Question

Has anyone gotten the PDF Extension to work?

Hi.  I'm trying to use the PDF Extension by PTC downloaded from the ThingWorx Marketplace, but I keep getting the following error when I test the CreatePDF service from within the PDFExport Thing in Composer:

Error: invalid page URL input. The ServerAddress is: <mashup URL>

I get this error regardless of the mashup URL I plug into the "Server Address" input parameter.

Unfortunately this extension is not supported by ThingWorx and is provided in "as-is" condition, as stipulated in the information provide in the Marketplace.

Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, etc?

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff, I tested this out and it looks like it works over http - so if you have ThingWorx hosted on 8080 (or 80), try the same with this url - http://localhost:8080/Thingworx/Runtime/index.html#mashup=LogViewer

I think you can also use <server>/Thingworx/Mashups/NameOfMashup

Pai and Aanjan,

I'm still getting the same "invalid URL input" error whether I use "<server>/Thingworx/Mashups/NameOfMashup" or "<server>/Thingworx/Runtime/index.html#mashup=NameOfMashup".  One thing I didn't mention is that I'm not providing values for the "ThingWorxuser" and "ThingWorxPassword" input parameters when I run the service, because we use CAC authentication to connect to ThingWorx, instead of a userid/password.  Could this be the issue?

Thanks,

Jeff
