Hi,
Every time when I fixed a bug in the local dev system and then import the thing's entity xml file to the testing/production system, the value of persistent property get reset in the target system. I have to manually input them again.
Why is the behavior designed like this ? or it's a bug ? I'm currently using ThingWorx 8.5.5 , but the problem has existed since 8.4 at least.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Sorry, my mistake. I just found the import function has a new option "Overwrite Property Values" since ThingWorx 855.

I expect that this is the expected behavior. The Thing concept, besides its definition (property/alert/event definition) includes also the state (property values) and logic (service), and they are all imported at once, hence the overwrite.
If you want to import something I suggest (but am not 100% sure) to see how the Thing import behaves at the Configuration Tables level - does it override current configured values there or does it leave them intact?
