Sometimes, after restarting the laptop or incognito Runtime shows up, but most of the time, the dashboards won't come up. We tried in different ways: 1. Different Browsers 2. Restarted Laptops 3. Incognito Windows 4. Restarted the Thingworx with clearing cache When the Runtime Dashboard is opened, we get HTTP Status 403 – Forbidden Here are the errors that I faced HTTP Status 403 – Forbidden

Mashup Expression and Validator functions are not reliably storing changes to code as of Friday 5/29I open the function, make some change to the code within, click Done button to close the function editor, and when I reopen the editor whatever change I made has disappeared, reverting back to the previous value. This includes a brand new function created to test this bug. A new expression or validator created with Output = "test"will be simply a blank window after closing and reopening.I first discovered this on Friday 5/29 and again today and have tested and found the same bug in both Firefox and Chrome with the latest versions of both. Clearing browser cache and restarting had no effect. Closing all active edits in Thingworx composer and returning had no effect.This also occurs in a new, blank mashup as well as existing complex mashups.

I have a requirement for taking IEC61850 data from an IED device into the Kepserver. After which i need Factorytalk view SE using OPC UA client to read that data. How can I go about it?

Kepware dooesnt allow for logical/logical non-blocking protocols for rockwell PLCs, when accessing Program tags. This means that if an OPC client needs to access program tags, the PLC needs to be setup with Symbolic addressing, which really slows down the R/W rates on the Kepware OPC UA server. Anyone faced this issue?

I have created a mashup and a number of services to create users from a mashup and give them a certain level of access.I am able to create and update user information as an administrator/developer.  However, I have attempted to create a user from a non admin account using my mashup and I keep getting the same error:JavaException: com.thingworx.common.exceptions.InvalidRequestException: Not authorized for ServiceInvoke on CreateUser in EntityServicesI have give all users permission to execute services for the users and read/write properties.  Are there any other permissions I need to add in order for the CreateUser service to function?  Thanks,Paul ​

We are running KEPServerEX​ as an OPC UA Client​ in a production environment to connect to an IGS OPC UA Server. The total tag count is around 6,000.The issue is that KEPServer frequently suffers from connection losses and reconnections, accompanied by socket errors. Simultaneously, when checking the tag quality via Quick Client (QC), the status shows BAD. Although performing a Reinitialize​ temporarily restores normal operation, the problem recurs frequently, leading to significant data loss. This instability has caused serious frustration for the customer.How can we resolve this issue?

Hello, I have a grid widget in Thingworx 10.0.1, and based on hyperlink click event I wanted to call a service. As I have multiple hyperlinks in grid, wanted to perform action based on column type. But when I am clicking on hyperlink in grid, this newly added event in Thingworx 10 “LinkClicked” event is not triggering. Any one implemented this?

Hi,We are trying to make a hardware key work on Windows server VM running on HyperV. There is no USB passthrough, so we were thinking of DIGI AW02 hub or SILEX DS-700. Is this something that can work with HW license? Is there anything I should watch out for? I’m running KEPServerEX 6.18.

Hello, i’m facing an issue with KepserverEX6 not updating values according to specified scan rate (1000ms)  from a Modicon M580 PLC. Modbus TCP/IP driver is set, i’m using 241 tags, i use only one channel and one device. Instead of 1s i see values update roughly 5-15 seconds. There are no other clients in Kepware communicating to the same device, only one OPC UA client reads/writes the same data from localhost (soft-PLC installed in the same server where Kepware is). The same soft-PLC in parallel reads/writes data in a different channel (Simulator Driver), and there everything is okay. So i don’t think issue is coming from the soft-PLC. When i use quick client on the Modbus TCP/IP channel i also see data updating slow.Network card is 1gbit.  My channel settings that could affect the communication are following:Write Optimization :Write only latest value for all tagsDuty Cycle is set to 10Communication Serialization :Network Mode is Load BalancedEthernet Socket utilization is set One or

Hello PTC Community,I would like to confirm the expected behavior of the Kepware _System._NoError tag when it is referenced from ThingWorx.I reviewed the following support article:CS466164NoError tag value fails to update in ThingWorx when NoError tag is updating in Kepware Modified: 19-Mar-2026 / Last Seen: 15-Apr-2026As I understand the article summary, it states that:the NoError tag is updating in Kepware, but the NoError value in ThingWorx is not updating, the cause is that only the NoError tag is bound, and the suggested resolution is to bind a device static tag on the same Thing together with _System._NoError, ensure that the static tag completes its first scan, and then verify that the NoError value updates in ThingWorx.However, from my understanding, _NoError is a system tag representing the device communication state on the Kepware side, while ThingWorx is in the client position relative to Kepware.Because of that, the explanation that _NoError is not evaluated until a normal
