Hello!   I'm trying to correctly display the date in the grid column. My date format is this (months go first):     In the grid properties I set the appropriate format:     But in mashup the day of the week is displayed instead of number, and the year isn't displayed at all:        

According to the latest sigma tile documentation, if I open an opc client for kepware using the SenseHat_v5 opf, I should see entries for ErrorCode and VibrationAlert.   For the opf file linked to from the LearnKepServerEXUsingSigmaTileGuide, these two tags do not appear. Any advice?

Hi everyone,   ThingWorx provides the capability to write arbitrary messages to log entities (e.g. CommunicationLog, ApplicationLog, ScriptLog, etc.) using the REST API.   As we prepare for the rollout of the next version of ThingWorx, we would like to understand if anyone is actually using the REST API to write to logs.   If so, how are you using it?   If not, we are considering removing this capability in order to focus on providing and maintaining other great functionality.   Thanks for your feedback.

Hello,   I have a requirement where I need Vary the Timestamp (12hr/24hr) Format in the Localization Token (dateTimeFormat_Default) based on the User Extension. So that the End User (at the time of registering) will select his preferred time Format and the whole application where ever the timestamps are present will show up in the as per their preference. Is this is possible. If Yes, how do we do it. As of now I have a Idea of writing a service for each and every label or grid where timestamp is being shown. But, it is not Idealistic and a mundane task to do.    

Hi,    I have widgets like dropdown, textbox and date range. I want to provide a validation on it. when i select the fields or value my data is populated in grid.

Must select or Enter a value)( Or must select the date range correctly) on button click, how can i do it?   Please provide me the way for doing it.   Thanks, Sheetal

Hello,   im not able to relicense my thingworx 8.4 with eclipse extension. When I try to license thingworx via Licensing subsystem, I get the following error:   "Unable to Invoke Service AcquireLicense on LicensingSubsystem : Unable to acquire ptc_navigate_view: Trusted storage hostid does not match system hostid.[Ljava.lang.StackTraceElement;@7d003582"   What is the reason for this? We double checked the Device Id, so this shouldnt be the Problem.   Thanks in advance    

Is there any possible way to update a Thing's Property attributes (Read Only, Persistent, Base Type, Category, etc) via script?  I found the service 'SetPropertyLogging' for turning on/off data logging, but I can't find any similar service to take care of the other attributes.   I want to be able to use a Service to update these aspects for many already-existing properties at once.

I have recently signed up as a partner. When I go to download software there is no option for Thingworx Foundation. Do you usually use the trial version then apply the full license? If not where can I download the full version of Thingworx Foundation from?   Where do I obtain Thingworx Flow? Is this included in Thingworx Foundation? Or is it a separate install like Thingworx Analytics?   Thanks!

Hello All,   Last weekend Brazil should have entered Daylight Savings Time but it was canceled earlier this year by the government. After that, some services that use times are very strange.   For instance, this simple javascript code that returns the epoch timestamp: time = new Date ("2019","09","25","0","0","0");time_ms = time.valueOf(); result = time_ms;   This returns the following result: 1571968800000.  Converting this epoch value to date time using https://www.epochconverter.com/ gives the following date-time:  Thursday, October 24, 2019, 11:00:00 PM GMT-03:00 which is offset in 1 hour from the time inserted originally.   Using the same code on an online javascript editor such as https://playcode.io/ gives the result 1571972400000 which gives the correct date.   The time on the client-side and the server-side are correct.    Any thoughts?

I created a chart mashup application using the Time Series Chart widget.  Currently I am querying data inside the mashup containing the chart widget and feeding it into the chart.  Some of my use cases may need the data queried or filtered differently, so it may be more useful to pass in the InfoTable of data into the mashup as a parameter.   My question is whether it would be feasible to pass in the 16 InfoTables of data (max pens for Time Series Chart widget) with potentially 100s or 1000s of data points each?  Are InfoTables passed into Services and Mashups by reference or by value?  Or in other terms, Is a local copy of the InfoTable created when passed into a Service or  as a Mashup parameter? This information will help determine memory usage and effects.

