ThingWorx

Hi,   when I lock out a user in the Composer, this user becomes unlocked after the "Minutes Locked Out" setting in the UserManagement Subsystem.   Is there a way to prevent a specific user (not all users) from being unlocked or to somehow permanently lock out a user?

Hello,   I have an error when installing the ThingWorx Trial Edition 8.2. (In attachment, the logs files.) Previously, I have installed Docker with no problem.   Thanks for your help.   Julien

What is the best approach to populate the data table with demo data as part of extension deployment? Any examples would be appreciated.Thanks.

I want to add a custom CSS to my mashup. I tried to follow this document: https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Mashup_Builder/Mashups/CustomCSSTutorial.html But this does not work because I cannot see a "CustomCSS" tab. I want to write a small css code just to rotate the mashup 90 deg. Code should be =  transform: {rotate(90deg);} but I donot know where to write it in the composer.   Thank you

I want to create a data table which will have  ThingTemplateName and ThingTemplatePropertyName columns as Primary key with extra few columns like: Score, Scale, Rate etc. I would like to provide extra aspects to each property in ThingTemplate since we are limited to built-in aspects/characteristics of a property (like: name, description, baseType, pushType etc). I will have a mashup where an admin can add extra metadata information about properties and I need to syncronize this DataTable with changes to ThingTemplates's properties.   I will initially start creating a ThingTemplate with x number of properties. I will then press Save. I want a service to intercept that save action and call a service that will fill out DataTable with ThingTemplate name and a property name. So I will have x number of rows in DataTable like:   ThingTemplateName, ThingTemplatePropertyName, Score, Scale, Rate etc. ----------------------------|----------------------------------------|-

Hi all,I'm desperately trying to understand best practices for creating the platform described below. I can't find an answer for whether to use remote or internal DB, a Thing-centered data structure or traditional tables and whether to develop the front-end on mashups or on an external server with API to ThingWorx.What we're trying to do is:IoT data stream is uploaded at a rate of 10 rows/sec from up to 20 devices simultaneously. we expect 10M rows a year. Would it require an external DB?This data is never displayed raw, but rather is used to calculate additional, much smaller tables, that are the source of our charts. I was told a non-relational DB is the best solution for this kind of data handling (Mongo, Google Firebase etc.) but I didn't manage to understand their compatibility with ThingWorx.We are developing consumer-grade front-end, customizing almost every component. Would't it be easier to develop and run it on an external server and just get the data from ThingWorx through i

In this video we review the different features available in Grid Advanced Extension version 2.0

I need to select row and move between rows in a grid by keyboard up/down key. Once a selected row changes, another attribute table refreshes based on the selected row data. It all works if selected by mouse. However we want to move the row by using keyboard up/down key as well to achieve the same. Tried both grid and dynamiccolumn grid and both of them not working

I want to perform a calculation using entries in the data table when something changed in that row and set that calculated value in another column of the same row. To avoid infinite loop, I want to execute my logic only when a specific property is changed. I was trying to use sourceProperty to determine the column changed. Unfortunately it was blank always. Is it a bug? or Am I doing something wrong?   Thanks in  advance.

I'm trying to create a service that I can globally put in a ThingShape; then reference inside every new DataTable that I create. This service will find the PK of each new data table and ensure that it is populated with a unique/increasing value. To do this, I need to be able to find the current MAX() value of all data in the data table for the PK field; then set new row PK field to MAX()+1.If I'm simply way out in left field...please reign me in, but I think I'm close.Please provide a sample script for how to query this information from an existing data table.

Hi All,   what's the difference between MSSqlServer template and Database template?I mean...can I use both for a SQL Server connection? Is it possible?In my case, I want to know specificaly if I can connect with Database template.Thanks,A.

I have been trying to use addDynamicSubscription(), I understand its non-persistent in-memory operation and it takes a service name as input. After checking the logs I came to know that the service execution failed somewhere and the service was never called.It would be really helpful if someone could explain the basic working flow of addDynamicSubscription(), just to make sure I am not missing something here.Thanks,Chaitanya

I am attempting to make OAuth Request/Response calls using PostText (need to send content) but am unable to get a valid authentication.  There is the username and password parameters, but these don't seem to be translating into the needed format.I need my user authentication to be passed in the format of "username:password" and have tried various combinations with the parameter fields.  As an example, using this with curl, I would pass the authentication as part of the -u parameter as "username:password"Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Hey everyone!I am currently working on a mashup in which I have to list-widgets as shown below.The first list-widget has two elements, for example: Ferrari and PorscheDepending on which element is selected, the second list-widget should be filled with a pre-defined list of either Ferrari-car-tag or porsche-car-tags.It is like a filter mechanism.Is this even realizable and how?Thank you as always for your help Best regards,Theresa

I have a property for a Thing "WeatherRover" which has a property "Speed". While creating "Speed" property, i mentioned following BaseType info,Base Type: NumberUnits: km/hrMin Value: 0Max Value: 20Now I want to use this Base Type info on the mashup i.e. Units, Min Value and Max Value. How to get this BaseType information provided for each property? I tried using "GetPropertyDefinition" Service, but it doesn't gives all the info needed.I also tried with other services like GetPropertyDefinitions, GetPropertyValues, GetPropertyLogging but none of them giving me the information I am looking for. Any help around it would be appreciated.Thanks,Ketan

Hi guys,I have problem with parsing the XML get response.I have tried every approach which I could find. (here or anywhere else).It drives me crazy because it is a very simple XML. Here it is.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LL control="dev/sps/io/Power/state" value="5.07kW" Code="200"/>I am getting the result with GetXML (LoadXML works the same), but when I am trying parse the Value out of it, it always returns empty (as none). I am accessing the value with resultXml.LL.@value. (.@code, .@control -- all empty). I have tried to iterate and push the results  into the array - nothing. XML is not using namespaces. If I use warn.log it is also empty. I have tried different Base types. Nothing. Strange is that if I set the result to XML and use var result = Resources[]..... I can see the result while running service through the REST API, but if I try logger.warn(xmlResult) it is also blank.

Hi All,I want to know how to create a combined chart (bar + line).Any tips?Regards,A.

  I have a template with field like "Deflector" of NUMERIC type (and other properties not show in above image). I would like to create a JavaScript service that will based on template name return a collection of JSON objects containing all property information that can be seen in the image.  I want to build agent with a VirtualThing implementation that will be based on this JSON configuration that can be retrieved from the TW JS service. In addition I would like to add "custom aspects" like: System, Group and Model that can be associated with each property (Can I use some kind of linked DataTable that I need to maintain using a custom mashup where I would show property names in one column, hide ThingTemplate name (which will point to TT name) and add DataShape columns: System, Group and Model). Can this be achieved differently?   [{....}, {....},{ "Name": "Deflector", "Description": "Deflector", "Category": "Overview", "BaseType": "NUMBER", "Uni
