Okay got it, so in that case here is my 2 possible idea

1. Use other apps to communicate with cmd to ping the destination server, for example using node-red and ThingWorx can communicate with Node-RED via REST Call or other programming language would also works, I find it easier just using node-red. The apps can be deployed on the same server as ThingWorx

2. Validate after creating the Things

Thanks

HI @UY_9515947

Usually, we ping it from the server that hosts ThingWorx. Can't you access the server?

Thanks

I can access both ThingWorx hosting and Database server.

Let me explain the case :

we are creating multiple MSSQL Things with JDBC Settings Parmeters as inputs.

so, wanted to Validate JDBC Settings Parmeters before creating the Things by pinging the database.
