IoT & Connectivity

Hello guys,   We are not very familiar with ThingWorx yet. we are trying to establish connection between SAP and ThingWorx, using the following post: https://community.ptc.com/t5/IoT-Tech-Tips/SAPODataConnector-hands-on-8-0/m-p/534382?sr=stream We created an account on SAP DEMO system (SAP Netweaver Gateway). We are trying to connect to SAP DEMO system using our credentials, but we got an the following error:   Unable to execute service GetEndpointList on Controller_Thing : Your route exchange has failed. Resource Error [java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Error constructing implementation (algorithm: Default, provider: SunJSSE, class: sun.security.ssl.SSLContextImpl$DefaultSSLContext)]   We are using ThingWorx 8.3.3-b937, and it is running on Cloud VM.   Thank you in advance.

Hi,   Is there a way to style the white space between the tab headers using any custom CSS or so? I tried using the below CSS:   .widget-ptcstabset::part(tabs-tab){      margin-left:0px !important;     margin-right:0px !important;}   But this completely removes the white space. I want that space between tab headers, but is there any way to style or colour it?    Thank you.

Hello everyone,   I have TAGs from a PLC and they are already in my foundation within a Thing.   I would like to associate a set of these variables to a time series graph.   I have four variables referring to the OEE of each production line in my factory.   So far I only know how to use the getproperties service but I know that to do this I need to use querypropertyhistory.   How do I bind these variables that I have inside a thing for an infotable to later link to the chart?   I already looked at the guide that talks about it, but I was not able to make it work.

Can we get an EMS server show up in the server list of Controls Advisor? I've already been successful in attaching assets to remote things but was wondering whether we can also show the EMS itself in the server list of Controls Advisor  

Hi,   I want to transfer the data of my things properties from the ThingWorx composer to ThingWorx Analytics. In tutorials about thingworx analytics they always use excel files but I could find very little information about the process of transforming the data into such a file.  I know that the data has to be in csv format and that I need metadata but how can I transform my data from the composer to this format?  Or can you recommend any tutorials?  

Hi  I have a requirement to perform the following operations on remote (child) TW servers from a (parent) TW server. Am planning to use ContentLoaderFunctions (PostJSON) from parent TW server to invoke a REST API call of remote TW server (Thingworx/Resources/EntityServices/ServiceDefinitions/CreateUser) with Appkey.  Create a user  Create a group Add user to a group Delete a user. Please suggest me if there is any other better approach.   if we are creating the user with the help snippet, then we can use Resources["EntityServices"].CreateUser(params);. we can execute the same in remote server?   Appreciate your early response

How should I input the location in the the service to get the desired mahsup   Regards Ketan

Hi, I can implement customized device data transformation using Java SDK/Protocal Adapter Toolkits/EMS  on the Edge side before sending data to Thingworx Server.    However,  Kepware connects to Thingworx directly and it seems I can  only implement the data transformation in Thingworx server (except using the advanced tag of Kepware) .  Is it possbile to implementation the transformation of Kepware data tag in Edge as well ? (It is best to use JAVA) .     Regards, Sean  

Hi, I got a very strange phenomenon.  I have a remote thing which is bound to the data tag of Kepware, when kepware detect the change of PLC,  the data change event of the property in Thingworx will trigger the subscription to update the same property, but it doesn't take effect , the property in Thingworx still remain unchanged ,  and there is no error found.  But if manually change the data tag in Kepware or using timer then it works.   In a summery :  PLC -> update Kepware data tag -> raise data change event in Thingworx -> trigger subscription -> execute sync service to update the property value  ==>  does NOT work . no effect   manually update Kepware data tag -> raise data change event in Thingworx -> trigger subscription -> execute sync service to update the property value  ==>  works   PLC -> update Kepware data tag -> launch a timer to poll the property value

I have sucessfully crosscompiled the Edge C SDK for my IoT Gateway (MIPS architecture with OpenWrt OS) and i am currently able to run SteamSensor example on my platform. I have configured (importing the SteamSensor example XML file) a SteamSensor Thing on the Cloud platform. When i run SteamSensor example binary on my gateway i can clearly seethe Thing connected on the cloud . But if i look my console output on my gateway i can see also some internal server errors that appear periodically.
