Hello, I would like to use mqtt in vuforia studio to fetch metadatas from a database hosted on an edge device. I tired different approaches (proxy redirect to "bypass" CORS restrictions, https with a self signed certificate) but at the end of the road I stumble in the same problem: the AR app works on local environment (preview mode) but not on the mobile device (an ipad in this case).I already made a post about this topic and I've been told that the solution may reside in thingworx and the mqtt extension (which still requires a broker if I'm correct).I would like to know the detailed steps to achieve mqtt communication in vuforia studio and vuforia view.Thanks in advance

Today, I created a transfer file from the old PC running Kepware server and uploaded it to the my.Kepware account. The transfer message indicated that the license has now been "Banked". When I go to the "View Activation History" I see 1/0, but I see no other details. The screen is blank otherwise. There is no Kepware license code appearing for the newly banked license that was transferred today. I want to transfer this license to a new PC, as the old hardware has died. How can this be fixed?

We are using Thingworx EMS to connect to local VMs in order to support them. Each VM runs several containerized web applications. Typically these are accessed by support personnel at https://127.0.0.1:differentport# We have applications listening at 8443, 3001, 3003 etc. Support users SSH in over port 22 and have access to port 443. Even with NFT port forwarding from 443 to 8443 we cannot get any of these applications to come up. All come up if you connect to the machine directly on a local network instead of through Thingworx. Any ideas on the correct configuration? We could potentially use DNS, but prefer not to require a DNS entry if we can just use 127.0.0.1 or localhost.

Hello. I created an organization in thingworx, activated the Allow password reset button, and set up a mail server.Also, I confirmed that the mail is sent normally through MailServerThing's SendMessage service. However, when I made a request to reset the password on the organization login page, the message "Check your email to reset your password" appears, but it doesn't seem to be actually sent. Is there anything I missed? Please let me know if you know the cause.

The new grid has a sorting icon that takes up a lot of space when space is limited. I am trying to style this to remove this 8px margin. Any idea on how to remove this? Alternatively, is there a way to remove the icon completely out of the box and just have the column clickable similar to the old widget?

I've been using a ValueDisplay widget to display .JPG images from a Thingworx Repository.It works well with the Value Format [Renderer and State] set to "Display image to cover cell height"in versions 9.4.3 and 9.4.7.After upgrading to version 9.5.3 the images display as a microscopic postage stamp.The only way for the .JPG images to display in a size big enough to see is to change the Renderer and State to "Display image using original size". Original size does not resize with the browser.

Hello Everyone,I'm currently working on a Schedule Chart widget and want to align the legend items in a single horizontal row (the legend is currently displayed as a grid layout).When I inspected the widget at runtime and manually changed the display property of [part="grid"] from grid to flex, it worked as expected. However, when I tried applying this through custom CSS, none of my attempts had any effect on the widget.Here are the different methods I tried:1.ptcs-chart-legend::part(grid) {justify-content: center !important;align-items: center !important;display: flex !important;horizontal: true !important;}2.ptcs-chart-schedule::part(legend)::part(grid) {display: flex !important;}3.@supports (ptcs-style-unit: "ptcs-chart-schedule") {[part =grid]{display: flex !important;}}4.@supports (ptcs-style-unit: "ptcs-chart-legend") {[part=grid] {display: flex !important;}}When I applied the following CSS, the legend moved to the center, but it still displayed in a grid layout instead of a hori

Hi Experts, I have connected few PLC (Siemens S7-300) in our plant and now on progress connecting PLC (Siemens S7-400) to Kepware.  There is no issue on S7-300 communication and value reveive. Happy it works all well.For S7-400, communication are ok however value received from PLC are different. all datatype (word,float,bool etc) are different value than PLC. i tried changing byte type (little and big endian), but value still different.To test further, i do tried with SCADA which on same network, no issues on value received.Need your advice.

We are currently using Pingfederate as CAS and Microsoft Azure Entra ID as IDP . We want to switch and only use Azure Entra ID as both CAS and IDP. We are able to authenticate users using Entra ID in thingworx but now we want to integrate windchill using integrator connectors. SO we have to setup windchill as a resource server on Entra iD or can we do it just by keeping thingworx as resoruce server. Do we have any use case that we can refer to. I am refering this document  - https://support.ptc.com/help/identity_and_access_management/en/index.html#page/iam/AzureADasCASandIdP.html#

Hi everyone,I was following the official guide for installing the Eclipse Plugin for ThingWorx Extension Development, and it refers to this link:🔗https://support.ptc.com/appserver/common/login/ssl/login.jsp?dest=%2Fappserver%2Fcs%2Fportal%2F&msg=1 However, when I visit the page, I don’t see any option to download the Eclipse plugin ZIP file. The instructions mention downloading it from that page, but there’s no visible download button or link.Has the location changed or is there another way to get the plugin?Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello, i'm trying to connect Thingworx to MSSQL using ODBC instead of JDBC and i found some CS and community posts about ADO Service, but i'm not sure if this is a good choice for using on Thingworx 9.3 as the ADO is like ten years old and i don't even know if it's still supported by newer Thingworx versions.So, i came here asking for help with some solution, because i don't want to connect ODBC on Kepware Server for getting data because i don't want to overload my database with periodic queries from Kepware Server.Thingworx version: 9.3-b20

Introduction  As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to grow, securing web applications and connected devices is more critical than ever. Content Security Policy (CSP) is a security feature that helps protect IoT applications from malicious threats by controlling which resources—such as scripts, styles, and images—can be loaded and executed in a browser. This article explores what CSP is, the types of attacks it prevents, its role in securing IoT applications, the most common CSP directives used for enhanced security, and a real-world case study demonstrating CSP in action.  What is Content Security Policy (CSP)?  Content Security Policy (CSP) is a web security standard designed to reduce the risk of security vulnerabilities such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), data injection, and clickjacking by enforcing strict content-loading policies within web applications. It allows developers to specify which domains are permitted to execute scripts, load images,
