This YouTube video about submitting a FHIR transaction bundle impressed me. It shows me two things:

1. how a new resource (in the video, the Observation) referencing another new resource (the Patient) in the same bundle can be done, given that their link-up will be sorted out in the repository and reflected in the subsequent retrieval through a HTTP GET; and
2. how a conditional create with the PUT method may be achieved, in case we cannot tell if such a resource (e.g. the Patient with an identifier) to be submitted may or may not exist.

Hi Developers!

I recently created a new foundation namespace in my IRIS for Health instance.  I am noticing that Registry entries such as the Service and XUA registries (HS.Registry.Service.SOAP and HS.IHE.XUA.Config) from my previously created foundation namespace are not available in my new namespace.  Is there a setting that controls this, or is there a way to map these registry values to my new namespace?  Other developers I talked with on my team expected these registry entries available to all namespaces and were surprised when I reported they were not.  

Hey Community,

Hi,

I am using the container image 2023.1 and am hitting a max total db size error.  However, this post indicates that the issue should have been resolved in Community edition 2019.3

Hello InterSystems Community Members,

I hope you are all doing well. I am currently facing an issue while trying to set up the SNMP subagent functionality for my InterSystems Cache installation.

I am using InterSystems Cache for Windows (AMD64) version 5.2.4 (Build 809_0_9006U). The SNMP subagent functionality requires the iscsnmp.dll dynamic library, which I have been unable to locate in my installation directory.

I have checked my installation directory thoroughly, typically located at C:\InterSystems\Cache, and its subdirectories, but I couldn't find the iscsnmp.dll file.

As the iscsnmp.

For several years now Visual Studio Code has supported the notebook coding paradigm with a maturing UX and an API that is enabling a notebook extensions ecosystem to grow. One of the best-known notebook platforms is Jupyter Notebooks. A Microsoft team publishes an extension that allows VS Code to handle .ipynb notebook files. These can either work against a local Python environment or connect to a Jupyter Server, which typically hosts remote Python environments with beefier resources.

What if your InterSystems IRIS environments, whether local on your workstation or remote in your organization / cloud, could operate as Jupyter Servers? And not only for Embedded Python but also for ObjectScript and SQL

"If we build it, will they come?"

Have you ever thought of creating your own systems for editing users or, perhaps, even an API that you can call? Today, you’re going to join me in the %SYS namespace and get to know Security.Users! 

This class has forty properties, many of which you’ve seen before in the System Management Portal. There are class methods for manipulating most of those properties. Every method in this class is a class method, and in most of them, the username is passed as an argument. These methods can be used when you do not want to open and directly manipulate the user’s objects, which is a bad idea anyway!

Hello,

I am facing an issue where i am not able to start the Healtshare environment.

I am very new to IRIS. We are developing a PHP application that connects to an IRIS instance of one of our vendors. This works well most of the time, but when I query a table to get data from particular fields that contain long text strings, it returns `NULL`. These fields are all `VARCHAR(30000)`.

I tried using the `$extract` functionality in the IRIS documentation, but that made no difference. I also tried setting the PHP setting `odbc.defaultlrl` to both 31K and 0. Neither resolved the issue.

From time to time InterSystems must respin a release to correct 1-2 issues. This process generates new kits called "Point Releases".

A Point Release is distinct from maintenance or feature releases.  Its objective is to correct an urgent issue in the field quickly and surgically.

Hi Guys,

I've an fileupload and button that executes   Upload() clientmethod to upload files in my database and everything works fine when I run the application in the server where it is located, but if I run it from a client machine the %OnSubmit class method doesn't get invoked when form.submit() get executed so how can I fix this?

I can always use <submit> button but the thing is that I need the current form to close after submitting the form but adding  &js<window.

It can be retrieved using the schema INFORMATION_SCHEMA.

INFORMATION_SCHEMA is a system schema and is not displayed by default in the SQL menu of the Management Portal.

The method to display it is as follows.

1. Open Management Portal → System Explorer → SQL menu.
2. Check "System" on the left of the schema drop-down.
3. Select INFORMATION_SCHEMA from the schema dropdown.

The SQL to get the ID, field name (COLUMN_NAME), data type (DATA_TYPE), description (DESCRIPTION) for the specified table (Sample.Human) is as follows.

Earlier today I enrolled at Cloud Services Portal and clicked "Start trial" for the "Health Connect Cloud" service. Next step was "Create Deployment". The only deployment size offered was "Micro", so I picked that, completed the other required details and clicked "Create".

