Hi,       I want my mashup report to be exported in excel format. Is there any way to so? please provide me the solution for this.   Thanks in advance !! Sheetal sable    

I'm trying to change the status field in one row or multiple rows by clicking the button above. For example, if I selected row 3, then I click the "Approve" button, the status field should become "Approve". The field Status in my data shape is  string type, and I plan to write a service to overwrite the status of a row every time I click the button.  I'm trying to do so, but I'm confused about what should I pass in as a parameter for my service, what should I return. Is there any built-in services that can overwrite a field of a data shape inside a data table. Thanks!

ThingWorx 7.4 introduces a new licensing system. A license file (license.bin) needs to be placed in the ThingworxPlatform folder. A new license file is also required if you upgrade from 7.4  to a major or minor release (not service pack-level releases). For example:• If you are using version 7.3, a license is not required.• If you upgrade from version 7.4.1 to version 7.4.2, a license upgrade is not required.• If you upgrade from version 7.4.3 to version 7.5.2, a license upgrade is required.Refer to the Installing ThingWorx 7.4 guide or Upgrading ThingWorx 7.4 guide for detailed process steps.Paid customers would have unlimited use of entities for 7.4.0. As currently a license file is locked to  version rather than SCN/host and is part of download package on  PTC Support, customers can use the same downloadable for multiple instances.Developer Trial Edition provides a constrained license file (5 users, 100 things, 120 days), and the license file is part of on premise dow

Hello, I'm currently trying to make a POSTXML request to an external server webhook which accepts XML payloads and parses them according to our requirements. I'm trying to use the ContentLoaderFunctions PostXML function but when I execute the service I get  [message: Execution error in service script [UptimeAlert] :: Premature end of file.] My code is the following with our actual URL redacted for security reasons // result: STRING var IPAddress = Things["UsefulServerInfo"].ServerName; var newUrlName = me.name.replace(" ", "%20"); var server = '<Server>'+IPAddress+'</Server>'; var site = '<Site>'+me.relatedSite+'</Site>'; var line = '<Line>'+me.relatedLines+'</Line>'; var asset = '<Asset>'+me.displayName+'</Asset>'; var technology = '<Technology>None</Technology>'; var alertname = '<AlertName>'+AlertName+'</AlertName>'; var alertdescription = '<AlertDescription>'+AlertDescription+'</AlertDescription&g

Hi everyone, i chose Thingworx platfom for my study project. In general, there is should be robot which sends and also recieves data from Thingworx mashup via Nodemcu ESP8266. I followed this tutorial, but it didnt work for me https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/connect-adafruit-feather I tried to launch it on next 2 platforms with different UI for some reason https://ptcu-thingworx83-fundamentals.portal.ptc.io/Thingworx/Composer and  https://academic.cloud.thingworx.com/Thingworx/Composer/ Got only some messages from port monitor like state: 0 -> 2 (b0) I actually confused about this, so is it possible to connect my ESP to one of these platforms and what the difference here? Can anyone help with some advice or even working example? Actually some simple operation of sending any number from ESP to Thing property would be enough for me.  Thanks a lot in advance.

How can i create data table(s) with its data shape through service scripting?

Continuing our series of Troubleshooting ThingWorx Analytics installations, in this IoT Tech Tip we will cover two items have been appearing for many users.   Error 1069 Encountered with Native Windows Installation of ThingWorx Analytics 8.2   In some instances, when a user successfully installs ThingWorx Analytics (TWAS) to a Windows Server operating system, they will encounter an error where TWAS will report an Error 1069: The Service did not start due to logon failure.   This can occur with any individual Service that is created by the installation, the following fix should work in addressing the issue.   Primary Reason This Happens:   This error can be encountered when the user provides incorrect credentials for associating the Services to an account during installation. In TWAS 8.2, there is a utility that will enable to the user to change the associated user on the Services. It is important the user provides the password for the User Account on Windows, a

Hello All,   I am trying to access my temperature sensor reading from my hosted ThingWorx server(which is in trial period). I am able to do so successfully using Postman. Kindly also note that I am behind corporate proxy.   However, I am unable to access the sensor readings from a hosted angular 1 js web application(Azure VM). I repeatedly get CORS error. I a not able to understand why this error doesn't arise from postman or my node-red flow.   Kindly suggest how can it be resolved.   Regards, Aarushi

In the ptc-windchill-extension-1.0.0-14.zip archive there is an extension called infotableselector_ExtensionPackage.zip​ . This extension enables the use of the Widget called Infotable Selector, which can be used to clear the selection in a grid.For how to use this widget, take a look at the picture:

Here, the problem is with placing widgets on the layout through panel widgets and thus that widget becomes non_responsive and we are having to position those widgets in accordance with the screen resolution chosen.  It would be helpful if someone could give some inputs on making the mashup screen more responsive.

How do i go for doing the following things through scripting: 1) Mashup creation through scripting 2) Widget(s) placing on mashup through scripting 3) Property binding to widgets on mashup through scripting 4) Setting/Altering widget parameters on mashup through scripting 5) Creation of media entities & style definitions through scripting  

Hi,   I wonder when a transaction service calls other transaction services but they don't use the same DatabaseThing to query/store data, are these database transactions managed by a single transaction scope?   My Bests, Hung Tran

Hello everyone,   so I am wondering whether it is possible to "extend" a thing shape by another thing shape.   E.g I have a thing shape called "ThingWithLocation" which just contains a location property and another Thing Shape called "ThingWithState" which contains some sort of state property.   Now I would like to create a Third Thing Shape called "ThingWithStateAndLocation" without defining it from scratch (would be a lot of redundant code in case of more complex services contained in the thing shapes).   Note: I am aware that you can simply add both Shapes to a Thing or Template, but I would like to extend the "ThingWithStateAndLocation" Shape with mechanism that takes the properties of the different shapes into account. (e.g if the location changes the state changes to "moving") By adding each shape individually to a thing I would have to implement the mechanism over and over again for every thing/ thing template.   Any advices are appreciated very much. &n

I keep getting a type error when trying to query a DataTable.

I have recently been learned how to connect to kepware and pull in kepware tag data into Thingworx. I am wondering if I would be able to call a service based on a kepware tag reading value change without having to have a mashup open on a screen. Essentially, I would like to take advantage of how quickly Thingworx can trigger events without having to worry about hosting a mashup. Is there a piece of Thingworx functionality that I can look into for more detail about the possibilities of doing this?

Hi,    I'm going through the proces of understanding the entire datamodel of OA. I've looked into ProcessingResourceClass. Why does this table have a field called "ThingName"? In my understanding ProcessingResourceClass is just a class for a recource like tools, equipment, workstation type, ... but not an instance in itself.    Jasper

Hi,    I'm learning how Operator Advisor works and how we can use it in our future projects.  I understand when I add properties in the _AP table before I run the service 'CreateTables', the properties are added in de database table.   But let's say the project is live, already containing data, and I want to upgrade the data model. How do we do this? Do we add a field in the datashape and add a column in the database manual? Or are there services to update all _AP tables? Because 'CreateTables' goes in error if I try a second time.   Jasper

Hi everyone, I have a repeater widget on my mashup and i dont know to know if it's possible to set properties from the mashup that is inside the repeater to different things that are in the same template. The purpose of this mashup is that, the user will set a value to the text box and this value that was set by the user will be sent to the property inside the thing. The problem that i am having is that when i set a value to the text box, that value is being put on both things instead of just one of then. Image of the Mashup below. Thanks!
