Hello Developers,   I am new to thingworx 9.0 and trying to build an asset monitoring dashboard in Thingworx app on thingworx 9.0. I am trying to fetch list of assets as mentioned in one of the PTC provided exercises (Manufacturing App) by running service 'GetFilteredAssetList' in thing PTC.SCA.SCO.AssetMonitor.AssetList.AssetListServiceController. Since i am trying to get similar result in Thingworx 9.0 by running service 'GetFilteredAssetCollection' in PTC.SCA.SCO.AssetMonitor.AssetList.AssetListServiceController, it is not returning any data. Can anyone please help me in getting replacement of this thing.

I'm trying to setup DCOM consiguration as explained in section 4.1 Configuring the Application at https://www.kepware.com/getattachment/04042e47-c690-467c-a931-a1ca126575db/Remote-OPC-DA-Quick-Start-Guide-DCOM.pdf But, I don't see entry on "OPC Server". Because of that, I can't connect to Kepware OPC server from other machine.

For a recent project, I was needing to find all of the children in a Network Hierarchy of a particular template type... so I put together a little script that I thought I'd share. Maybe this will be useful to others as well.   In my situation, this script lived in the Location template. This was useful so that I could find all the Sensor Things under any particular node, no matter how deep they are.   For example, given a network like this: Location 1 Sensor 1 Location 1A Sensor 2 Sensor 3 Location 1AA Sensor 4 Location 1B Sensor 5 If you run this service in Location 1, you'll get an InfoTable with these Things: Sensor 1 Sensor 2 Sensor 3 Sensor 4 Sensor 5 From Location 1A: Sensor 2 Sensor 3 Sensor 4 From Location 1AA: Sensor 4 From Location 1B: Sensor 5   For this service, these are the inputs/outputs: Inputs: none Output: InfoTable of type NetworkConnection   // CreateInfoTableFromDataShape(infoTableName:STRING("InfoTable"), dataShapeName:S

Hi, We are using a multiselect dropdown widget in a mashup, but we can´t see all the text on the dropdown view. Dropdown widget has Width property, but is it possible to configure only the width of the dropdown view? Thanks in advance,  

Hi Team,     I am using windows 10  64 Bit Enterprise version. When I trying to install "ThingWorx-Foundation-Installer-h2-trial-Windows-9-0-0" it ended up with some error message.   My java version is : C:\Users\eaz>java -version             java version "1.8.0_162"            Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_162-b12)            Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.162-b12, mixed mode)    Here I attached the error message and error log file.  

Recently installed a demo version, am stepping through the IoT quickstart guide, trying to create a new thing template, but I'm missing the GenericThing base thing template.. Any ideas on how I'd be able to get it?   Thanks, RL

Trying to install ThingWorx foundation trial and stepping through the installation guide online, but it keeps failing with just a generic error message. I'm making sure to run the install as an administrator.   I've attached the error message coming up during the failed install, as well as my command prompt output for Java version and accessibility to keytool.   The system I'm trying to install it on is Windows 10 Pro (I've also tried running the installer on compatibility mode Win 8), 4 cores, and 16GB memory, with well over 100GB storage available.    Any assistance/ideas appreciated.

Hi,   I am connecting Mysql through odbc client. The records in my database table are of 5 rows but the default "Maximum Records to Import " is 3  and not allowing me to increase above this. So in kepserver only 3 out of 5 rows are shown. Path: Kepserver>Tag Generation Options>Maximum Records to Import  I am doing this in trial version of Kepserver in my system. But in other system this is not the case(also using trial version).   What is this issue?   Thanks, Sri1

I am using date time picker widget on a popup.When I clicked year dropdown,It is showing list on the top of main mashup screen. Please resolve the issue asap.

Would like to obtain WTDocuments with name "Test Data" from either Reference By or Describe By link from Parts.   I was able to use the endpoint getPartsInPartsByID and supply it with value "References" in expand and was able to generate at least the Link OID. But the link oid doesn't offer name of document linked to so would I have to create another service that takes in the link value, gets the doc referenced and get its name? or could this be done in select or via expand parameter?   Here is my current service code : // result: JSONvar partLinks = me.getPartsByID({$expand: "References" /* STRING */,ID: ID/* STRING */,$select: undefined /* STRING */});var references = partLinks.References;var result = "{ \"TestDataIDs\": ["; for ( var i=0; i < references.length ; i++) {result += "\"" + references[i].ID + "\"";if (i != (references.length - 1)) {result += ",";}}result +="]}";

Hi All, Have anybody tried BreadCrumb in Thingworx 9.0.0, How to use it on master mashup so that we can control the mashup traversing using it. An example will be great help. Regards, Pravin

Hi,   I have a query related to collection widget. I am having a collection widget where an each tile represents an action to be performed. In each tile I have a button on which we click the action gets executed and when the action starts to get executing the button goes to the disable state. But the issue what I am seeing is that whenever I am moving from one tile to another tile, all my tiles are reloading. Like lets say I have 4 actions and I click on execute action button on action 3 to execute and when I click on the button of action 3 the button goes to the disable state till the action is completed. While the button is in the disable state, i.e. the action is executing I just click on another tile and when I do this all of my tiles (all 4 tiles) refreshes or reloads due to which my button which is in the disable state just gets enabled and then again goes back to the disable state. This happens because whenever I move from one tile to another each tile refreshes or reloads

Hi everyone, I'm trying to call a rest api through lua script but receive a strange error. Module socket.core not found. I installed only EMS and Lua from PTC zip file. Is peraps needed to install lua source on machine? Can someone give me an example?

