It would be really helpful, if anybody could guide us on importing a 3rd party Web application based on Angular JS into Thingworx?

Good day All,   I am having difficulties with getting the Google Maps widget to work in Thingworx 8.3.4. From the extension documentation I must use the Google Maps version 3.0.3 (for Thingworx versions 8.2.8+). A prerequisite for this it seems from the support documentation and the Google Maps guide on the developers portal (https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/google-map-widget-how/configure-google-maps-widget-extension) is to add a "Required string to connect with Google for Google widgets" under the PlatformSubsystem. In Thingworx 8.4.0+ it seems to be available, but for version 8.3.4 there is no such property to add this String field and then the Google Maps extension does not work.   I tried then reverting back to the previous version of the Google Maps widget (3.0.1) and I added my API key to the metadata.xml file as previously done and described here (https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS188314&posno=1&q=google%20extension&DocumentType

I'm trying to display a PDF in the mashup. I know that most people suggest using Webframe and either linking the files from the FIleUploader Widget or create a repository. Is there a way to have a list of PDF names and once its clicked it shows the different PDFs in the Webframe widget.

I am trying to merge 9 Infotables into one. Right now I am using Union to merge two at a time, then merge the resulting tables together. Does anyone know of a more efficient way to do this? All of the infotables have the same data shape.var result12 = Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result1,t2:result2});var result34=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result3,t2:result4});var result56=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result5,t2:result6});var result78=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result7,t2:result8});var result14=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result12,t2:result34});var result58=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result56,t2:result78});var result18=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result14,t2:result58});var result=Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].Union({t1:result18,t2:result9});

How do i make the thing's properties to have latest of logged values? Because, in general, when the properties are logged, they should possess latest of the logged values. I have assigned the value stream and 'QueryPropertyHistory' service returns me the historical data yet, the properties are not possessing latest of the logged values. How to resolve this issue??

Good day All,   I am having some difficulties getting the new version of the Google Maps Extension to work with a Google API key. I have followed the steps in the supporting documentation but I am clearly missing something.   I have created the API key, downloaded the extension from the marketplace and saved to a directory. When I execute the GetGoogleMapConnectionString I get this result:           And when I run the SetGoogleMapConnectionString I get the following error message: "Unable to Invoke Service SetGoogleMapsConnectionString on PlatformSubsystem : Table [PlatformInformation] does not have a field named [googleMapsConnectionString]".   Any advice to what step I am missing?   Kind regards, Johan Bester

The accuracy of a predictive model can be boosted in two ways: Either by embracing Feature engineering or by applying boosting algorithms straight away. There are multiple boosting algorithms like Gradient Boosting, XGBoost, AdaBoost, Gentle Boost etc. Every algorithm has its own underlying mathematics and a slight variation is observed while applying them. While working with boosting algorithms, we have come across two frequently occurring buzzwords: Bagging and Boosting. Bagging: It is an approach where you take random samples of data, build learning algorithms and take simple means to find bagging probabilities.Boosting: Boosting is similar, however the selection of sample is made more intelligently. We subsequently give more and more weight to hard to classify observations.Below are Default Algorithms used in Predictive Models generated in ThingWorx Analytics:Decision TreeGradient BoostLinear regressionNeural NetRandom ForrestLogistic RegressionGradient boosting is a machine learni

Hi Guys, I need to synchronize the calculation period of KPIs. Does anyone know how to do that?  I.e. If I set 60m calculation period I need to start at whole, : 10:00, 11:00 etc. For all the assets. Calculation period itself is not important, only start time is.  Anyone?

Hi,   I built a mashup where I call 2 services and they are linked to a "auto-refresh" (30 seconds)   The 1st services is used to display a set of information. On the second service, I pass 2 parameters coming from the 1st service.   When I execute the mashup, all data from the 1st service are displayed immediatly, but data from the second service is refreshed are not refreshed. I have to wait 30 second (after the 1st auto-refresh) to see my data.   I can't understand why.   Any idea ?    Thanks.
