. After binding it to the service I click "Configure Data Filter Fields", uncheck the boxes and change the fields names. But nothing changes in the mashup. The number and names of the fields remain the same as they were received from the service.

I want to know whether thingworx can be installed on Microsoft Hyper-V

Need to check whether logged in user is in Administrators group or not using Thingworx service.   As I checked there is no specific service related to this or list of users in Administrators group can also help.   Please let me know if I can get this Info using any inbuilt thingworx services.

 I have been searching for the twilio extension for the 9.1 version of thingworx in both market place and support website but I'm not able to find it. Please suggest where to find the extension.

I tried to install apps and add users, but I can not see the role. Could you give me a solution.  

Some extensions are imported in my thingworx composer. Any options available to export those extensions to import it in another server ?

Can ThingWorx 9.1 be setup to use InfluxDB without using the UI?  The documentation only shows the UI, and I can find no references on the web to specifying InfluxDB provider info in platform-settings.json.   My goal is to create an automated install process.   Thanks, Mike

In one organisation if i created 3 organisational units with individual usergroups, the parent organisation also automatically added with few usergroups of its organisational units.   As it is an automatic, i want either (i) the parent organisation should be added with all the usergroups/users of its organisational units (or) with no usergroups/users. Any settings is there to check this abnormal activity?

Hi, We need to build the report with the grid satisfying the requirement of showing the data with collapsible columns and rows.One overview info to see how many parts in each buffer zone, and each buffer zone has detail info. On clicking of a icon (eg: +) in column or row, we should be able to expand the row to see the in depth details that we bind.   Please refer the attached screenshot for better understanding.   Is this possible using Advanced grid? Is there any step we can do to include this requirement?   Thanks in Advance, Shalini V.

We are trying to configure mail(Mail Account User - 2 step authentication) on MailServer thing.After clicking on submit it sends OTP to mobile.But in thingworx, there is no popup or input field to enter OTP and make successful connection.   But for Basic Auth(Username/Password) it works fine.   Please help me with this!

Hi,    I've created a custom service that creates a dataset using the CreateDataSet service from the Analytics Server Data Thing. I want to add tags so that the dataset will appear in the Analytics Builder. I found this snippet of code that will create a tags info table, but I'm confused as to what the if statement will achieve:   var tags = Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].CreateInfoTableFromDataShape({dataShapeName: "GenericStringList" /* DATASHAPENAME */});if (displayInBuilder && datasetName){    tags.AddRow({ item: "builderdataset" });     tags.AddRow({ item: "builderdatasetname:" + datasetName.toLowerCase() });   When I try to run this code with my datatsetName, it says that "displayInBuilder" does not exist- is this something I need to define, or is this calling another function/service?  Thanks!

Hi,  The Java edge SDK raise 302 error code when connecting to ThingWorx server,   the IP address and appKey is correct .   The server has a customized Authenticator enabled , but sending post request via Postman to the server works.   Why the java sdk can not connect to the server ?       ThingWorx version: 9.1.0 edge SDK: 7.0 JDK :  11       Regards, Sean  

Hi community,   Given the following context: There are 600 assets and each of them have more than 100 properties and each property need to have at least one Anomaly Detection alert configured.   1) How should the ThingWorx Analytics server (where the Anomaly Detection functionality will be running) be sized? 2) Is any guideline/rule/formula to size the ThingWorx Analytics server appropriately once the context changes?   PD: Also any rules or guidelines on how to size the ThingWorx Analytics server taking into account not only the Anomaly Detection feature but all ThingWorx Analytics server features will be much appreciated.

I'm trying to replace all of the instances of quotation marks <"> in a string with a different string; namely, <\\">. I tried using the replaceAll method, but ThingWorx doesn't recognize it. Any suggestions?

Based on these two previous questions related to the definition of a cycle and this one, regarding the time dependency on module. How should the following case be approached?    Lets assume I have a process for which the cycles last 10 hours  each, according to the documentation at least five cycles should the used to train the model, on the other hand, according to this post all cycles should be in a time windows of 24 hours, in this case where the five cycles add up to 50 hours, how should the training be approached?

HI, I am trying to insert a new line in string. I tried with this(below pic) but not working. Any help?  

5 Common Mistakes to Developing Scalable IoT Applications by Tori Firewind and the IoT EDC Team Introduction To build scalable applications, it’s necessary to identify common mistakes and avoid them at the early stages of development. In an expert session this past month, the PTC Enterprise Deployment Team elaborated on why scalability is important and how to avoid the common development pitfalls in IoT. That video presentation has been adapted here for visual consumption of the content as well.   What is Scalability and Why Does it Matter Enterprise ready applications can scale and easily be maintained, which is important even from day 1 because scalability concerns are the largest cause for delays to Go Lives.  Applications balance many competing requirements, and performance testing is crucial to ensure an application is ready for Go Live. However, don't just test how many remote assets can connect at once, but also any metrics that are expected to increase in time, lik
