Change property value from service (javascript)

[binaryPUNCH]

Hi. Can I please see a simple example on how to change the value of a property from a javascript service? A property on the same thing the service is running on. I'm struggling a little on figuring this out and finding the proper documentation.

I can get the property object through the Things["TestThing"].GetPropertyDefinition() function but what then? How do I know the name of the thing that invoked the service? Must it be an input parameter :(

Hi,

A service is called from a Thing, so if you want to change the value of a property just use:

var my_value="test";

me.property_name=my_value;

Instead of me, you can use the name of any Thing you want.

Best regards,
