HealthShare Unified Care Record Fundamentals – In Person (Boston, MA)* July 28-August 1, 2025

I am trying to get the value of a Submit button on a CSP object page.

<input type="Submit" value="Assign" name="action" id="action">

I tried getting it thru $GET(%Request.Data("action")), but it throws an Undefined error. Isnt $GET supposed to handle it if its undefined anyway?

How do I get the "value" of the button pushed when the form is set to POST?

Do not let the title of this article confuse you; we are not planning to take the InterSystems staff out to a fine Italian restaurant. Instead, this article will cover the principles of working with date and time data types in IRIS. When we use these data types, we should be aware of three different conversion issues:

1. Converting between internal and ODBC formats.
2. Converting between local time, UTC, and Posix time.
3. Converting to and from various date display formats.

Developing with InterSystems Objects and SQL – Virtual July 28-August 1, 2025

I have built a REST operation to submit a JSON Request Body, and in the JSON Response Object, I need to pull out certain values like pureID, portalURL, and under the identifiers array the ClassifiedID that has a term."en_US" = "Scopus Author ID"

In IRIS, every time a request need to be processed, a specific IRIS process (IRISDB.EXE) need to be assigned to handle that request.

If there is no spare IRIS process at that time, process will need to be created (and later destroyed). On some Windows systems (especially with security/antimalware solutions being active) creating new processes can be slow, which can results in delays during peak times (due to inrush of requests).

Hi Community

I'm working on a complex piece of rules that needs to check each OBX and evaluate if 3 of the fields match certain criteria. I've tried to achieve this using a Foreach loop, which does work, however it is not as clean as I wanted it. I was hoping I could assign temp variables inside the foreach loop to make the rules more easier to read, for example @testCode @resultText. This is not support as you can only assign inside a when condition. Before I raise this as an idea, i wondered if there was an alternative way to achieve the same thing?

I seem to remember making this work before, but I'm not having any luck digging up examples.

I've defined some custom properties for a business operation that could definitely benefit from having popup descriptions available in the Production Configuration. I have triple-slash comments before each property that do just that in the source. I thought those provided the text for the popup descriptions when clicking on the property name, but apparently not.

Any thoughts?

I am seeking work with InterSystems HealthConnect. My experience is working with Rules and DTLs, plus message search, and export of components.

I have actively developed and supported HL7 V2.x interfaces.

I reside in Massachusetts. Open to full-time or contract roles, either local or remote.

Hello everybody,

I would like to export project contents using Visual Studio Code, as well as I do with InterSystems Studio.

However, while attempting the export through the InterSystems extension I get the following error:

- There are no folders in the current workspace that code can be exported to.

These are the step to reproduce my error:

I am looking to create a Python virtual environment (venv) so that my imported/installed python packages can be separate on different namespaces in IRIS. I am able to go and create an environment, activate it, and install packages, but I am not sure how to ensure that Embedded Python methods actually point to this virtual environment.

Is the best solution to just load the virtual environment at runtime, in each method? That seems like a bad solution. Has anyone run into this and found a good solution?
