Question

Extension SDK : Create a Thread and access other entity from it.

Hi,

I'm developing a Thingworx extension package using the extension SDK,

And I got an exception sort of 'not authorized', 'no permission' related with the SecurityContext in the SDK

when I created a thread and tried to write properties or get entity using it's name from the thread. (not the main thread of Extension).

To access the thingworx entity from the user created thread is not allowed? Or is there any way to get a permission to access?

As I mentioned in your other post, security privileges are tracked using ThreadLocal storage in the ThreadLocalContext class.  If you create a new thread, you will need to set up the proper security context using this class, otherwise Thingworx will not allow you to access any entities.
