Dear developers,    I wanted to substitute a TextBox with a Dropdown widget, as the String can be only between two values. However, I am struggling in finding a way to provide the current selection as an input parameter to the Service, as for example the SelectedText field can be only have a Source but not a Target binding. I have found some solutions around but I quite do not understand them.   Thanks and BR

Hi Community members. I have a situation where I need to update property values(including min/max threshold) using API from a mashup. Is there any way to update min/max threshold value of a thing property.

Hi,   I'm using QueryNamedPropertyHistory to fetch data from Value Stream and bind it to Mashup. But using same timestamp(start and end date) differently,causing partial data fetch. Here is the scenario. I have a data record at 2020-10-20 09:00:00.000 1.  Execute service with start date (2020-10-20 08:00:00.000) and end date (2020-10-20 10:00:00.000), timerange is 2 hours. result = empty record for that Property   2. Execute service with start date (2020-10-20 12:00:00.000) and end date (2020-10-20 10:00:00.000),timerange is 10 hours. result = expected record   so same record is being fetched when time range is more but no records found when time range is closer to the actual record timestamp.   Additional Info: when using QueryNumberPropertyHistory with same date 24 hours timerange for that Property, able to see only 8 records in actual.   when using QueryPropertyHistory with same date 24 hours timerange , can see multiple records with rep

Hi Team, I am using Postman(GET/POST) to execute services of LicensingSubsystem, but unable to execute.   I am using below url:-   http://<url>:8080/Thingworx/Subsystems/LicensingSubsystem/Services/GetDaysRemainingInLicense   I am getting result in JSON till LicensingSubsystem(only with GET request but not with POST).   Even I tried with one of the Datatable thing also but result is also the same for Datatables. Have also attached the screenshot of one test thing displaying that No "Services" link option is present. In case of "LicensingSubsystem" I am getting only option of "ServiceDefinitions".   Can somebody help me on this. What would be the actual url to execute the services of Subsystems ?   Thanks in advance.  

Hi Team,   Could somebody help me on this, as I want to invoke subsystem services of one ThingWorx in another ThingWorx.   Thanks in advance.

Hello    I am struggling   to find how to map a XML parameter  of a service to a C# type.   Currently I have that:   public static void PutWorkOrder([ThingworxServiceParameter(name = "WorkOrder", description = "XML document", baseType = "XML")]XmlDocument WorksOrder)   But I am not sure that  XmlDocument is the right type for mapping . ( Always null when debugging) Thanks a lot

Hi all,   In an effort to focus our resources on the features that deliver the most value to customers, we are planning a slight change to the browser support policy for ThingWorx.   This change will come into effect with the first minor release following ThingWorx 9.1, so likely at some point during calendar year 2021.   As part of this change, we will stop supporting Mozilla Firefox's Rapid Release (RR) version, but continue supporting the Extended Support Release (ESR). The Mozilla website has more details on the differences. At a high level, the ESR version receives the same security updates that the RR version does, but is more stable in terms of feature introduction. It also allows for additional organization-wide controls that are not available in the RR. Because we serve enterprise customers that generally have standardized internal IT policies and procedures, the ESR is usually the better fit.   This will be reflected in our release notes, but jus

With text wrapping in Value Display widget the textbox appears distorted. This is due to style of box-shadow as   [part~=disclosure-button-overlay] { box-shadow: 0px -8px 16px; } on id disclosurebuttonoverlay.   This is part of below style : <style ctx="PTCS-VALUE-DISPLAY">:host {border-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);border-width: 1px;border-style: none;--valuedisplay-modal-shadowcolor: #232b2d;--value-display-modal-popup-padding: 24px;--value-display-modal-popup-value-padding-top: 8px;--value-display-button-hit-area-side: 34px;--value-display-popup-close-button-container: 16px;--value-display-popup-close-button-container-padding: 16px;--value-display-modal-popup-padding-top: 42px;--value-display-live-art-area-image-popup-padding: 42px;--value-display-live-art-area-image-popup-margin-top: 66px;--value-display-key-min-height: 26px;--value-display-value-min-height: 26px;--value-display-key-label-header-font-size: 26px;--value-display-key-label-sub-hea

Hi, What is the difference between Mashup templates and master templates in ThingWorx 9.0?  And without the layout widget in ThingWorx 9.0, it is very difficult to do the spacing between each container. Is there a method to key in the spacing of the container as per our wish?   Thanks & Regards, Shalini V.

Hi    I am using TWX Platform 8.0+ in Google Chrome Browser. I have 3 mashups under my current project for which I am getting the following pop-up - "Could not load "mashup_name" - internal exception 1". This is not the case in IE though.  I kindly request to please advise on the work around

Dear devs,   While it is clear to me how to give permissions for the Mashups colletion:     cs.AddCollectionVisibilityPermission("Mashups", org.getName(), "Organization");     I don't quite understand how can I give permissions to the single Mashup, as a corresponding class doesn't seem to exist in the SDK.   Thanks and best regards, Federico 

Here is my requirement:   I have a "Thing Template" which establishes connection to an external database (JDBC - MSSQL). Now, I want to import all the entities from Development Environment to Testing & Production Environments. I want to update/set the "Configuration Table - ConnectionInfo" with new JDBC settings of new Environments.    In the above scenario, once I change the settings on "Thing Template" can all the "Things" imported inherit the new settings? These "Things" have many services developed by different developers. I just want the JDBC settings to be updated from its Thing Template.   Instead of changing and tracking "Things", am trying to change it, at one place (Thing Template). Any ideas or suggestions?

The download for simulated data appears to be a html file rather than an xml file with valid data. When trying to import  https://developer.thingworx.com/-/media/developerportal/Foundation%20Quickstart/Things_House_data_simulator.xml When trying to import the file it returns Import failed with the following application log error "Invalid request: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 2; columnNumber: 10; DOCTYPE is disallowed when the feature "http://apache.org/xml/features/disallow-doctype-decl" set to true."

During the device on boarding the device generates a asymmetric key pair and send the public key to ThingWorx. The key is stored in a property. The message form the client will be signed with the private key and added to the JSON string. the incoming JSON string just needs to be “truncated” by the hash value and now I need a method where I can check with the public key and the JSON string if this matches to the hash. How?   the signing will give the ThingWorx server the confidence that the message was send by this specific device that previously shared the public key.    

Hi      Is ThingWorx 9.0 supports InfluxDB.     Thanks in Advance

Hi All,   I'm trying to fire an event when a session variable is changed, but nothing seems to happen.  I set up the variable and bound the changed event to a service, but when I update the session variable via a service, nothing happens.  I did confirm that the variable is being updated.  I'm using 8.5.3 and I found this:   https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS290680?&language=en&posno=1&q=SetGlobalSession%20value%20services%20do%20not%20trigger%20session%20parameter%20changed%20events&source=search   Which is the same issue I appear to be having.  I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed the same issue -- as I'm probably doing something wrong.    I'm trying to implement:  https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS314806?&language=en&posno=2&q=thingworx%20service%20session%20event&source=search Option 1 Thanks!

Is there any way to configure 2 different log files for AUDIT and DEBUG level?   My Bests, Hung Tran
