creating entities

[AP_9587236]

While creating any entities, the project name & model tag name should be selected by default. How to enable this functionality?

Hi @AP_9587236

In the 9.x releases, project name is required, but model tag is optional, so there is no way within composer to do this.  However, you can create entities by wrapping the CreateThing service, CreateThingShape service, etc. with your own service to pass both the project name and tag as input parameters.  These Create services all exist within the EntityServices Resource.

In EntityServices Resource, I can see services to create datashapes, things, thingshapes and thingtemplates. But how to create datatables, schedulers, subscriptions? What services will be used for this?

Hi @AP_9587236

I recommend checking out our Developer Portal where you will find a number of guides and learning paths.  For example, here is one that will provide more information on data tables and other storage methods:

Methods for Data Storage

You can also find information in the ThingWorx Help Centers.

If you are interested in obtaining training options, please reach out to the Sales team.
