Hey Community,

It's time for a fresh batch of #KeyQuestions from the 1st quarter of 2026 (January to March). Take a look at what has been stirring the discussion over the past three months. 

I created a table profile dashboard on Power BI, but I wonder if is possible to do it in Iris by creating a class.

Hey Community,

The READY 2026 agenda is taking shape, and we're thrilled to give you a first look at what's in store.

This year's event runs April 27–30 at the Maryland Convention Center, and the session roster is packed — more than 80 sessions spread across four days, designed to assist you in whatever you need, whether you're deep in the code or shaping your organization's technology strategy.

The tracks cover a broad range of topics this year:

Hi Community,

A big perk of attending InterSystems READY 2026 (April 27–30) is the chance to talk to our experts!

Hi folks,

One of the things I've been thinking about recently: how strong AI is changing my work as an ObjectScript developer right now! Yeah, yeah, I know I'm not a very fast, it should have happened 2-3 years ago... But it's only now that I've realized that I am not writing the code all my workday like before.

Hi Community,

An error occurs during the analysis process in the FHIR SQL Builder. How can I identify the exact cause of the error?

Hi folks!

Is there an easy setting, e.g., to merge.cpf so that it will disable the management portal on a deployed IRIS container?

The idea is to let only one of my particular web apps be available and everything else not even accessible on IRIS.

READY 2026 is almost here, and we’re really curious to hear what everyone is looking forward to this year 🚀

What are you most excited about? It could be a topic you want to explore, a question you’re hoping to get answered or something you’re simply curious about.

Share your thoughts below! We’d love to hear what’s on your mind and see what others are excited about too 💬

Feel free to read through the replies and like the ones you relate to! 😊

I need to translate these labels on the Whole Record page view:

Anyone knows how to do it?
Thanks

Motivation

Why do we need this?

1. Lack of Compiled Context: AI tools only see source code; they don't know what the final compiled routine looks like.

2. Macro Hallucination: Because AI doesn't see our #include files or system macros, it often makes them up, wasting time during debugging.

3. The Documentation Gap: Deep logic optimization often requires understanding internal macros that aren't fully covered in public documentation.

4. Manual Overhead: Currently, the only way to fix this is to manually use the IRIS VS Code extension to find the "truth" in the routine.

Hi Community,

What’s New in InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health 2026.1

InterSystems IRIS 2026.1 is here, and it’s packed with powerful enhancements designed to help organizations scale their data management like never before. Whether you’re dealing with the operational aspects of managing massive datasets or looking to optimize storage costs, this release brings a host of features to simplify life with your data and meet the growing challenges of very large datasets.

Hi everyone, This is me again🥲...

Today I want to share a sad story, which is my Deepsee Web is not working properly.😭

The story is like that. 

Initially, I have a dashboard on monitoring how much I spend on the sky (by time chart) and look like the following originally

Introduction

FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) is the modern standard for storing and exchanging clinical data. But once your data is in a FHIR server, how do you actually explore it? FHIR data is stored as JSON — powerful, but not practical to read directly. I wanted a tool where you could click on a patient, see their conditions, medications, lab results, and more — in a clean, readable format. So I built the FHIR Patient Viewer.

How It Works

The app runs entirely in Docker and connects directly to an InterSystems IRIS for Health FHIR server.

Hey Developers,

Thank you for being part of the InterSystems Developer Ecosystem! 
We truly appreciate your participation across the Developer Community, Open Exchange, Global Masters, and the Ideas Portal.

Each year we run a short survey to understand how we can improve our platforms and better support developers like you. Your feedback helps us shape the future of the ecosystem.

Please take a few minutes to complete the survey:

Note: The survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete.

Introduction — The Problem with AI Streaming in ObjectScript

Today, I would like to introduce a problem I encountered and the solution I found when integrating AI APIs into an ObjectScript application. My initial tests were successful, yet somewhat frustrating.

The HTTP call worked; the request was properly sent to my LLM APIs. But then, silence... a long wait. Eventually, the entire response arrived as a single block.

Technically, it worked, but the user experience was disappointing compared to a ChatGPT session.

Hi everyone,

I’ve configured an integration scenario in InterSystems IRIS with a Business Service exposed as a SOAP web service. Everything works correctly when the web application allows unauthenticated access.

However, when I switch the web application to require Basic Authentication, I’m unable to get it working properly. I have configured a resource and assigned it to both the web application and the user I’m using for the request, but I consistently get login failures (visible in the audit log).

i want to debug classmethod in vs code,bu it get error !

For example in %Library.File Class Documentation,  FiieSet query is listed as: 
"Selects Name As %String, Type As %String, Size As %BigInt, DateCreated As %TimeStamp, DateModified As %TimeStamp, ItemName As %Stringof ..."

How to obtain a "real" syntax?

Thank you.

Hello,

Looking for some additional help, maybe someone who has experience with this before, in setting up and configuring the Web Gateway with Kerberos.

Have read through the documentation (at the link below) and it's a good start but seems there are some details missing, or I'm not clear on. 

Questions: 

• Is there a external enterprise Kerberos server required, or is this set up contained within the local server?
• Is there a step-by-step instructions on what to do and configure to successfully complete this?
• Are there there config changes necessary for Apache?

Our Pharmacy team would like us to convert...

¼ test character and ½ test character and ¾ test character and

to more like 

1/4 test character and 1/2 test character and 3/4 test character and

Is this possible?

Hi Community!

We’re building a series of short, hands-on Instruqt tutorials to help newcomers get up to speed with InterSystems technologies faster and more effectively. To kick things off, we’ve just released a new tutorial, “Data Models of InterSystems IRIS,” covering the fundamentals of the IRIS multimodel approach. This is exactly the type of focused, concise, practical learning experience we want to expand. And this is where you come in!

We’d love to hear your ideas for other tutorial topics to help developers new to InterSystems IRIS take their first steps with confidence. Please welcome the new sweepstakes:
