Hi,

I need a custom operation on patient type that will receive a business identifier and will search them and for each paient it will return a $everything for all the found patients written with object script

Hi Community,

Please welcome a new feature on Developer Community – the ability to add a link to the official InterSystems Documentation directly at the end of your post.

How it works

I have a need to create a specific Search Table outside of the EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable specifically for HL7 MFN messages in HealthShare Provider Directory.

Our Code is created in a different namespace then the main HSPD namespace and is mapped within the HSPD namespace mapping. 

I created a copy of EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable, named OSU.HL7.SearchTable what all needs mapped to make this new search table available in HSPD namespace?

If I go to Global within the Custom Code Namespace, I cannot see my new Search Table being created.

I'm trying to catch some WorkQueue errors that are happening on 2019 but not on more recent versions.

I'm getting an error when trying to call a class method via a workQueue. It functions properly in 2024.1. When calling the method, it immediately errors. I have logging at the top of the method that never gets set. 

The error being returned by Iris is simply an "ERROR #5039: An error occurred while calling function  s %sc=##class(|"NS"|Path.To.Class).ClassMethod(.%p1,.%p2)"

The parameter counts match and are appropriate for the method.

Hello,

I'm trying to get the Reply Action Code to work with the error message text.

I have this ACK:

MSH|^~\&|APP|FACIL|||20250821143621||ACK|CUEACK_20250821143621|P|2.4
MSA|AE||Failed to queue message

This is some of the Action Codes I've tried:

• E*Failed to queue message=S
• E*Failed=S
• E*"Failed to queue message"=S
• :E*Failed to queue message=S
• :?E*Failed to queue message=S

It's not suspending the message however.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you

Trying to import a .csp with VS code appears to do nothing.

Making a change to the file, saving it and then doing "Import and compile" results in no output and there is no change to the file on the server.

Developing with InterSystems Objects and SQL – In PersonSeptember 15-19, 2025

I’m pleased to announce the release of tree-sitter-objectscript, a new open-source tree-sitter grammar that brings first-class ObjectScript support to modern editors. If you caught the preview at READY ’25, you’ll be glad to know it’s now up on Github:

https://github.com/intersystems/tree-sitter-objectscript

What Does It Provide?

Hello,

I have a main dispatcher (that extends%CSP.REST) that contains:
<Routes>
   <Map Prefix="/v([0-9]{1,2})/news"    Forward="API.Dispatch.news"/>
</Routes>

And I have the sub-dispatcher that contains:
<Routes>
   <Route Url="/:id"                        Method="GET"  Call="NewsGetItem"/>
</Routes>
If I try to access this route:
https://mydomain.com/mobile/api/v4/news/123
It doesn't work (404).
 

Interoperability on Python (IoP) is a proof-of-concept project designed to showcase the power of the InterSystems IRIS Interoperability Framework when combined with a Python-first approach.IoP leverages Embedded Python (a feature of InterSystems IRIS) to enable developers to write interoperability components in Python, which can seamlessly integrate with the robust IRIS platform. This guide has been crafted for beginners and provides a comprehensive introduction to IoP, its setup, and practical steps to create your first interoperability component. By the end of this article, you will get a clear understanding of how to use IoP to build scalable, Python-based interoperability solutions.

InterSystems OMOP, The Cloud Service (Troy)

In this case, a robot is nothing like Gort from the movie “The Day the Earth Stood Still” or any other humanoid robot from science fiction. Nor is this Robot the one-armed automated welder from a real-world automotive assembly line. This Robot is a program that controls another program. You might want this for automated testing or to capture application logic from an application for which you don’t have the source, and the application’s author lacked the kindness or foresight to provide an API for its capabilities.

Like %GlobalCharacterStream, %GlobalBinaryStream, and others, as been deprecated in favor of %Stream.GlobalCharacter, %Stream.GlobalBinary, will this deprecated libraries one day no longer work?

⏯️  Closing the Scientific Knowledge Gap with AI

For venture capitalists (VCs), evaluating research can be challenging. While researchers typically possess years of training and deep expertise in their field, the VCs tasked with assessing their work often lack domain-specific knowledge. This can lead to incomplete understanding of scientific data and an inability to direct organizational initiatives. To solve this problem, we have designed a solution that empowers VCs with AI-driven due diligence: ResearchExplorer. ResearchExplorer is powered by InterSystems IRIS and GPT-4o to help analyze private biomedical research alongside public sources like PubMed using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Users submit natural language queries, and the system returns structured insights, head-to-head research comparisons, and AI-generated summaries. This allows users to bridge expertise gaps while securely protecting proprietary data.

Given:
class Foo.Bar extends Ens.BusinessOperation
{
Parameter SETTINGS = "Whatever:Basic";
}

class Foo.Baz extends Foo.Bar
I want to somehow drop "Whatever" as a setting from Foo.Baz. How can I do this?

I would like to know which are the best practices of using Streams in Interoperability messages.

I have always use %Stream.GlobalCharacter properties to hold a JSON, or a base64 document, when creating messages. This is fine and I can see the content in Visual Trace without doing anything, so I can check what is happening and resolve issues if I have, or reprocess messages if something went wrong, because I have the content.

While starting with Intersystems IRIS or Cache, developers often encounter three core concepts: Dynamic Objects, Globals & Relational Table. Each has its role in building scalable and maintainable solutions. In this article, we'll walk through practical code examples, highlight best practices, and show how these concepts tie together. 

1. Working with Dynamic Objects:

Dynamic objects (%DynamicObject and %DynamicArray) allow developers to manipulate JSON-like structures directly in Objectscript. They are especially useful for modern applications that need to parse, transform or generate JSON.

Trying to create a new SQL Storage map on existing cache Global in the following format - ^MYGLO("R",rec)=data where the 'data' is built using $zel. e.g. $zel(data,1)="p1", $zel(data,2)="p2" etc... and the ^MYGLO("R",123)=data.

I'm having 2 issues. First, using the SQL Storage map wizard, I cannot figure out how to convey data in $zel format in the "Delimiter" field. 

Second, since I couldn't figure that out,  I tried to use the "Use Retrieval Code" option and entered the following line for the P1 property:

but get an error when compiling saying I cannot reference another field:

Hi folks!

Consider I have a class "X.Y.Z"

What is the SQL table name for it? How can I obtain it via ObjectScript? 

A quick search doesn't show any methods and properties. Documentation is a bit "wrong" here saying that the SQL table name is the same. It will be at least 'x_y.z'.

Any help is very appreciated!)

Recently, I replaced my old laptop with a new one and had to migrate all my data. I was looking for a guide but couldn’t find anything that explained in detail how to migrate server connections from InterSystems Studio and Visual Studio Code from one PC to another. Simply reinstalling the tools is not enough, and migrating all the connections manually seemed like a waste of time. In the end, I managed to solve the problem, and this article explains how.

InterSystems Studio

Exporting Server Connections

SQLTools is a Visual Studio Code (VS Code) Extension with over 3.5 million downloads that provides connections to many of the most used databases, including InterSystems IRIS, using drivers. For developers new to VS Code, or those already familiar with it but are looking to streamline their connections to InterSystems IRIS, this tutorial will take you through installing the SQLTools extensions and the InterSystems IRIS drive. It then guides you on how to establish a connection to your instance of InterSystems IRIS and run a query. You will need: VS Code installed on your system and access to

I try the Large data Save in FHIR server in Binary Resource but it's failed 

Methed: Post , URL: fhirservers/fhir/r4/Binary 

I hit the API but the record not save and same API but base64 data length is 3 lac than it's save without faile.

I pass data on this formet

  "contentType" : "<code>", // R!  MimeType of the binary content

  "securityContext" : { Reference(Any) }, // Identifies another resource to use as proxy when enforcing access control

  "data" : "<base64Binary>" // The actual content

Hi Community,

Sometimes you may need to merge multiple accounts or simply update the email address you use across the different portals in the InterSystems Developer Ecosystem. Since each portal works a little differently, here’s a guide to help you through the process.

Change your email

If you’d like to use a different email (for example, use a work email instead of a personal one, or vice versa), here’s how to update it across the portals:

1. Update your email in InterSystems SSO. To do this:

• log in to login.intersystems.com
• choose Options - Change Email

• follow the prompts on screen to change your email

Or can I change namespaces within one connection object?

Running "docker exec -it iris iris terminal IRIS" automatically logs you in as irisowner in the terminal session, but how do you log in as a different user?

Hey Community!

We're happy to share the next video in the "Code to Care" series on our InterSystems Developers YouTube:

⏯  Can AI Fix Bugs? Evaluating Progress and Challenges

Hello All,

  I have used github (outside of IRIS) for many many years and have no problem with it.  Also used SVN and other source control systems.

  I have a conceptual problem understanding the ISC github links and how they work via VSCode.

https://github.com/intersystems/git-source-control

 Our server is on Linux.

What I've done:

1. On Linux Server - d ##class(SourceControl.Git.API).Configure()

2. Create a local repo (we have a local git), say https://repo/myrepo

3. VSCode installed Object script addons, github Pull requests extension

4. VSCode Connect to namespace on server, all good

This article describes a significant enhancement of how InterSystems IRIS deals with table statistics, a crucial element for IRIS SQL processing, in the 2025.2 release. We'll start with a brief refresher on what table statistics are, how they are used, and why we needed this enhancement. Then, we'll dive into the details of the new infrastructure for collecting and saving table statistics, after which we'll zoom in onto what the change means in practice for your applications. We'll end with a few additional notes on patterns enabled by the new model, and look forward to the follow-on phases of this initial delivery.
