Hi,   I currently have a panel like the picture above, which allows users to type in a new building name and select a site from a dropdown list and add it to the database.   After the user clicks the 'Add' button, both the Building name textfield and the Sitename dropdown list should be emptied out. Right now, when a user clicks Add, the Building name textfield becomes empty (I did it binding the textfield to a property and writing a service that changes the property to '  '). But, it does not empty the dropdown list. I have tried using the same method I used for the textfield like binding a property to the selectedText feature of the dropdownlist and setting that to ' ', but this doesn't seem to work for the dropdown widget.   How can I achieve this? Thank you!

Am having 2 butttons. If i click first button, another button's color have to change. How to do it?

I am trying to open a second mashup into a contained mashup using Navigation widget, when I click the Navigation button it opens a new window or replaces the existing window and does not open the mashup in the contained mashup. Is there a way to get the second mashup to open in the contained mashup and not replace existing window or open in a new window? I would like the users to be able to select which option they would like to see and have the ability to stay on the same page and open a different selection without having to navigate back to the original mashup from a new window or one that has replaced the current window.

I am not able to establish an HTTP integration from The Thing Network to ThingWorx and therefore not able to view the data coming from The Thing Network in ThingWorx mashup. Though when I am hitting the url via postman, I am able to see the changes in mashup.

Hi, I want to connect Softing dataFEED OPC suite to Thingworx platform and view tags(manage bindings) like we do when we connect using Kepware with Thingworx platform. I have tried the OPC UA extension from market place but in this we need to define each tag address in the .config file. If there are large number of tag addresses which we want to read using this extension becomes very tedious. Please let me know if anyone has tried connecting any other tool like kepware to ThingWorx Platform or let me know if there is a tweak for the OPC UA extension Regards, SKD  

Hi Folks,   We have huge amount of data in streams, when we export all data from streams Thingworx instance gets down. is there any other way to take entire backup.   Thanks.

I want to to create a tooltip property for the shape widget which is available by default. I have changed the shape.ide.js and shape.runtime.js files available in Tomcat\webapps\Thingworx\Common\thingworx\widgets\shape with as attached. In shape.ide.js I have added 'supportsTooltip': true and Properties: 'ToolTipField': { 'description': TW.IDE.I18NController.translate('tw.button-ide.properties.label.description'), 'defaultValue': TW.IDE.I18NController.translate('tw.button-ide.properties.label.default-value'), 'baseType': 'STRING', "isBindingTarget": true, 'isLocalizable': true }, In shape.runtime.js I have added if (updatePropertyInfo.TargetProperty === 'ToolTipField') { thisWidget.setProperty('ToolTipField', updatePropertyInfo.SinglePropertyValue); } in updateProperty(). But my Shape widget is not showing Tooltip in the properties section of the widget when I put it in a mashup. Where am I getting wrong ?

Hello everyone,   so I am trying to install the latest Thingworx Foundation trial. The downloaded trial only contains the twxFoundationH2Trial-8.3.2-windows-installer.exe file.   After having set a password and trying port 80 (and 8080) the installation fails after "Waiting for the Thingworx Platform".   Then the following Error Windows appear: Attached you can find the installation log.   Any help is appreciated very much.   Best Regards, Dominik  

I am trying to install the 120 day ThingWorx Foundation 8.3 trial. I created a Keystore.jsk file using the following instructions: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/ssl-howto.html#Prepare_the_Certificate_Keystore    During the installation when I try to move past the "Properties for ThingWorx Foundation" page, I receive an error that reads: Unable to validate the keystore file with the provided keystore password. (See attached picture).   I have tried multiple times and have confirmed that I am using the correct password but am still getting this error.    Another issue is that in all the installation guides there is reference to license and thingworx_platform.json files. I did not receive these files with the installation and don't know where to find them.   Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am using a SQL query that looks something like this: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Location  When I test it, I get the following: How do I get that as an integer datatype? Because I need to bind this value to a label widget or any widget that displays values.    I have tried changing the output basetype to integer and it still does not work.

Hi Everyone,   I have created a stream thing and I have a service in another thing which writes a line at the stream thing. I would like to write just one line per day, when the service triggers, but I do not know why after the first trigger it writes one new line every minute. What am I doing wrong?   Thanks, Felipe Duarte

I have deleted ScriptLog.log file from ThingworxStorage/Logs/ and now I don´t have script logs in Composer. I tried creating the file, adding tomcat8.5 user and group owner but no luck.   I have ThingWorx 8.3.1-b441 installed on Ubuntu 16.04 with PostgreSQL and Tomcat.

Hello Everyone,   I am trying to deploy Thingworx Analytics with my Foundation Server. So I have the Foundation Trial 8.3 and the Thingworx Analytics Trial 8.3.2 installed.   According to this guide, I could simply set up Analytics by going to the Analytics Section in the Composer. There it says I should go to Analytics Builder -> Settings and choose a Analytics Server Thing.   Unfortunately when I do this, I can not chose a Analytics Server Thing but I am ask to enter Application ID, Application Key and Endpoint Host. I am not quite sure what to enter as an Application ID and Endpoint Host.    Foundation and Analytics are both installed on the same machine btw.   Any help is appreciated very much.   Best Regards, Dominik

I am trying to get a .NET (C#) windows service running using the thingwork .net API.  Everything builds and the service installs.  On launch, the ConnectedThingClient constructor calling base fails on the TWAPI dll.  I have tried 'any cpu', x64 specific and x86 specific builds/installs and they result in either a bad configuration error from windows a 607 TWAPI error.    Has anyone written/installed/run a windows service to interact with the TW platform through the TW .NET API?