Response was:

I reported this using the "Submit Feedback" option on the dropdown from my username in the top right of Cloud Services Portal but haven't yet received a response. Hence this DC post, in case someone here can tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Hi Guys,

I've a popup zen page to upload files using the input tag and submit button as below :

<html>
<input type="file" size="80" name="FileStream" class="button" id="fileUpload" />
</html>
<!--imageclickbutton id="btnUpload" caption="Upload" width="90" height="30" onclick="zenPage.

Still working on my first External REST API call, and I am struggling to find the exact answer I am looking for... I get a JSON response from my API call but I am not quite sure how to dynamically get the JSON response into the Ens.Response Object with its lists of Arrays that I have defined.

  set tSC = ..Adapter.SendFormDataArray(.tHTTPResposne,"POST",tHTTPRequest,,,tURL)

  set pResponse = ##class(User.REST.Epic.Msg.GetPatientLocationResponse).%New()

  set dynObject = {}.%FromJSON(tHTTPResposne.Data)

  set iter = dynObject.%GetIterator()

  while iter.%GetNext(.

Hi everyone,

I have a question related to a strange issue I've been experiencing over the last few days.

Context

I'm attempting to create an automatic resending system that, if no reply is received from the server, raises an error and re-sends the message. This process continues for the a duration defined by the FailureTimeout (e.g., 20 seconds), and a new message is being sent every 5 seconds until the FailureTimeout is reached. If no response was obtained from the server, the system returns an error.

My cluster status is as follows:

when I do journal restore on primary, it says journal restore is not allowed. The DR is also not allowed to do journal restore.

Currently, the SQL privileges (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) are managed at the tables level, which can be very tedious when you have to administer many roles in an organization, and need to keep them sync with a constantly evolving data models.
By managing privileges at the schemas level, will allow to give SELECT and other DML privileges to *all* or *several schemas* to a role|user, fixing the need to manually synchronize the new tables|views to the roles.

If you agree, I invite you to vote for this idea.

Hello everyone!
I need to build something that will receive a REST request. As of now I have tried my luck with using an EnsLib.HTTP.InboundAdapter. But i am not so sure how I am supposed to configure it to be able to receive the REST request together with the JSON body.
I have specified the OnProcessInput in the adapter so that it receives a GlobalCharacterStream. However, I have not had any good luck finding out to actually make the request to the EnsLib.HTTP.InboundAdapter. 
I would be really thankful if you could let me know if it is possible for an EnsLib.HTTP.

I usually receive complains from our customers about the BPL and DTL web pages automatic refreshes, it's a common problem among newbies users but for veteran developers too, they forget to save the changes regularly and automatically the web page is reloaded, losing all the work done.

Maybe an autosave would fix this problem that produces a deep feeling of hate and resentment against InterSystems technology among our customers. I've added an idea in our portal, so feel free to vote it!

Suppose I have a PDF and I need to convert it to an IMAGE (it can be a JPG or PNG)

Does anyone have an idea?

We often get questions about recent and upcoming changes to the list of platforms and frameworks that are supported by the InterSystems IRIS data platform.  This update aims to share recent changes as well as our best current knowledge on upcoming changes, but predicting the future is tricky business and this shouldn’t be considered a committed roadmap. 

With that said, on to the update…

IRIS Production Operating Systems and CPU Architectures

Red Hat Enterprise Linux

• Recent Changes
  
  • RHEL 9.2 & RHEL 8.8 were released in May, 2023. Red Hat is planning to support these releases for 4 years.

I have a VS Code workspace using server-side editing with separate folders for different namespaces on the instance:

{
	"folders": [
		{
			"name": "SYS",
			"uri": "isfs://server:%SYS/"
		},
		{
			"name": "cls",
			"uri": "isfs://server:USER/?filter=*.cls"
		}
	]
}

The VS Code search works well to find symbols in ObjectScript files, but it searches across all folders. Is there a way to include or exclude certain folders from the search? I've tried adding some patterns to the "files to exclude" dialog, but none of these seem to work: SYS/**, /SYS/**, %.*, \%.*

In today's landscape, enterprises have grown substantially in scale, amassing vast amounts of data. This data is collected from a plethora of sources including different applications, databases, and other channels. Given the diversity and volume of this data, it's only logical for these enterprises to seek a deeper understanding of what their data entails. Some of the data can be stored in IRIS, and it can be reasonable to be able to add this data to a data lake too.

The Internet now offers many different tools for such tasks, that do not yet support IRIS, but it's achievable.
