Hey Community,

We're happy to invite you to a LinkedIn Live session in Dutch

🎤 Data exchange in healthcare according to the FHIR standard with Python 🎤

Power your IrisCluster serviceTemplate with kube-vip

If you're running IRIS in a mirrored IrisCluster for HA in Kubernetes, the question of providing a Mirror VIP (Virtual IP) becomes relevant. Virtual IP offers a way for downstream systems to interact with IRIS using one IP address. Even when a failover happens, downstream systems can reconnect to the same IP address and continue working.

The lead in above was stolen (gaffled, jacked, pilfered) from techniques shared to the community for vips across public clouds with IRIS by @Eduard Lebedyuk ...

Articles: ☁ vip-aws | vip-gcp | vip-azure

This version strives to solve the same challenges for IRIS on Kubernetes when being deployed via MAAS, on prem, and possibly yet to be realized using cloud mechanics with Manged Kubernetes Services.  

Using embedded Python while building your InterSystems-based solution can add very powerful and deep capabilities to your toolbox.

I'd like to share one sample use-case I encountered - enabling a CDC (Change Data Capture) for a mongoDB Collection - capturing those changes, digesting them through an Interoperability flow, and eventually updating an EMR via a REST API.

Hi guys,

Is it bad to have too many Business Services in a production and what's the limit, I'm looking to convert our system tasks (around 30 of them) into Business Services and wondering if it's a better option?

Thanks

Hi,

 I have just installed WebTerminal on my local instance of Health Connect 2025.1, but it does not work and returns a HTTP 401 error.

Can any one help, as I have never installed WebTerminal before?

Has there been any changes in Health Connect to stop it working in version 2025.1?

Thanks.

Neil

Hi,

I'm using the iris for health community edition and I cannot seem to get the FHIR server configuration UI to show up.  I was able to create a FHIR server programaticlly but none of the user interface features that the installation guide talks about are available.  Once I was created the server I was able to see a Bulk FHIR Coordinator in the management portal, ut that's it.  Are the UI features not available in the community edition or do they need to be enabled somehow? 

This is the guide that I am using   https://docs.intersystems.com/irisforhealth20251/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?

Hi, Community!

Are you looking for ways to strengthen your InterSystems IRIS® data platform deployment? See how mirroring can help:

Architecting for Success with Mirroring

Hey Intersystems Community!

I'm trying to get IRIS to serve static files, including security and redirect to login if no session is present.

This is the flow I am trying to accomplish:

1. User Opens a page, <my-iris-instance>/my-app/index.html, index.html being a static file
2. User is redirected to the default IRIS Login page since no session is present
3. User logs in
4. User gets redirected back to index.html

For CSP applications this seems to work. I can open "http://localhost:52773/csp/sys/sec/%25CSP.UI.Portal.Applications.Web.zen?

I have a small web application developed on angular js hosted on IRIS using web application option from management portal. 

I am looking out for a login page which can simply use Health Share  authentication to get user login. 

Simple CSP login page to come when application is launched . 

I have a quite complex FHIR Implementation Guide (IG) which is based on several other FHIR IGs. It's likely the versions of IGs conflict with each other.
From what I understand, I would need to load in all the other FHIR IG's first? 
I don't actually need FHIR profiles to be in our FHIR Repository - I'm just after terminology and the examples for our test system.
Is it possible to load a FHIR IG just as data? (I think I mean here, ignore the FHIR profiles and dependencies between them)

You may have noticed that to configure a mirror for InterSystems IRIS for Health™ and HealthShare® Health Connect there is a special requirement. I wanted to go through it step by step in this article.

This assumes you have already configured the second failover member and confirmed a successful failover member status in the mirror monitor:

Step 1: Enable HS_Services user (on backup and primary) 

Step 2: Switch to Namespace HSSYS and go to Interoperability > Configure > Credentials.

Hi guys,

I'm looking to mimic this Post request URL where I'm sending a token :

So I created the below code but I'm getting "HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed" error 

s Url="myurl/confirmed?id="_token
Set Httprequest1=##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
Set Httprequest1.SSLConfiguration="LS2"
Set Httprequest1.Server="myserver.com" 
Set Httprequest1.Timeout=30
Set Httprequest1.Https=1
Set Httprequest1.Port=7711
set Httprequest1.ContentType="application/json"
Do Httprequest1.SetHeader("Accept","application/json")
Do Httprequest1.SetHeader("Accept-Language","en_US")
//D Httprequest1.EntityBody.

Can someone help me understand what type of user error (?) is going on here please?

