@vi1 : As of now connecting Thingworx to Azure data lake is not supported officially. However, there is a flow connector which can be used ThingWorx Azure Data Lake Connector (https://github.com/PTCInc/TwxAzureDataLakeConnector)  for this purpose.

Please note that this is not supported officially by PTC. It means you can use this but PTC does not guarantee and support to functionality of  Azure datalake flow connector.

Hello,

 

Thank you for response.

 

How to access Azure Data lake storage data into Thingworx platform? Is there any other options?

We can access SQL data and Postgre SQL data. Also, we can access Blob storage data using Thingworx IoT Hub connectors.
