Hello,
I want to use a cloud location for the AR experience sources (pvz files especially) is it possible to use any cloud file server (WebDAV server, HTTPS, FTP, etc.).
Many thanks
Hello @GianVal ,
regarding cloud resources - the current supported cloud resource for files or pvz Cad data files - this could be File Repository things (means Things which used the FileRepositroy Template) on your cloud Thingworx instance. You can use the service SaveBinary to upload files to a Repository folder or LoadBinary / or direct source URL to download files to Studio project .

Ok there is also other option to use some file server e.g. simple file server implemented in node.js, npx python e.g.
npx http-server C:\myServerRootLocation -p 5500
-this will call the npx http web server listening on port 5500
e.g. fileserver

I think it could be possible that such server could be placed on cloud location- this should be technically feasible, But by default the cloud team offers only server environment according to the product specifications and such non default product configuration need to be requested as some kind of customization, because the cloud team in this case should be able to maintain the application , the application data and also cloud have to guarantee the security for the customers data.
