Hello,
We are starting with ThingWorx and we need to know what can be done with this software and how to do it. I would like to know more about the use of labels and label templates. I have tried to create and use it and I think it is useful to search and find entities in the composer. But I would like to know more about the use of tags in a runtime context. Do you have any examples of how the tags and model tags could be used in such a context? Could they be associated with a user/user groups...etc.

Thanks

Not sure if you went through the online classes

here is the help entry on tags

http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/en/#page/ThingWorx%2FHelp%2FComposer%2FTags%2FTags.html

Basically adding meta data to either a Thingworx entity or to Thingworx data

With that you can then do searches on those tags.

 

one other main use is Entity tagging for export since export supports grouping by tag although in more recent versions Projects was introduced.
