OPC Aggregator: no more than one Thing?

Hello,   I successfully connected my OPC Aggregator (1.4.66) to Thingworx (8.5.0-b12). I made an Industrial Thing that can be used. Unfortunately, when I try to copy a property in order to have it with another name, The property is not connected, despite of the fact that the path / tag name did not change. When I try to create another thing (from the industrial connection using the discover page), the thing shows me that it is connected but the properties are not connected. Does somebody know why?   I get the following error:  nable to dispatch [ uri = /Things/OPC Aggregator-GW2/Services/BulkLog/]: Entity OPC Aggregator-GW2 does not exist or is not yet associated with a Thingerror executing APIRequest Message: Entity OPC Aggregator-GW2 does not exist or is not yet associated with a Thing, sending ERROR ResponseMessage to caller!   Guillaume

SSO Provisioning Exclusions

We have ThingWorx 8.4.0 and the Manufacturing Apps.  We are also using SSO to log in our users.  Provisioning is set up to provide the email address from our identity provider (IDP).  The Apps require users to have a phone number included.  I've manually added phone numbers for a few users, but it seems that every time a user logs in, their phone number is deleted.  I'm guessing this is because we aren't provisioning it through SSO.   Is there a way to set exclusions for the SSO attribute provisioning?

Is there any service available to re-arrange network elements of Thingworx network

Hi,   I'm using Thingworx 8.4, I have created a network structure now I would like to re-arrange network elements through a Mashup. is there any service/snippet available to change parent of network element in the Network Hierarchy?   Is it possible to utilize Thingworx available feature(Attaching Screenshot)?   (The network entity has a mashup( Network Hierarchy) where we can drag and drop network elements in the structure/Hierarchy, is there any possibility to duplicate or reuse this functionality in my mashup).

Load entities and install extensions on startup

Hello All,   I don't remember -- was there a way to load some custom entities and/or install extensions as part of ThingWorx initialization? Similar to how it fills the database with things like SystemRepository the first time it starts.   Thanks, Constantine

Thingworx Tomcat CPU usage 100%

Hi , My thingworx server(deployed in a virutal machine) beomce very slow suddenly today (it has running for months smoothly) .  Whatever action you made in the thingworx composer, will cause the cpu usage up to 100% and it's occupied by the tomcat process, the memory usage is 65%, that's fine.      Meanwhile,  in the Monitor->connected users , I notice there're more than 100 Administrator users.  I didn't notice how many Administrators list there , but I'm sure only one Administrator connected when the cpu is 100%. (please check the attached picture).  I've tried to terminate the other connected Administrator, but they appear again constantly.    I've tried to restart the tomcat and the VM , but it doesn't help.  Any idea about it ?  ===Versions=== Thingworx 8.4.4 + Postgresql 10.x + Windows server 2016 ========tomcat config====== -Dserver -Dd64-XX:+UseG1GC-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8-Djava.library.path=C:\Tomcat 9.0\webapps\Thingworx\

Universal Converter

I am trying to convert some XML into an infotable.  As is commonly the case, the extension is provided without documentation or an example or... anything.  So the ConvertXML function.  How do you use the parameters?  What's the rowsPath for?  I made a datashape for it.  About the fieldMap  is that an XPath?  How do you make a path that will draw data?  No XPath I can think of works.

Is there any REAL documentation on Dashboards functionalities & configuration?

Hi, I have several years of experience with TWX but never really used Dashboards.   As I started now to explore this functionality I realized that I couldn't find any proper documentation from PTC (apart from the Help section, which is definitely not enough).    Also, I've seen some threads on this Forum where people just copy/paste the TWX help text, which also doesn't help, so please don't refer to that.   I got the all basics covered (create dashboard, create gadget, create a gadget library, add gadget to dashboard, etc.) what I am really looking for is the next level of configuration where I could do more complex things with it.   Is anyone aware of an official documentation file/ manual? If there's any...   Looking forward to a reply. Thanks & Regards,Rafael

How to use the breadcrumb widget

I am trying to use a breadcrumb widget to help navigate through selections on my mashup. The widget is not working the way I think it should based on the information here: http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Mashup_Builder/Widgets/BreadcrumbWidgetThemable.html   I have looked in the community, Thingworx developers guide, PTC support and I cannot find any documentation or guides on how to actually use the breadcrumb widget. Can anyone provide a guide on how to use the breadcrumb widget or an example set of entites I can import and see how the bindings and input data are setup?

Using the C SDK to read String Properties from thingworx

Hi everyone,   I am trying to use the C SDK to get the thingname from the Generic thing property. The problem I am having is that my C SDK application connects using an identifier so I can bind it to different things on thingworx so that I do not have to re-build my program. I want to use the Thingname that my application has binded to in my code.   When I use the TW_GET_STRING_PROPERTY like this it returns null. printf("The Name of the thing is%s\n", TW_GET_STRING_PROPERTY(thingName,"name"));     Can anyone please give advice on how I can get the thingName that my application is bound to thanks.

Each time i try to create user for application , i always face a lot of bugs like: entity not found , you have no permission to execute event ... I alwayd verify all permissions and i get the same blocking points so my question is;   Is there one propre way to create a user for a project, this user can do what he want only in this project (Full rights in runtime and design time + Visibility ) Steps:   1- I created Organisation 2- Created two groups (Admins groups and simple users groups), each group contain a user . 3- I add right access to the two groups (Visibility, design Time , Run time) to all entities (mashup, Things, Thing template, Thing shape ...). 4- Authantificate with the admin user created for the application 5 - Errors : Not Authorized to edit entity subcription script  I can add this entity to Permissions -> Collections .. and give the edit right  to
