I have a requirement to format a mashup widget's tooltip with certain information on separate lines in the tooltip.  I'm using the value display widget but being able to do this with other widgets would also be useful. It looks like chart widgets already have this capability as described in https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/platform/r9/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Mashup_Builder/Widgets/CreatingCustomChartTooltips.html# Example image from the link:The link describes built-in variables available for the charts (like #title# and #newline#), but these do not seem accessible to other widgets. Is there actually a way to get a similar tooltip result for other types of widgets, or is this a new wish list item for ThingWorx?Currently developing on Thingworx 9.5.2. 

Good morning everyone, Sorry to bother you, but I have some questions regarding some features and functions that Thingworx Composer and PostgreSQL may use together. The context is that we are going to update our Google Cloud environment, which hosts Thingworx Composer 9.5.2 with the new version 15.10 of PostgreSQL. We are going from version 12.14 to 15.10, and my IT supervisor asked me if some of these new features and enhancements in version 15.10, are used by Thingworx. However, I was unable to answer him about those topics. Are they safe, is this something to watch out for when using some functions of the thingworx, does thingworx use some or all of them, or is there nothing to worry about?  And I was trying to research these topics and only found about the Foreign Key in the Thingworx Help Center. Down below are the topics I mentioned, and the site from the version 15 release. If you have the time, of course, I humbly ask for your assistence and opinion, please.   The sou

I’m a freshman learning Thingworx and was informed that I could download some extensions from https://marketplace.ptc.com/. However, the link is unavailable and redirects to other pages. Where can I find and download some commonly used extensions?

I couldn't find any documentation regarding how to use custom dialog when developing custom widgets from any of these documentations. Are there any documentation for custom dialogs?https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/Mashup-Widget-Custom-Dialog-API/m-p/532001https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS276506 https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/web_component_sdk/overview/index.html taken from thingworx_extension_development_user_guide.pdf customEditor – the name of the custom editor dialog to use for entering and editing the widget configuration. The system assumes there is a dialog named you created TW.IDE.Dialogs..customEditorMenuText - The text that appears on the flyout menu of the widget and the hover over text for the Configure Widget Properties button. For example, “Configure Grid Columns.”

Hi @BjoernRueegg, Reference from topic.   Can the TwoDThumbnailURL.URL be downloaded and the file saved to a Thingworx File Repository using code either in a Thingworx Service or Java?  Thank you, Maria

Hello, I am installing KEPServerEX6-6.13.266.0 on my PC, but I keep getting an error message that shown as below, can someone please help me?  

Hi PTC Community,I'm currently facing an issue with the line chart in ThingWorx. Occasionally, the line chart fails to plot the last data point from the dataset. This happens inconsistently, and I haven't been able to identify a clear pattern or cause.Here are a few details about the issue:The dataset is correctly populated, and I have verified that the last data point exists.The issue doesn't occur every time but happens sporadically.When I inspect and check the preview in the API response, I can see the last data point is present, but it still doesn't show on the chart.The same data is binded to Grid and chart and i can see the last timestamp is 2024-10-24 22:00:00.000 on grid where as 2024-10-24 19:33:09.444 in linechart.Note - i am using ChartType as Step in linechart.Additionally, I noticed that when I change the start date from X time to Y time while keeping the end date the same, the graph plots correctly when using Y time as the start date.

Hello everyone, I am using the Thingworx 9.6 platform, on which I use the purge functions ‘PurgeSelectedPropertyHistory’/‘PurgeAllPropertyHistory’ on ValueStream to manage data retention. I often get the following errorERROR[java.lang.RuntimeException: com.thingworx.common.exceptions.DataAccessException: [1,018] Data store unknown error: [Error occurred while accessing the data provider.] The message is returned to me after 602 seconds.

We can allow other IPs to use the ThingWorx REST API by enabling cross-origin access. I tried modifying the web.xml file, but I couldn't get it to work. Can anyone help me?

I need thingworx cwc extended extensions for features like QA report, Audit Report, Attachements/ logsheet upload in work instruction verification step. 

