Hi All, I'm Fetching an XML File which is in Windchill, into the Thingworx. How can i Achieve this. Please Help out.

We have various properties that are updating very frequently. What will be the best way to implement this using the .Net SDK? Do we need to create separate threads to update properties? Current code looks like this, which is the default implementation, however for properties that are updating very frequently, what would be the best way?   targetThing.setProperty(propertyName, value); targetThing.updateSubscribedProperties(15000);  

I have a datatable with productname as primary key. i have two list widgets, one for product name and one for quantity. Now, for examples, if i select a product,say, a PCB and quantity as 2, then my datatable should make 2 entries having product name as PCB only. how do i do that? 

Hello everyone,   I have a Collection widget set as Table (view), so the repeated mashup fils the whole row. The repeated mashup is advanced/new responsive. I created it such a way that the height of the mashup extend according to the warped widget and containers (yes, containers warp by extended the height without scrolling, thanks to CSS addition). Because of this, when my row get thiner, the mashup warps well but the height of the row stays fixed and a scroll is displayed. I want my cell to be automatically extended with the height of the mashup (the thiner it is, the higher the cell should be). I tried to use the CellHeightField to have a flex height. I noticed that only number is accepted. For example, if I put in the field "200", it is consider as 200px. If I put "200px", the collection displayed nothing. I tried 100%, also doesn't work. I also tried "max-content" (it works in CSS like "height: max-content;") but not taken in account. So I tried to see the CSS of the collect

Hello I'm working to modify the HTML5 video widget I was able to add an input event "Play" (bindable to a mashup event) that does the play of the video.   I'm now trying to add a bindable output parameter that is the length of the video (this is available with the "duration" property of the HTML5 video object) I added this param correctly (VideoLength), I can see this on the mashup and I bound it to a label to see the value), I can set and see a "test" value with this.setProperty('VideoLength', 100); executed when a new video file is set   but I don't know how to retrieve the "duration" DOM property ... it should be somethign like this.setProperty('VideoLength', ???.duration???);   can someone help ?  

Hello,   It would be great to get some feedback on the following: Are there any plans for the major rework or deprecation of this framework? How to create Notification triggers from Javascript services? I tried the pair "CreateNotificationContent / CreateNotificationDefinition", but it doesn't seem to create a trigger. What's the difference between NotificationContent and Trigger? How to access and/or update NotificationDefinition objects from Javascript service? The entity collection "NotificationDefinitions" doesn't seem to be exposed in scripting context. We have 5000 things, each one with approximately 10 alerts (each firing once per week on average), and we'll need to configure notifications on them programmatically (users can choose which notifications from which devices they want to receive), potentially resuling in 50K NotificationDefinition objects, each one with a single trigger defined. Does it make sense performance-wise, or this framework is not designed to be used t

Hi everyone,   As part of a wide-ranging product review for the 9.0 release of ThingWorx, PTC has decided to remove a range of functionality due both to limited market adoption and a continuing effort to harden the security of the ThingWorx platform. Thus, for ThingWorx 9.0, PTC will be removing the following capabilities:   • The ability to use rich text in the Composer “Documentation” field (existing rich text will be displayed as raw HTML);• The ability to use rich text in blogs and wikis in Mashup Builder (existing rich text will be displayed as raw HTML);• The ability to edit HTML text in mashup builder. ThingWorx users will still be able to employ a service to import HTML content if desired.   Please prepare for these coming changes as appropriate. Thanks!

In fact, once I modified anything in the second file, I cannot connect. Does anyone know what's going on? how am I be able to import the extensions?   Thank you so much!

The name got changed to ignored_license_capablity_response.bin file. Do i have to generate new license file and place it in Thingworx folder or I don't have to make any changes.

Hi all,    We are using Operator Advisor fully implemented at a customer for over a half year now.  Yet, there is some error we encouter we do not fully comprehend.  Like the title says, the error goes like this:  Execution error in service script [GetWorkDefinitionExecutionLog] ....    It happens when we update a row in the database. I've looked at the service 'GetWorkDefinitionExecutionLog' and don't see anything why this error could occur. Now I know OA has some Java methods we can not access, and since the error says also 'Missed Context.JavaToJS() conversion', I assume it has something to do with the OA java services.    Do any of you guys know what this error is about and how we can avoid it? Whenever it occurs, it takes a few seconds to do the update the row in the DB.    Thanks for helping out.    Jasper

I cannot seem to figure out how to pass an infotable as an input to a Thingworx Service using a XML format REST call.  I am using Postman with an app key to call a Service on the platform using POST.  I am able to pass multiple other basetype inputs like strings, but the length of my infotable My question is How exactly must the infotable be formatted to properly be sent to Thingworx?  When I try to get the length of the Infotable, it always gives me 0 rows.     Here is an example REST call body that I have tried where the 'content-type' header is set to 'text/xml'.  The name of the service is 'TestXMLRest'.  There are 2 inputs: a string called 'StringInput' and a 2-row Infotable called 'MyInfoTableInput' using a datashape the contains 2 strings, 'Name' and 'PhoneNumber'.   <TestXMLRest> <StringInput>Just a string</StringInput> <MyInfoTableInput> <DataShape> <FieldDefinitions> <FieldDefinition
