Hi All   Hope somebody can help me. I am tossing up whether to write my own Thing or use the HTTP integration example.    I have read the documentation here and it doesn't really answer many of my questions   http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/en/#page/ThingWorx%2FHelp%2FExtensibility%2FIntegrationConnectors%2FConnectorOview.html%23   How do I add headers? Can headers be dynamic (e.g. thing calls the HTTP connector with different properties) Can Query String be dynamic? How should URL be structured? Which logs contain the HTTP integration errors?   I am looking for an experience similar to postman.   Andrei

Hi All,   I have a service which updates a description of a mashup, the code is as below.   var params = {description: 'This is a test Mashup' /* STRING */};Mashups["testMashup"].SetDescription(params);   It updates the description but is not seen in "Description" column of spotlight search result grid.  See the "Description" column  But when I edit the mashup, I can see the description.       And when I edit and save the mashup, the updated description is seen on the description column of spotlight search result grid.   Could anyone help on this? Can we see the updated description in spotlight search result description column without performing the edit and save operation? Thanks in advance.

Hello Team,   I need to take the data from default persistence provider of thingworx to external data store like hadoop.   I think the solution can be get ModelEntities that has valuestream assigned and get the data entries from particular timestamp from the model,send to hadoop.   Or is there any other solution/alternative to offload data from persistence provider which in our case is postgresql.   Any approach will  be appreciated   Thanks,Regards, Vijay

Hello all,   We have established Raspberry Pi connection to Thingworx server with Edge microserver and Lua Script Resource and the property values update correctly. (https://developer.thingworx.com/resources/guides/thingworx-raspberry-pi-quickstart)   How can we get the values to be logged to a value stream? Value stream is defined and connected to the PiThing. Properties from RaspberryPi are bind and marked as "persistent" and "logged" (for example cpu_temperature). Initial record to the value stream is created when LSR is started but after this no new records are added. The initial record with the original time stamp just gets a new value (eg. cpu_temperature). I am querying the value stream with "QueryPropertyHistory" service.   What are we missing here?   Any help would be appreciated. ThingWorx 8.4.2-b2151

Hi Developers,   I'm currently working on a use case where the OEE has to be displayed as shown below. By default in Production Advisor app OEE and its related kpi's can be viewed over a week.   Is there any quick way to extrapolate the same feature to months? Also please suggest an high level design for this use case. I've planned to use DataTable to store kpi's against dates and project it in the chart.   Thanks and Regards, Saran