I'm doing some testing on an instance of 9.0.2 and I tried importing a JDBC extension that uses the 7.2 version of the MS SQL JDBC jar file, however, I got an error indicating a new version was available (that I did not import).   After further review, I found a newer version of the MS SQL JDBC jar file buried in the Thingworx web application file:   C:\..\Tomcat 9.0\webapps\Thingworx\WEB-INF\lib   File: mssql-jdbc-7.4.1.jre8.jar   Questions: With TWX 9.0, do we no longer have to have a specific extension installed to connect to MS SQL databases? When creating a new connection to MS SQL Server for a TWX application, do we just use the "Database" Thing Template, and configure accordingly? Method in #2 above is working, it's just different than what I'm used (started with 7.4). I think this is great, but want to be sure I'm using this as expected.

I need to select dates only from September month and need to disable rest of the previous dates in date picker widget. 

Hello,   I look for the good practice of dependencies management across multiple Java extensions. I work on a project where we have developed multiple Java extensions and where we use standard extensions. We always facing troubles with JAR dependencies across extensions and we finish to comment jar resource dependency within the metadata.xml in order to import extension. Moreover in some cases we need to know the order of import of extensions.   For example: - We have imported the extension DataExporter which contains the jar poi-4.0.0.jar - We need to import a custom extension which depends on poi-4.1.2.jar   And from here we can't import our custom extension. Checking ThingWorx system JARS conflict(s) detected [package: XXXXXX]. A workaround for this situation, as mentioned earlier, is to comment the poi-4.1.2.jar in the metadata.xml and rely on the existing  jar poi-4.0.0.jar already imported in the platform.   Do you guys have a cleaner workflow? Do y

Hi, How did you solve this issue?? Can you please tell the solution.

Thingworx 8.3.3 : Below picture shows implementation using repeater widget. Thingworx 8.5.2 : I want to implement the same using collection widget in 8.5.2 version but inner mashups are not stretching horizontally.I tried both Table/flow views.        

Hello, I have been beating my head against the wall with this for a while now.  Any help would be appreciated!   I have a VERY simple csv I'm using as a dataset:   That's it:  3 fields and "Temp", which is what I want to predict from the other 3.  So I upload this data into TWX Analytics (metadata correctly inferred), build the model, and publish it.  The problem is, every time I try to "test" the model, I can't.  No matter what values I put into the inputs, the job fails with "Data Shape Does Not Match - Number of Fields Are Different":     In addition, when I run the Signals for this model, no output is ever shown in the Features List when it is completed.  I have run this before with other (much more complicated) data sets and never had any issues.  The only error I see on the signals run is logged in the Script log:   GetSignalsAMS: Error: JavaException: java.lang.Exception: Field names do not match : Field [goal] Not Fo

Hi everybody,   I am working with data export widget to export data from my data table. It is working well.   I would like to schedule one time to launch this widget everyday rather than I do it manually.   I have been thinking to use the function "schedulers" to does it:     Does anyone know if this is possible?        

I would like to archive some Data Table records we have stored in ThingWorx (with a PostgreSQL Persistence Provider). I don't have much experience with setting up/optimizing PostgreSQL databases, so I am looking for some input. Note that we have both an application server and a separate database server which also has a PostgreSQL persistence provider set up. The records in this table are currently stored using that external persistence provider on the database server, not the application server.   Old records would not need to be regularly accessed and I want to offload them to clean things up a bit and reduce the amount of records in this particular Data Table. The way I see it there are 3 ways to do this: Add the records to a separate Data Table which also stores data using the external persistence provider Set up a separate database/table in PostgreSQL (not part of the ThingWorx data model), and create SQL queries using a JDBC connection to retrieve records as needed Add the r

Hello! The contractor performed work on connecting temperature sensors via the SiemensS71200 controller to the SCADA system via the Modbus TCP\IP Protocol. But they made the connection directly, bypassing our existing opc server. I'm currently trying to add this controller to our kepserverex 5.13, but it doesn't work. I always get _FailedReads in the _Statistics tab. In this case, the controller is pinged. Moreover, I get correct responses from the same ip address and modbus addresses in the opc server of another manufacturer. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Port: 502 Screenshots include
