I tried to change data by Composer UI then the subscription is triggered. I have set visibility to ThingworxPeristentProvider for System User by reading similar topics but the situation is not changedCan someone help me?Thanks

Hi all,   What i want to do is to send a valid downloadLink in an email so that my user can directly click on this link to download the file. I can get the complete link like http://myServer/Thingworx/SystemRepository/uploads/myFileName and i am able to send it by email but if the user clicks on this link, he is redirected to the server login page, which is fine for authentication, but after the authentication, the master mashup is displayed. Any Idea ?

Hi all,   The ThingWorx product team is examining features in our product, on the lines of what are being used, how are they being used, and where we can improve; a telemetry of sorts.   The current topic is the Blog and Wiki Widget - we want to know where, why and how you are using Blogs and Wikis.   Thanks!  

Hello all,   I have a collection widget with in each cell a button 'delete' to delete that particular cell. When I click on this button, it call the service 'GetMashupsToDisplay' and deletes the according row in its infotable. So the result = all cells minus the row for the deleted cell. (= OK)   Now on my dashboard, the cell is deleted as well. (= OK) However, it seems the height of the 'deleted' cell remains present and now there is a white hole between my cells... (= not ok!) How does this happen?? How to solve this??  

I have a service which runs a loop and keeps setting the value in a session variable. Service is executed on click of button in mashup by a user. I want to stop the previous thread when the user re-clicks the button.

I need to add a new field to an existing data table that already contains data.  When I try to add the new field in the data shape, a dependency confirmation popup window appears.      Does this mean that the fidelity of the existing data cannot be guaranteed if I add a new field?  What kind of negative impacts could occur by adding a new field?  

I have a Bar chart on my mashup. That is showing few series of data. I want to change a color of a particular bar within a series in a bar chart, depending on a value that is stored in a different table. I tried to do some state formatting. But it is changing the color of the entire series. I just want to change only a particular bar's color. I am attaching an image for the reference. Also is there any way to change color of bars from a service?   Thanks in advance.

Hi, although in theory the option to install and upgrade Thingworx with an installation-routine is great, it has some catches in reality. Especially for upgrades.   I'm talking about the installation routine for windows. I have no idea how similiar the Linux version is.   Scenario: Windows Server 2016 with Java 8 and Thingworx 9.0 (Installed with Installation routine) Goal: Change Java 8 to OpenJDK Amazon Corretto 11 and Update TWX to 9.1   I've switched my Java Version to Corretto 11 and follow the instructions. After that I've try to start tomcat again and it fails. After a bit of reasearch I noticed that following Tomcat parameter caused the error: -Xlog:gc:file=<path>/ThingWorxFoundation/tomcat/current/logs/gc.log:time,level,tags   After removing it the Tomcat service starts just fine and I leave it be.   Now I try to install the TWX 9.1 update: Starting up the installation routine I get the error that my Java Version is too old and I should

I'm using Thingworx 8.5.3 and am running into a slight issue when using flexcontainers. When going to view the mashup, I briefly see a container that is supposed to start collapsed as the mashup loads. It does collapse almost immediately, but I would rather that it's not seen at all when going to view the mashup until it's supposed to. Is there a way to fix this?To give a few more details, the mashup consists of four flex containers positioned vertically. On the container second from the top, expand and collapse is enabled but the checkbox for Enabled is not checked since we want it to start collapsed. There are also bindings to both expand and collapse and if I remove all of them, the problem is still there.   Any help in figuring out what is happening here is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Using the Tabs widget in ThingWorx 8.5.7, it adds a 20px margin around the content of each tab.  Is there a way to remove or reduce that margin?       I found another topic here about adjusting the margin in a Tabs widget with a solution of the custom CSS below, but adding that CSS doesn't change anything for me.   ptcs-page-select::part(pages) { margin: 10px !important; }

How do one clean a Thingworx core system?   I have a system running in AWS on AWS-Linux with a MSSQL RDS DB. From time to time developers wants a clean system. Cleaning the DB with thingworxMssqlDBCleanup.sh works well. How do one clean the actual core server. What folders/files can be cleaned to make the installation as good as new.   Kind Regards    

I'm currently creating a Mashup that will be used to create and edit data tables without having to go into Thingworx Composer. I have a rough editor, but I need a way for the user to choose whether they are editing an existing data table or creating a new one. Let me outline the process I want. First, they will need to choose whether or not they are creating a new table or loading an existing one. I have facilitated this by creating a separate mashup that has two buttons that the user can click: "Create New" and "Load Existing". Second, they need to either enter the needed data to create a new table or choose which table they are going to edit. Completing this step will then take them to the actual editor, so that they can add, update, or delete entries. I have a couple of ideas that I will explain below, but they're not working for me.   Idea One: Use a series of navigation functions that replace the contained mashup widget with the appropriate mashup, starting with "choice mashu

I'm building a mashup that is an experience portal. A user will log-in and use the portal to view which experiences they have access to and other data associated with those experiences. One of the types of experiences I have requires the user to use it multiple times. I want to allow the user to see the history of use by using a tree grid. I only need to go down one level of children, and not every experience needs children. I've already figured out how to show the expandability of a row, my problem is getting the child data to show up. I've written a service that should work (I'll share it below), but the children don't show up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.   //input: selectedExperience (InfoTable DS: AR_ExperiencesForGroups)//    brought in by SelectedRow in the mashup   let result; // result: STRINGlet username = Resources["CurrentSessionInfo"].GetCurrentUser();   if (selectedExperience.rows[0].hasChildren) {    //Example experience name:

I have simple create Thing service that works fine when I test it in Thingworx. But when trigered via postman it returns error: "TypeError: Cannot call method "CreateThing" of null" Permissions seem not to be the problem. Im guessing its something simple but im stumped. If anyone has an idea it would be greatly appreciated.   Service code:   var nameThing="TestThing";try{params = {name: nameThing,description: "This Is A New Thing",thingTemplateName: "GenericThing",projectName:'PMI Demo',};Resources["EntityServices"].CreateThing(params);Things[nameThing].EnableThing();Things[nameThing].RestartThing();result="Ok";}catch (err) {result="Not Ok";}

I'm trying to install Foundation 9.1 trial, with no success. I have checked the Java version,it's OK. The installer goes on untill step 3, without problem. I can even see the installer creates the folders for the program, but then I receive a message error, telling that the installation failed, and the application will exit. And all the new folders disappear.  

We are working on configuring SSO for our ThingWorx 9.0 deployment and are following the steps in the online documentation.  I've successfully configured SSO for earlier versions of ThingWorx (8.x), but I've never quite understood what is going on in this step, "Create the symmetric Folder": https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/platform/r9/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx%2FHelp%2FComposer%2FSecurity%2FSSO%2FCreateSymmetricFolder.html%23    - Is this "metafile" we create in the ssoSecurityConfig directory supposed to have a specific name?  - Are we supposed to use the "Keyczar" tool to do something?   - Does the 'keyczarKeyFolderPath' parameter in 'sso-settings.json' need to be set to the directory (...\ssoSecurityConfig\symmetric) or is it supposed to be set to the actual "metafile" (...\symmetric\mymeta.file)?- Should I worry about this step if we're not using OAuth tokens?   The steps aren't entirely clear. Thanks
