Hello Vladimir,

Thanks for your response, I am aware of the article shared by you but it navigates to the IBM portal but nothing much in detail for Thingworx. Can you please support by sharing the right content or configuration details?

Thanks.

What you can and can't do with IBM MQ would be a question to ask in an IBM forum.

ThingWorx can be a MQTT Client via extension or via Kepware.

ThingWorx also has  a REST API which you can use to interact with it. You can also call REST endpoints of other systems with the ContentLoaderFunctions.

ThingWorx also has an extension mechanism where you can bring in your own java-based extensions to extend functionality, e.g. to support the API of a different system.
