Hello,

i have thing template with a property of type THINGNAME.

i'm writing a service and in there i need to get a list of all thing that implement that template and have a certain thingname as that property.

How can i do that?

I assume can somehow call the getImplementedThings service and compare the property each element. If that is the easiest solution, how do i call that service?

If you want just get the name of the things is easier than you think, but I don't know if is that what you want.

What do you want to do with this thingname property?

The service GetImplementingThingsWithData() doesn't suit you?  You will iterate all the things and properties.

You can call the service on the template:

ThingTemplates["BlaTemplate"].GetImplementingThings();

// loop each element

But if I understand your problem correctly the only thing you need is:

result = me.PropertyWithThingname;

You don't need to iterate through every element if you have the thingname.
