Remote pvz file upload

[GianVal]

I want to create an AR experience starting from a remote pvz resource and not directly uploading the content.

Is it possible? how to?

many thanks

You can set model source in JS

$scope.view.wdg['model-4']['src']=<url>;

I have done it with pvz-files stored in the Thingworx server.

i'm getting errors embedding the URL. how to write it properly? can you provide me an example?

[pandersson]

I entered the url as "https://<hostname>:port/Thingworx/<filerepos>/.....?appKey=jkhfsakjahfkj"

When I used Thingworx as filevault.

I tried to stream directly from Windchill but then I got issues on firewalls and other security rules. My phone was not connected to the network where the Windchill server was.

I just tried using the public pvz https://github.com/PTCInc/StudioExamples/raw/master/3D-Guided%20Service%20Instructions/3D-Guided%20Service%20Instructions%20300/quadcopter301.pvz but it didn't work. why?

[pandersson]

You have a CORS issues:

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://github.com/PTCInc/StudioExamples/raw/master/3D-Guided%20Service%20Instructions/3D-Guided%20Service%20Instructions%20300/quadcopter301.pvz' from origin 'http://localhost:3000' has been blocked by CORS policy: The 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header has a value 'https://render.githubusercontent.com' that is not equal to the supplied origin.

Use Developer tools in preview to see this message.

this is why I used repositories in the connected Thingworx as file storage.

I extracted the pvz file from Windchill to Thingworx as part of an ordering-process of the experience. I also didn't want the experience to have direct contact with the Windchill server.
