Windchill Customization

I've seen the Knowledge Hub on Security Labels and this page which allude to how to display the label on a details page. https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/cs31877?language=en&posno=1&q=info.jsp%20security%20label&source=search That may have worked from 9.1 but I think things have long since changed since then.  Tables and Security Label history is covered as well as watermarks. Looks great. How then can they be added to Details page? BAE showed a data utility customization back in 2015: https://community.ptc.com/t5/PTC-Community-Networking/Security-Label-Information-Needs-To-Be-Obvious-And-We-Need-A/m-p/451702#M765 Has anything been improved in newer versions (11 or 12)?

Hi, we have implemented a custom Odata Rest Endpoint. I want to return http status code 201 Created when an object is created and the status code 200 when an object is updated via post request. I couldn't achieve it by setting the boolean variable setCreated on the ActionResult that is returned. Does anybody have an idea? Thanks in advance.

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://[URL]/Windchill/servlet/odata/v4/QMS/Quality. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing). Status code: 401 That's the exception I get for making calls from Chrome or Firefox. Using postman the call works fine but chrome and firefox do a prefetch request using an OPTIONS header and it seems like Windchill isn't responding properly to that request. By default options shouldn't have an authentication header and Windchill shouldn't require one. But it seems Windchill is requiring it.I've updated the web.xml file inside Windchill/codebase/WEB-INF/web.xml with the following but Im not sure if any of my changes are being reflected. :     <filter> <filter-name>ContentCorsOptionsFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.catalina.filters.CorsFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>cors.allowed

Is there anyway to pull the latest assignment from a user on a particular assignment using java? Currently, I'm working on a report that displays the votes of each user that has been assigned an assignment. However, when it get's re-subrouted, the code I have currently does not know which vote was the latest so it will display "old" votes. I'm currently working on code that attempts to find the latest timestamp of an assignment's creation and use it but even that's becoming messy.

HI All   I had gone through the Article and set the required parameters for the email notification.but still its not working. 1. set parameter on the workflow side2. set parameter on the Windchill. Regards,Manjunath

I wanted to share this as another method of sending emails. This option has you turning off send notification on a workflow task, mine is called "CCB Review". In a workflow expression, I call out my helper class and method like so:   customization.workflow.MyWorkflowProcessHelper.sendNotifications((wt.workflow.engine.WfProcess)self.getObject(),"CCB Review");   This looks up all workitems that match that task name and creates its own email. They key here is the bolded lines in "createNotification". Here is where you can change the template processor AND the html template. I for other reasons chose not to but this opens up the possibility of completely customizing what users see in their email boxes.  Hope this helps someone.   /*** Fires notifications for an Assigned Activity where notification is turned off in the template.* This allows modification of the activity before the emails are sent.* @param process, reference to the current workflow process* @param activit

Hello to all,I am using Windchill 11.2.1.2 with Creo Modeling 20.3.2.0 (via wgm 11.2.1.7) and Creo Parametric 7.0.5.0.In both cases I am experiencing a notable slowness, both of the WGM and of Windchill within Creo, of the Workspace update.Example:When I modify a WT part or a Cad Document (the check-out is already done), by changing a simple attribute and saving, the workspace remains to update itself for a few minutes.I did the test on multiple PCs and the result is the same.Even check-in operations with few components are very slow.From a browser, on the other hand, everything works correctly.Among other things, if I go to check in the browser, I find the change already made, while in the wgm the workspace page is still updating.Another thing: changing server and passing in the test environment (as you can see at the end of the attached video) the same operation is ok.What can it depend on?Do you have any ideas or experience on this?Matteo.
