Obtain your license Activation ID(s). Activation IDs are provided to new customers in the entitlement letter. Existing customers can visit the PTC Support site to obtain.

Rename the file to license.bin and place it in the ThingworxPlatform folder

Open the platform-settings.json file and add the following inside the "PlatformSettingsConfig":

"LicensingConnectionSettings":{

"username”:”PTC Support site user name",

"password”:”PTC Support site password",

"activationIds":"XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX,

XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"

}

NOTE: You must have an Activation ID to ensure your license is current.

Multiple IDs must be separated with a comma.

{

    "PersistenceProviderPackageConfigs": {

        "PostgresPersistenceProviderPackage": {

            "ConnectionInformation": {

                "jdbcUrl": "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/thingworx",
