  10. Environments • Development Environment • Windchill users have to exist in Thingworx in development environments (wt.auth.trustedHosts ) • Production Environment • SSL • Single Sign On

  11. Ways to communicate to Windchill in Thingworx • RESTful End Point • Infoengine / SOAP based Webservices

  12. Accessing Out of the box Restful Services via Swagger • Enable Site Preference -> Client Customization set to yes.

  13. Example of Out of the Box Restful Web Service • Access and Test it via Swagger UI. ( Enable Customization in the Site -> Preferences) • Create a service in ptc-Windchill-Demo-Thing which will be calling Rest Endpoint in Windchill. • Once service is tested. We create Mashup to visualize the content.

  17. Visualizing in Mashup

  18. Writing your Own RESTful Web Service • PTC does not support adding your own RESTful web service in Windchill • Deployment Requirements • Java Class file deployment • Site.xconf changes • Why Rest? • Modern architecture. Built using server side Windchill Java API • Easy to debug and maintain • Payloads are JSON that are easy to parse in web clients • One Web Service can provide various resources vs several infoEngine calls to fetch the same information Windchill JAVA WebService Resource ( RESTEasy Framework) Register RESTFulWebservice resource in Rest.properties REST Endpoint Available in Windchill Swagger Thingworx Call REST Endpoints in Thingworx using ProcessJSONRequest service of Windchill Connector
