ThingWorx - Version 7.0 Release Notes

The following enhancements and bug fixes have been made in ThingWorx 7.0:

Enhancements

Platform

  • Platform-settings.json now contains all persistence provider configuration options that were previously located in modelproviderconfig.json. See Platform Settings for more information.
  • Added the directories parameter to the CreateZipArchive service that allows a set of multiple directories or directory to be zipped. This can be useful for exporting data from a file repository that needs to be zipped before downloading.

Code line : "FileRepositoryRoot":"/Volumes/ShareFolder"

Kindly share the windows scripts of PlatformSettingsConfig for the same.