The extension uses the org.apache.parquet library and writes the parquest file to Thingworx repositories. The service works correctly if Thingworx is installed on a Virtual machine. The service fails to write the file to Thingworx repositories if Thingworx is installed on kubernetes containers. In particular the extension fails by going to do a chmod 644 on the file to define the correct privileges. Has anyone had the same problem? Are there any solutions to the problem?ThanksDimitri

Im very new to Thingworx and Im trying to build my capability.I am using collection widget with data source from a service in the Thing I created.Inside the collection widget, a mashup is already defined but it doesnt seem to load when I view the mashup. My service doesnt require a parameter and it will give the infotable when executed.Infotable (headers are from the datashape I made)KPIValueColorKPINameA1blackAB2greenBC3redC UID Field: KPIMashup Property Binding:{"KPI": "number","VALUE": "string"}Child Mashup: Test Collection Data  Pls see screenshots, I cannot troubleshoot it, its not giving anything when I load the mashup

To be clear, I must create a channel in Kepserverex which requires I select a PLC driver from the list, before I can find Device Discovery in the context menu (See page 85 in the KEPServerEX V6 manual)?  The Omron NJ channel I am using did not have "Device Discovery" in the context menu. But the manual does say "is available for drivers that support locating devices on the network." Of course, I don't know which drivers support it or not.I created an Allen Bradley Control Logix Ethernet channel, then right clicked on the channel to find "Device Discovery." But there was no Device Discovery option in the menu. Should "Device Discovery" be in the context menu always? Is there a setting I am missing? Is there a way to use Kepserverex to look for an OPC connection or tell if a PLC has OPC UA or OPC DA enabled?  

Hi,   I have recently upgraded from Thingworx 9.1 to 9.7. The DB also got upgraded.   I did a dump of the DB and restored it to my local environment, and the instance is working fine. But when I do a restore, it does not work fine in the QA Environment. Below is the Error I get in the logs: 2025-02-28 11:04:13.242+0000 [L: ERROR] [O: E.c.q.l.c.Logger] [I: ] [U: Bindhu] [S: ] [P: ] [T: http-nio-8080-exec-9] Unable to Invoke Service QueryNamedPropertyHistory on Postman_Thing : com.thingworx.common.exceptions.DataAccessException: [1,018] Data store unknown error: [Error occurred while accessing the data provider.] org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: canceling statement due to user request at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.receiveErrorResponse(QueryExecutorImpl.java:2676) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.processResults(QueryExecutorImpl.java:2366) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.execute(QueryExecutorImpl.java:356) at org.postgresql.jdbc

Hi All,I am trying to use DDE to get the data from Kepware to an Excel spread sheet. This was working for a day or two then quit. I have had help from a super nice couple of people at PTC. Alin in Romania and Brent in Maine. But we are not able to get the data and there is no apparent reason for it. The Excel file has formulas in the cell that look like this '=kepdde|_ddedata!OmronNJ.MespackHFFS.ReaTop2Temperature.' When first typed into a new spreadsheet, it was populated with the current temperature. For a while it even updated with each change of the temperature. As well as all the other tags written into the spreadsheet. Then I saved the spreadsheet. I opened it Monday and there was nothing but #REF in all the cells. Starting from a blank spreadsheet, I typed in the same formulas and got the current values. But they would not update. I could see the temperature changing in the Quick Client, but the spreadsheet was not changing. I opened a new spreadsheet and typed the formula

Hi all, We have a thing in prod that was pushed from our dev environment. That thing uses a template that is outdated. We want to change the template to a new one that we are now using in dev, but pushing gives this error:How can we go about changing the template in prod? We are unable to manually delete it directly from prod since the entity was pushed there. 

Improvements in Monitoring and DiagnosticsThe Outcome of the Diagnostics Forum of YesterdayBy Tori Firewind, Principal Cloud ArchitectIntroductionMany moons ago, a forum of dedicated diagnostic enthusiasts gathered together throughout several round-table discussions to produce a list of diagnostic daydreams, groom and refine that list, and then use it to produce realistic, yet awesome diagnostics requirements. Three different organizations, eight teams in total across PTC were involved, and dozens of real-world, customer experiences were considered throughout these conferences. In the end, a large diagnostics feature was designed and passed already prioritized, from the front lines directly into the backlog in the first ever collaborative effort to do Dev Ops as a process at PTC. The fruits of this labor are now available in the latest version, ThingWorx 9.7! These features include the largely anticipated acceleration-based monitoring, custom persistence provider monitoring, and t
