Hi Michael Boyle,
I hope by external call; you mean REST calls. So, you must be using an ThingWorx Appkey for Authentication which is associated to a user.
Does that user have access to Things['ATS.Org'].ListDevices()? If No; please provide the requisite Permissions to the user.
What is the result of the Service when we login using this service? Is the result same when we make the REST calls.
Are there any errors/info in the Application/Script logs when REST call is made?
Thanks for getting back to me. And yes, it is a REST call using the AppKey ( using HTTPie ):
(I also tried using a full timestamp string -- still no data returned).
Here is an example of the output when I run the service using an EntityList as the data shape:
As for permissions, the parent object (ATS.Org), under the Run Time tab shows GREEN for Service execute. I also set Visibility to be ALL for my top level object. For my API key, I set Visibility to Allow for everyone. It is my understanding that this is sufficient. Have I missed something with respect to permissions for a service and/or access via an appKey?
As for logging -- I am getting the correct data from the script log -- details each object and the value-set properly. I do not see any error messages in the Application log. I do see this in the security logs:
No authType or appKey parameter has been specified for Authentication Scheme: AUTH_THINGWORX_APPKEY
And thanks again for reaching out: just getting started and there isn't much corporate knowledge at present. I found a good pdf on InfoTables, but have yet to find anything related to permissions on the Thingworx message boards.
