I want to create a WTDocument in Windchill which may also contain primary content from ThingWorx (by creating a form in Mashup). I'm new to Thingworx and want to know the steps to do so.

Hi @OP_11714882,

 

In ThingWorx, there are 2 ways you can call Windchill REST API.

First is to create a Thing Service and use ContentLoaderFunctions.

Refer to articles: 

https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/cs237875

https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS380751

 

Second is to use Integration Connector > ODataConnector

Refer to ThingWorx Help Center

 

As for which Windchill API to use to create WTDocument, I found below articles, but if you have any further questions, you need to ask in PLM community board or open a Windchill support case for help.

Hope that helps.
