Windchill Navigate

We have Thingworx Navigate platform where we have deployed 5 apps. We are using Windchill authentication for logging into Thingworx platform. There are two apps which requires manual access and rest of the apps are available for all the users.We are facing issue when user tries to login with different combinations of uppercase and lower case letters which in turns create 5 different username in Thingworx platform. Windchill does not have this issue. What are the ways we can prevent these situation.

I might not be doing things proper but trying to learn and do an upgrade in place (kind of) of Navigate while upgrading Windchill. Goal is to get to 9.7 and WC 13.0.2.  I have a clone on my test Navigate system and my upgrade target Windchill at 13.02. DB is SQLServer if that matters for Navigate. Thingworx appears to function and I can authenticate (which is to Windchill). I can see main page and Composer. I made sure all of the Odata connectors, integration connectors and proxy connectors map to the new temp hostname (-upgrade for my rehearsal 1). At the current time, I have not upgraded Navigate since I wanted to validate its functioning properly first. I have some custom apps which their own Odata connections and they seem to function fine. Its just the OOTB navigate apps that do not work. If it just as simple a running upgrade to bring it to 9.7 which would be supported with 13.02,  I can do that but its a one way street. If something else was wrong or it should work as

Hello Devs, I'm new to Navigate and have created a custom task where I need the search to return only the latest released objects. However, it's currently fetching multiple released versions as well as objects in the Production Rework state.As it's a custom task, I can't control the search using a saved search.I tried using the following navigation criteria, but it didn’t work:State eq 'Released'Do I need to use a different navigation criteria, or is there an issue with this one? Could you provide a sample criteria to achieve the desired result?Thank you in advance.

Curious if anyone knows this. I will be moving to WC 13.0.2 and Navigate 9.7. I know my current system, that the current default Navigate apps use Legacy RESTEasy webservices. (right?) https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS359200?source=Bloop In the new versions, will that change over to OData? Have they been overhauled?

Noticed this folder at my site level: I am assuming that this get purged and cleanup at some point. Does anyone know what process, queue or service handles that? What is the frequency? Gives you some insight to the sausage making to that app. Seems like what it does is gathers the content, creates a zip and stores that in a WTDocument at the site level. Then the download link gets that content.

Hi,  Is there any custom API or way to publish the required cad files to get the additional representation from thingworx. If any please help me to achieve this. Thanks in advance.

We have a requirement to extract the part structure from a PVZ file. While we are currently able to display it using the ThingView widget, the goal is to extract the part structure from the PVZ file and present it in a tree grid.Additionally, upon selecting a part in the grid, the corresponding part should be highlighted in the 3D view. I would like to understand:Is this functionality achievable in ThingWorx?Is there a way to read the PVZ file and extract its structure?Can this be accomplished using any existing extensions or OOTB (Out-Of-The-Box) functions, or will we need to develop custom extensions? Thanks in advance!

We have been following the PTC article CS332905 to create a ThingWorx mashup. However, we have encountered some challenges midway through the process and are unable to proceed further.

Hello, We have configured Navigate using Windchill-based authentication. However, the customer is now changing the ThingWorx and Windchill server URLs. Other than below pointers, anything else need to take care? Add the new ThingWorx URL to the allowlist on the Windchill side.Update the Windchill URL in all integration connectors and configurations. Thank you in Advance. -Abhiram  

Hi,   Is there any REST API in Windchill that can be used in Thingworx Navigate to remove a user from License Groups?   Thanks.

Planning a system upgrade with Windchill 12 to 13 as well. Looking to see who has been down this road ahead of me and to share feedback. Specifically these questions: 1. Will Navigate 9.6 work with Windchill 12.0.2 CPS8? Or will it fail since CPS is not current? If it does work, it would be great since I do not need to upgrade both at the same time. 2. Does upgrade in place alter or update the database? Just need to know in rehearsals if DB has to be reset as well.  3. Will any custom apps be an issue? I have a few in there. Just checking if there are any special concerns here.

Hi, When clicking "Report a Problem," a popup window displays "Something went wrong. The task you are trying to reach is not available at the moment. Please get in touch with your administrator."   https://www.ptc.com/pt/support/article/cs351650 This Article is old, and Thingworx Flow is no longer used in Thingworx Navigate 9.6 Installation.   Thanks,

Hi,   I have a Tasks Tile on the Navigate Landing  Page... But, what configuration needs to be done to show the Problem Report Tasks?   Thanks,

Hi,   On Thingworx Navigate, I want to Change the Landing Page's pointer to a custom-made Landing Page. Is there a way to do this, or do I need to duplicate all the Mashups and override the service??   Thingowrx & Navigate Version: 9.6.0   Thanks,

Hello, With ThingWorx Navigate 9.6.1, is it necessary to create a separate keystore and truststore, or can we use the ones already created for Tomcat? Thank you in advance!

Reading through this article: How to create an admin user in ThingWorx Navigate when there is no Administrator user in Windchill  In my case, I already had configured to authenticate to Windchill and one of my accounts had an alternate uid of Administrator. Login was fine, no issues. I am switching to SSO on Windchill side so my assumption would be I need a matching id of Administrator which I am hesitant to do. I have added two additional accounts to the Administrators group in Thingworx so I can use those to get into Composer and administer the system. The question is, if I make Administrator in able to be used, will I lose anything or not be able to do functions in Composer? If I need to, I could reconfigure authentication back to get back in but I prefer not to use this account if I do not have to.
