Hi,   Can we upload images from REST API or Postman into Thingworx Repository. I am looking to upload files from Postman. Is thingworx services accept the files ? Please let me know if it is possible.  

The intend of this post. This post is for the user who want to validate that, the ThingWorx Analytics Services related to Confidence Models work successfully. Underneath video walk through the steps to validate the Services via a non-supported PTC Mashup. The intend of this video is uniquely to validate that, Services related to Confidence Models works successfully.  What package files are used in the video? The Mashup entities and dataset used in the video, is attached to this post. Feel free to download the files and test on your machine. Why use Confidence Models? A confidence model is a way of adding confidence interval information to a predictive model. Statistically, for a given prediction, a confidence model provides an interval with upper and lower bounds, within which it is confident, up to a certain level, that the actual value occurs. During predictive scoring, this measure of confidence provides additional information about the accuracy of the prediction. More informat

Hello! I have several database  things with the same configurations, that is, the same database users and passwords for them. When the user password is changed in the database (this happens every few months for security reasons), I have to go into every thing and change the passwords there manually.   Is there a way to make some kind of shared configuration for a few things? I tried to use the configuration tables, the documentation says that changing the configuration table data is not inherited.   Thanks in advance!

I have a requirement to include am charts in the thingworx. Is this possible by including amchart libraries and creating new custom widgets? Any insight in this would be helpful.

Hello, we have defined a Thing with MQTT Template, receiving packets from MQTT broker. Packets are coming and stored in a stream, but sometimes packets are lost. We know that these packets have been sent from the MQTT broker but we don't find them in the stream. The packet is received into a JSON property, and the subscription (defined on data change) read the JSON and transform it to store into the stream. Any idea ? Many thank Dimitri

Hello,  The following error cause a lot of problems about widget runtime: When loading extension widgets at runtime, the libraries used by the widgets trigger the following error: Uncaught Error: Mismatched anonymous define() module: [object Object] https://requirejs.org/docs/errors.html#mismatch at makeError (advanced-widgets-runtime-pre.js?_v=8.5.0:168) at intakeDefines (advanced-widgets-runtime-pre.js?_v=8.5.0:1254) at advanced-widgets-runtime-pre.js?_v=8.5.0:1452   I found at the end of this article the documentation: https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Release_Notes/version8.5.0ReleaseNotes.html   This error is triggered because of the following script that loads dependency: $('head').append('<script type="text/javascript" src="../Common/extensions/TimelineChartWidget-extension/ui/timelinechart/include/d3.v3.min.js"></script>'); To fix the error, you need to change the script as follows: $('head

Hi, I'm having a little issue with the collection widget that I'm using on my mashup. It isn't possible to scroll down/up with a touch-device when using Firefox on a Thin-Client. Nothing is happening (except from selecting the text) when using the standard swipe gesture that you would use on a mobile device. You can only use the way too small scrollbar which isn't always shown although it is set to "Always On" in the collection widget settings.   There already seems to be a related problem in this topic: https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/Scrolling-in-collection-widget-not-possible-in-with-touch/td-p/602684   Now here is the thing: I've managed to get touch-scroll working on regular mobile-devices with a little workaround, because it also did not worked to begin with (seems to be the bug mentioned in the linked topic). I've tested it with Firefox on Android and Chrome in Dev-Mode - it works fine now. But I still can't get it to work on the Thin-Client. &nb

We have some Atlas Copco STWrenches that are connected through Atlas Copco ToolsTalk BLM. I would like to replace ToolsTalk BLM and just use Thingworx instead and am wondering if this is possible? 

Dear community,   from Thingworx I am binding to Kepware tags, reading and writing. This works fine in general but I encountered an issue with special characters. My current example is this string: "Mis.Lác.Cond". When setting this (manually or by code) Kepware receives "Mis.Lác.Cond". In Kepware as well as in Thingworx the tag/property is defined as String.   The only report about this I could find is this article  but this does not help me as Kepware and Thingworx are running on the same machine.   Any help is greatly appreciated. Benny

Hi all,    We have used the previous valuedisplay widget allot in our projects. We are currently working on upgrading a project to the new mashups in 8.5.0.   We have had some trouble with getting the same functionality for the new valuedisplay widget as we currently have with the old valuedisplay widget. We used to render allot of images with the widget using state definitions to define what image should be displayed (the image being set up in the styles used in the state definitions).    This functionality doesn't seem to work as it did before. Is it planned to be fixed or does it work as intended? How can we then recreate the same functionality as we had before?    Kind regards,  Jasper

Hi, I have created a Thing and able to connect to OSI PI server by using REST API call directly from Thingworx. The response which we are getting from PI server as Asset hierarchy with corresponding sensors like below Eqp-1               Sensor – 1               Sensor  - 2 Eqp -2               Sensor -1               Sensor-2 In Asset Advisor we can configure Asset and them sensors using industrial connectivity(Kepware) as we know. In the above scenario how I can send the data above hierarchy from Thingworx to Manufacturing app(Asset Advisor) without Kepware?   Is there possible that I can avoid Kepware for the Manufacturing Apps(Asset Advisor) to functioning.   Could you please give me guidance how I can supply th

Hi!  In the "Create Mashup Widget Extension"- Guide it says "You can find examples of widgets in the Tomcat_Installation_Folder/webapps/Thingworx/Common/thingworx/widgets directory." (Source: https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/create-mashup-widget-extension/mashup-widget-coding )   But im my ThingWorx 8.4 trial installation this directory and its subdirectories contain no single *.js file, but only image files. I guess something has changed since the guide was written. Does anybody have hints where the JS-files for the standard widgets could be obtained? I searched for *.js files in Tomcat_Installation_Folder/webapps/Thingworx and browsed through the results, but nothing looked like the widget sources to me.
