Updating ThingWorx AppKeys
Encryption Procedures Available
When you need a new ThingWorx AppKey, two types of procedures are available to update and encrypt the key:
Scripted encryption process – This procedure is available for ThingWorx Analytics version 8.4.4 or later. The encryption script automates most of the steps involved in updating encrypted keys. It eliminates the manual work of copying randomly generated Key Store directory and file names and plugging them into a complex Java encryption command. The encryption script is stored in the install bin directory and is launched with a simple command that requires two parameters.
Manual encryption process – This manual procedure is available to update and encrypt an AppKey for ThingWorx Analytics versions earlier than 8.4.4.
