Any suggestions what the potential problems could be? What's a DPA target?

I cannot find the API service. I entered the Windchill server in the localhost section, but when I try to access it via http://localhost:80/Windchill/servlet/rest/v1/contexts  or Swagger, I get the following error: Failed to fetch. Possible Reasons: CORS Network Failure URL scheme must be "http" or "https" for CORS request. It also gives a 404 error. I need to connect to the API in order to use it for my middleware application and perform operations, but I'm having trouble connecting to the API. In fact, I don't have a proper API at hand.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.1.5안녕하세요. 썸네일이 사진처럼 나오는 이유를 알 수 있을까요? WVS 작업 모니터 확인 결과 이전에 썸네일 생성에 실패한 이력은 없었으며 해당 썸네일 클릭 시 '만료된 시각화 데이터'라고 뜹니다. 이 도면뿐 아니라 파트파일(어셈블리X)도 이런 문제가 생기는 것으로 보아 단순히 하위 파트 문제는 아닌 것으로 보이며, 서피스로 만들어진 형상도 아닙니다.(솔리드로 제작) 이런 현상의 원인이 무엇인지 알 수 있을까요? 답변 부탁드립니다. 감사합니다.

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: I have close to 1000 (Engineer to order) products, designs starting from 2006 up to today. Most products are built some are still active. Today I use a spreadsheet to indicate the number of CAD objects in each context, and what is the latest modification date. For each context separately, that requires a separate search and sorting to find the latest modified date. My goal is to decide for each context whether to purge unnecessary iterations and provide vaulting rules to move the physical files to a medium that doesn't need te be included in our backup every day.Description: How do I approach this issue in Windchill's Query Builder ? I can link EPMDocument and Context, but I don't find how to count the number of objects, or how to apply the maximum-function on the Modified date per context...

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: The "function validateComments" script contains a "document.getElementById("workitem_comment").value" expression.

Please can anybody shed more light on what an element is exactly and how I can query the IDs assigned to different elements that exist in Windchill?

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: Hello, I've reached the 10GB limitation on SQL Express and would like to know if I move the database to SQL Enterprise is there any documentation in terms of reconfiguring Windchill to point to the new SQL database?  I couldn't find any documentation related to my question.  When I initially setup Windchill I was advised by a PTC rep during the call to use SQL Express although I had SQL Enterprise already installed on the existing server that had other databases unrelated to Windchill.  I am just looking for any documents out there if I move the database to SQL enterprise and what will need to happen in order to reconfigure Windchill to the new SQL database location. Thanks so much.Description: When creating a new product picking any template getting the error message ATTENTION: A persistence error occurred. A persistence error occurred.  Contact your adminstrator.