Hi, hoping someone might have a solution to a problem we are having when applying the license bin file on startup for a linux server. It looks like it gets the license file, but fails to start up. We are running the start up as root to test.  Below is the errors we see in the application log 2019-11-04 19:48:00.571+0000 [L: INFO] [O: c.t.s.s.Subsystem] [I: ] [U: SuperUser] [S: ] [T: localhost-startStop-1] Starting Subsystem [LicensingSubsystem] 2019-11-04 19:48:10.421+0000 [L: WARN] [O: o.a.h.c.p.ResponseProcessCookies] [I: ] [U: SuperUser] [S: ] [T: localhost-startStop-1] Invalid cookie header: "Set-Cookie: visid_incap_1771292=fQXYN9JSTxC+vZ2H074m93mAwF0AAAAAQUIPAAAAAACIdU6MhoTtktTrSVr45uS5; expires=Tue, 03 Nov 2020 10:54:13 GMT; path=/; Domain=.ptc.com".

Hi, I am using ThingWorx 8.2 and suddenly the license got ignored. I generated a new license for my device id and deployed it again. But it ignored the license again. Please help me to resolve this issue.   Thanks, Shalini V.

Hello Experts,   Good Evening...!  I am looking for a method to link the Chart widget or another mashup to the values/parameters available in the Advance Grid containing info table data. Want your suggestions how I should get it done. FYI I am at beginner level about TWx platform

We have an old version that we cant get up and running again.Version 7.4 running on Ubuntu 14TLSI'm now trying to build a new server and restoring/moving data from old to new.Steps I've taken:Have a new server CentOs 7 with Postgres. Thingworx 8.4.2 installed and working. Can login to Thingworx composer etc.I then copy the folders related to Thingworx from the old server to the new. I also export the data out the old server with pgdumpOn the new server I recreate the DB with the scripts provided in the install directory. I then import the pg dump file into the new server.When I start tomcat I cant access the website.Error:503 Service UnavailableBack to composer.

Good afternoon,   I recently connected Thingworx to a remote OPC server via the OPC Aggregator. The connection was made successfully and all of my devices are populated as Things in Thingworx. Within the Thingworx Composer I can browse all tags normally via any Mange Bindings screen. However, when I try to browse for tags in either the Trends & Troubleshooting or Configuration & Setup, I cannot expand past the top level. Why would I be able to browse for tags in Composer but not from within any of these mashups? See attached screenshots for the differences.  

Hi guys,   I am trying to figure out how to customize the KPI calculations on a shape level and not equipment level.  Is this possible?    For instance in my system quality is always 100%.  I tried changing the QualityRatio_Calculate service on the PTC.SCA.SCO.QualityRatioThingShape thing shape but that is not possible.  Where can I set this then because it has to be true for all assets.   Any assistance is welcome.

Hi All,   I want to create website like menu similar to screenshot below using thingworx mashup. I had tried creating the same using thingworx widget like (tabs).

Hi,   We can create and set remote binding programmatically. But how can we set property attributes such as "Start Type", "Cache Method" and other parameters related to remote property.   I have attached the image for better understanding.   Also, I have shared the code which I tried.       With regards Yedukrishnan   var aspects = {"industrialDataType": "Short","tagAddress": "Channel1.Device1.tag3","scanRate": 1000,"tagType": "Static","readOnly": "true"};   var params = {propertyName: "PropertyTag" /* STRING */,pushThreshold: 0 /* NUMBER */,aspects: aspects /* JSON */,foldType: undefined /* STRING */,sourcePropertyName: undefined /* STRING */,timeout: 0 /* INTEGER */,pushType: "VALUE" /* STRING */,cacheTime: undefined /* INTEGER */}; // no returnme.SetRemotePropertyBinding(params);   With regards Yedukrishnan
