Hi All,

I  follow this guide(https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/connect-kepware-server-thingworx-guide/bind-industrial-tag) to step 4 

In step 4, I found that the Industrial Thing I created was not connected to Kepware Server.

According to the Guide, I have set the Base Thing Template and Implement Shape of Industrial Thing

The thing used to connect Thingworx and Kepware server is also successfully connected.  I want to know why I operated completely according to the guide, but the industrial thing shows no connection. How should I solve this problem?

Thanks for your answer, I already know why it went wrong. When I created the Application Key, I did not use Administrator as the User Name Reference. I created a new User but did not assign permissions to it, so the  new things I created cannot connect normally.

Got to your Thing IndConn_Tag1 -> Properties. In the properties search for IndustrialThing, set the value of this property as IndConn_Server. It should connect after this.