Hi guys, I'd like to make a Master containing a Menu and a Contained Mashup. What I did: 1 Create 4 Mashups with a random content. 2 Create a Menu 2.1 Add 4 menuitems (Type: Mashup; Link: Mashup_foo; Target: replace page) 3 Create a Master 3.1 Add a Menu widget to the left sidebar 3.2 Add the Menu created in step 2 as value for the Menu property of the Menu widget 4 Add the Master created in step 3 as value for the Master property of any Mashup I use   I thought that would be enough to make it work properly but somehow when I view any of the Mashups and use the menu nothing happens. What am I missing?   Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Developers,   I'm trying to fetch xml content from this SAP odata ProductSet URL. I had used "GetXML" content loader function for this and got the below error:   <error xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata" headers="accept=application/xml"><code>005056A509B11ED19BEB6513AA349DA5</code><message xml:lang="en">The resource identified by the request is only capable of generating response entities which have content characteristics not acceptable according to the accept headers sent in the request</message></error>  The service code is as follows:   var headers = { "accept": "application/xml" } var params = { proxyScheme: undefined /* STRING */, headers: headers /* JSON */, ignoreSSLErrors: "true" /* BOOLEAN */, useNTLM: undefined /* BOOLEAN */, workstation: undefined /* STRING */, useProxy: undefined /* BOOLEAN */, withCookies: undefined /* BOOLEAN */, proxyHost: undefined /* STRING *

Under which circumstances ThingWorx generates this errors when interacting with it using the REST API?   My Application log is full of this messages that appear more than one time per request. Also when I try to set properties using the REST API I realise some properties are not set if this error appears. 

Hello everyone,   I have been trying to install the newest Thingworx Foundation trial lately. After running into problems as described in this and this Thread, I created a VM with a freshly installed Windows 10.   So after running the twxFoundationH2Trial-8.3.2-windows-installer.exe, the installation hangs up (it does not explicitly "fail") at "Starting Thingworx".   After canceling the installation task with the taskmanager (because the service is inactive), I am left with the created folders as seen below:   When trying to rerun the install.exe I get the following Error message: "There has been an error. You already have ThingWorx Foundation Trial ... installed".   The problem is, the "installation" folder does not contain an uninstal file. Also I cant find "ThingWorx Foundation" or similar when I search my Programs (in order to uninstal it). The Error message keeps coming up even after I deleted that folder.    So my first

Hi,   I have a problem binding a property of a thing to an sql-dataquery. Sorry for the "unadvanced explanation" in forehand. What I would like to do: In General: I have a dataset in an sql database. My things have a property called LineID. I want to get a dataset for the specific LineID, e.g. 5.   What I did: In the composer, in a Template I wrote a sql code called BottelneckCurrentOrderARRS: SELECT [LineID] ,[mcName] ,[BCR] ,[CycleTime] ,[ShiftOEE] FROM OEE_CurrentOrder //This connection is established and works fine where LineID= [[LineID]] order by CycleTime desc  This code should invoke data, from a specific Line. Lets say the lineID is 5. The database contains data about several Lines but in this case I am only interested in the attributes of Line5.  Question 1: Can I write a comparison like i wrote ( where LineID= [[LineID]])) ? In the thing template of the line, the property LineID is stored under Properties->Thingshape.->LineID &nb

Hi Developers,   We're now upgrading the existing Thingworx - 7.2.11-b17 platform to Thingworx 8.x version. There is a dilemma on choosing over the different 8.x versions (8.1, 8.2, 8.3) available currently.    SCM feature under the ThingWorx Utilities Extesion is one of the main factors for the upgradation. As far as i can see the 8.1 and upward versions focus more on the Navigate and manufacturing apps extension which is not within our scope for now. Also I had faced some license issues on 8.2 and above versions.    Please do note that we had developed all our custom entities, services, extensions on Thingworx - 7.2.11-b17 platform. This is significant because we had imported our custom entities onto 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 platforms to conduct preliminary testing and found that the password criteria in 8.2 and above versions has been changed (minimum of 10 characters). This is affecting our service in User management module and there are other m

Hi, I have been doing some research to find out how to connect "'things" to Manufacturing apps when not using KepServer. We have a project coming up that will require an Arduino with some sensors to connect to Manufacturing apps. I assumed, that as the modbus works so well with the RaspberryPI (Sensehat Example) that the same could be done with the Arduino. I cant find a way to do it. Ideally I would like to connect to Kepserver and then to TWX. If you have some suggestions I would appreciate that.  If that's not possible how easy is it to take my Arduino things communicating via REST and use those in MFG Apps? Regards, Bryan
