 Hello ,

We can read the csv file from the thingworx csv extension. Is there a possibility to read the excel having multiple tabs by specifying the sheet name or something..?  .

What is the best way to read excel with multiple tabs.

 

Thanks!!

DPM is the new Digital Performance Management solution PTC has released.

ThingWorx Applications is actually a set of apps RTPPM (Real Time Production Performance Management), AMU (Asset Monitoring and Utilization) and CWC (Connected Work Cell) also a solution PTC has released

It isn't in the manufacturing apps which you are referring to

It can be done with the proper java extension but I don't think one is officially available?

I think if you install something like ThingWorx Apps or DPM they have an extension included to read Excel files.

I think Manufacturing apps only does CSV not excel.

Hello @sbt - Although it requires Excel Online (ie: Office 365 online version), ThingWorx Flow has a connector which allows triggering workflows off of and integrating through Excel files.
