While creating any entities, the project name & model tag name should be selected by default. How to enable this functionality?

Hi @AP_9587236

 

In the 9.x releases, project name is required, but model tag is optional, so there is no way within composer to do this.  However, you can create entities by wrapping the CreateThing service, CreateThingShape service, etc. with your own service to pass both the project name and tag as input parameters.  These Create services all exist within the EntityServices Resource.

Hi @AP_9587236

 

I recommend checking out our Developer Portal where you will find a number of guides and learning paths.  For example, here is one that will provide more information on data tables and other storage methods:

You can also find information in the ThingWorx Help Centers.

 

If you are interested in obtaining training options, please reach out to the Sales team.