One one system, I write out a group of $c() values and get the expected results:

USER>for i=250:1:260 { write i," ", $c(i),! }
250 ú
251 û
252 ü
253 ý
254 þ
255 ÿ
256 Ā

USER>w $zv
IRIS for Windows (x86-64) 2023.1.4 (Build 580U) Fri Apr 19 2024 11:16:07 EDT

On another system, I get some unexpected results:

USER>for i=250:1:260 { write i," ",$c(i),!

i am looking for a Class or Function to check if a Base64 document is valid ( will results into Full file after decoding or not ), 
i was not able to find any predefined class in Objectscript ,
has anyone worked on something  similar before ?
any advice will be welcomed 

I would like to share with you a little trick to customize how messages are displayed in the Message Viewer. In particular, how you can display messages as JSON (instead of the default XML representation).

Messages are objects that are used to communicate interoperability productions components. In my example I have defined a message that later I serialize as JSON to send to an external API. This message is defined as a regular message and also as a %JSON.Adaptor so I can export / import directly to or from JSON.

Class interop.msg.DeviceOrderReq Extends (Ens.Request, %JSON.

Hey Community,

Enjoy the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

⏯ Using SerenityGPT to Build Out an Application GenAI Middleware at InterSystems @ Ready 2025

Introduction

In this article, we will explore various approaches to extending and customizing the behavior of InterSystems IRIS (and IRIS Health) built-in interoperability message routers.

Message routers perform one of the core functions of Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) and are among the most frequently used business processes in interoperability productions.

When IRIS 2023.2 reaches general availability, we’ll be making some improvements to how we tag and distribute IRIS & IRIS for Health containers.

IRIS containers have been tagged using the full build number format, for example 2023.1.0.235.1.  Customers have been asking for more stable tags, so they don’t need to change their dockerfiles/Kubernetes files every time a new release is made.  With that in mind, we’re making the following changes to how we tag container images.

Major.Minor Tags:  Containers will be tagged with the year and release, but not the rest of the full build number.

APM normally focuses on the activity of the application but gathering information about system usage gives you important background information that helps understand and manage the performance of your application so I am including the IRIS History Monitor in this series.

In this article I will briefly describe how you start the IRIS or Caché History Monitor to build a record of the system level activity to go with the application activity and performance information you gather. I will also give examples of SQL to access the information.

What is the IRIS or Caché History Monitor?

Can someone give me an explanation of how Local.PD.Linkage.Definition.Individual works? This was setup by another company as part of our implementation.

Below is my configuration..

We are getting a lot of matches on Given Name, but then the Family Name does not match at all, so I am wondering if these need to be adjusted. I just don't understand if they need to be positive or negative.

if I use the MLE CALIBRATION MONITOR, it seems that none of the values should be negative.

Hi everyone, on HealthShare Unified Care Record 2024.1.0 Build, we're using the Analytics section to create a dashboard containing a time chart showing a cumulative curve of the number of documents indexed in the registry for each documentSource of each repository. We tried the following steps: we created a cube whose dimensions are the CreationDate, SourceValue, and repositoryUniqueID of the HS_Registry.Document table; in the Analytics section, we created a pivot table that lists the document creation date on each row, along with as many columns as each repository's documentSources.

Hello everyone! 👋

I have a question regarding roles and resources. 

To give you some context: I have a user who has been assigned only the role %HS_UsageDashboard_Access.This allows them to access the dashboards correctly (by giving the direct URL). Then,  if I try to access the Management Portal with this same user, I can log in with no access to any resources within it (as expected).

The point is that I would like to completely deny him access to the Management Portal, while allowing him to view only the dashboards, as expected from the %HS_UsageDashboard_Access role.

Hello, thanks for your time reading this question.

We are receiving each day, alerts from one of our four Production nodes. It always has the same text:

[InterSystems IRIS SEVERE ERROR gchciris4.canariasalud:ENSEMBLE] [Utility.Event] [SYSTEM MONITOR] CSPGatewayLatency(127.0.0.1:443) Alert: CSPGatewayLatency = 5001.304, 5001.233, 5000.964 (Max value is 2000).

We have looked for it in the documentation here:

https://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?

Trying to check date in DTL. 

Want to throw a custom error not the default one from the $ZDTH. It does in the try as will write "Error" when testing the DTL but the actual error not showing. Report errors is turned on.  I also tried the THROW logic from best practices but that doesn't work either. $SYSTEM.Status.DisplayError(status) does display what the error should be returned. 

 try 
 {
    set tDateH = $ZDATEH(tDateofDeath, 8)
 }
 catch ex 
 { 
  w "error"
 set status = $$$ERROR($$$GeneralError,"Custom error message")
 do $SYSTEM.Status.DisplayError(status)
 do $SystemStatus.

When using a EnsLib.RecordMap.Service.FileService business service, is there a way to tell which row number that is being read in? I want to read in a csv, but on the first record, trigger a truncate on the External SQL Table that it is being written to through JDBC.

Thanks
