In Thingworx :

  • Open ptc-windchill-integration-connector and select Configuration
    • Set Authentication Type to None
    • Fill out Username and Password
    • Fill the Base URL with: http://<Windchill Hostname>:<port>/Windchill/trustedAuth (instead of sslClientAuth)
    • Click Save.
  • Open ptc-windchill-integration-connector-proxy and select Configuration             
    • URL: http://<Windchill Hostname>
    • Set Authentication Type to basic
    • Fill out Username, Password
    • Do not specify path for Keystore and TrustStore
    • (Starting Navigate 1.8) : Set "Test Connection URL"=http://<SERVER_NAME>/Windchill/servlet/WindchillAuthGW/wt.httpgw.HTTPServer/echo

(Starting Navigate 1.8) : Set "Test Connection URL"=http://<SERVER_NAME>/Windchill/servlet/WindchillAuthGW/wt.httpgw.HTTPServer/echo

While saving ptc-windchill-integration-connector-proxy, it invokes ValidateConnection service of ptc-windchill-integration-connector. Please modify ptc-windchill-integration-connector firstly and make sure ValidateConnection service could execute successfully.

Also, make sure to enable the Dynamic Content check box.
