I am trying to remove an extension which I have imported but there is no option for me to delete it under the import/export tab. Any suggestions? I am on localhost:8080 and using Thingworx 8.4.0

Hi Guys,   Need help in enabling tunneling of a particular thing through Edge Java SDK. I was able to add the tunnel by invoking AddTunnel service through Edge Java SDK.  Is there any service or property for EnableTunneling, so that i can invoke that service or else write the value to that property using SDK.       Thanks in advance.

I am attempting to programmatically add a property to a remote thing. I need to set the push type to "Always pushed", but passing a value of "Always pushed" as a parameter yields the following error:   Error executing service <Service>. Message :: Invalid Push Type : [Always pushed] - See Script Error Log for more details.   I've experimented with every variation of "Always pushed" I can think of with no luck. What is the proper string input needed to specify the push type?     The code for the service is below:    try{Things["myThing"].property = 0;}catch(err){var error=err.message;if(error.match(/not found on myThing/)!=null){var params = {defaultValue: undefined /* STRING */,remoteBindingAspects: undefined /* JSON */,description: undefined /* STRING */,readOnly: false /* BOOLEAN */,type: "STRING" /* BASETYPENAME */,remote: true /* BOOLEAN */,remotePropertyName: 'remotepropertyname' /* STRING */,timeout: undefined /* INTEGER */,pushType: 'Always pu

I have a textbox that takes input from a scanner (I'm using a hand-held Android based scanner). The user can scan bar codes and then services are run in the background once a user scans something. The textbox auto-selects, so there is no need for the user to click anywhere - he can just continue to scan different bar codes again and again, etc etc.    This is exactly the functionality I want, except I just want to make the textbox invisible. Once I change the 'visible' property on the textbox widget to be 'false', the textbox will no longer auto-select and all my functionality goes out the window.    Anyone ever run into this?

Just downloaded Thingworx demo and KEPServerEX 6.6 When I tried to connect KepServerEX, I got the following error: "ThingWorx Native Interface Connection to ThingWorx failed. | Platform = <servername>:<server port="">/Thingworx/WS, error = unknown error."   In summary, I think the issue was that you can not use the name "localhost" for your server name.   I checked that I had correctly setup all my ThingWorx items in Property Editor (Enabled, host name, port, application key, etc.) However, I kept having problems. I thought the problem was the application key, so i entered a bad application key and I got a different error (authentication error). I tried changing the socket from 9080 to the example's 8080 and got a socket error.   After going into the thingworx controls advisor and deleting the server and then adding a new server called "TestServer" instead of "localhost", it now works.   I'm writing this post in hope that either someone experiencing the

Hi guys,   I'm setting up a Navigate environment for a customer and installation fails during "deploy thingworx.war" step. The error I get in the ThingworxMSSQL_install.log seems to be: Step changepassword_thingworx script failed :: 1 For information, I've set up a PingFederate server (on the same server).   I also attach all the logs I collected.   I've already checked all the first resolution steps (JAVA_HOME, user admin etc...)

Hello,   I had some issue with my thingworx server so i decided to uninstalled it and redo an installation. I have to start my project from scratch and I was wondering if there is a way with the backup storage to recover a part of my project like mashup, service and things ?   Thank you

I would like to know the logging details of the kepserver data in Value Streams.   For example: If the kepserver connection with Thingworx composer is lost at 9 AM and resumed at 10AM. So, At 10AM which data of kepserver i will be receiving first in the Properties (i) The data present in kepserver from 9AM to 10AM or (ii) the data currently coming from kepserver at 10AM.   How the Value stream timestamps will be generated according to the above scenario?  

Hi, i was thingworx model tutorial. how do u get to this page on thingworx composer?  

Hi, I would need to now if and how is possible to change background color for whole header in Manufacturing Apps Masters.  I followed the customization guide, its possible to change PTC.Factory.C_MasterMashupTile_<release> in regards to logo and background color. But that is only half of the page. Rest is directly in Master which does not have a duplicate and it cannot be changed.  I only can make a copy of it, I have found out that color can be set at Master's Header's right panel.  But how many Masters do I need to copy and which mashups are using those Masters? Is there a way how to achieve this?   

Hi all, In the code above, I converted a data from MySQL into base64encodeString. Next, I want to convert this string into an image to display on Mashup. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I'm looking to update the Favicon for a mashup, however it appears that the old solution of doing it doesn't work anymore. Is this something that's still possible?   Old post: https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/Browser-Tab-Icon/td-p/506026   Thanks

Hi, currently experiencing an issue with localisation with the date picker. It appears that the calendar displays incorrectly in French (and possibly other languages which I haven't checked). The issue is that the days of the week are a mismatch with the actual calendar below. The reason for this is that in French the days of the week start with Monday ('Lu') where as in English they start with Sunday ('Su'). The actual calender days are always arranged as if the first column is Sunday.   Presumably there is an array of strings somewhere, but I am not able to find it to modify it. Does anyone have a solution for this, or has seen this issue also?   Thanks, K

Hi Team,   I have a device connected to a remote Thing by using an AppKey (DefaultAppkey) with no permissions (The associated User has no permissions). What I'm trying to do is:    - To use that DefaultAppkey only to have the device connected to the Thingworx (appearing in the Unbound Thing List), so that I can create a Remote Thing, a new User (DeviceUser) and Appkey (DeviceAppKey) (with specific permissions to run services and read/write remote properties)  - After completing the last step, I want to send that new DeviceAppKey to the device through a remote service (Let's call it SendAppKey_Service) and set some Remote properties.   I've made a service to create all these Entities, using EntityServices, set the remote properties and run the Remote Service to send the DeviceAppKey to the device (Let me call it CreateDeviceEntities_Service).    That CreateDeviceEntities_Service is called from the Thingworx side, by an Administrato

Hi, does anyone know what the most efficient way would be to migrate data from old version of ThingWorx to the latest release.  We are using PostgreSQL as persistence provider. This runs in cluster and HA mode.  DB is a different machine than Tomcat with ThingWorx.  We tried to do In-Place upgrade a had some problems with it. Suggestion was to do a migration: New DB, installation scripts etc.  export extensions and entities from old platform We have tried data export via Composer (Export to ThingWorx Storage) but that failed + we dont have lot of space on our application server. I would like to use pgAdmin or psql to copy content from ValueStream, Stream and Datatable tables (perhaps wiki and blog as well). Can anyone suggest some concrete SQLs to do that?  Thanks a lot.    Tomas

Hello, I m trying to use the 'GetEntityList' service in Thingworx which can be found in 'EntityServices' resource. This service has couple of parameters as below: // result: INFOTABLE dataShape: "RootEntityList" var result = Resources["EntityServices"].GetEntityList({ maxItems: undefined /* NUMBER */, nameMask: "PART" /* STRING */, type: "Thing" /* STRING */, tags: "CMU_MT_IOTServer2.0:AUTO" /* TAGS */ }); I am not able to understand about 'nameMask'. How is this parameter used? Does it take Reg-Ex as input or does it work on 'contains' mechanism? Kindly share some information/samples/examples on how to use this parameter. Thanks in advance. -Aditya Mittal

Hi everyone, I am using ThingWorx 8.4.0 and have some problem. When I set visibility permission for a thing, if it will become what I think, some users can see it in menu and others can't see it anywhere? or it just like in the picture, all users can see it in menu but someone can't click in it?   I have deleted all users in organization "EveryOne".But all users, admin and others, still can see all things, temples, shape and others in menu but just someone can't click in them. I even created a new thing and then give it an empty organization for its visibility, but it still could be seen by all.   I don't know what I ignore.   Thanks.
