Hi folks!

It is very easy to import CSV data into IRIS. But what if we want to preserve the original IDs in CSV?

Recently I came across with the situation when I needed to import two csv's into IRIS which were linked by one column referencing to another csv's col: a typical Foreign Key and Primary Key situation, where csv1 contains this column as Primary Key, and csv2 as Foreign key with id's related to csv1.

The image is generated by ChatGPT so don't blame it - it tried its best to generate countries as primary keys with countries.csv-cities.csv relationship :)

In the Caché database, when calculating the total count based on the unique identifier of a record, the quantity is over 1.2 million. After removing duplicates based on the unique identifier and then calculating the total count, the quantity is over 400,000. When grouping by the unique identifier, it can be observed that the count for this identifier is not one. However, when performing a conditional query based on the identifier, only one record can be retrieved. Why is this the case?

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).

IRIS Home Assistant Add-On (HAOS)

InterSystems IRIS Community Edition HAOS Add-On

Run InterSystems IRIS inside of Home Assistant, as an add-on. Before you dismiss this article possibly under the guise that this is just a gimmick, Id like you to step back and take a look at how easy it is to launch IRIS based applications using this platform. If you look at Open Exchange, you will see dozens of dozens of applications worthy of launching while they are basically hung out to dry as gitware, and launchable if you want to get into a laptop battle with containerd or Docker. With a simple git repo, and a specification, you can now build your app on IRIS, and make it launchable through a marketplace with limited hassle to your end users. Run it along side Ollama and the LLM/LAM implementations, expose anything in IRIS as a sensor or expose an endpoint for interaction in your IRIS app to interact with anything you've connected to HAOS. Wanna restart an IRIS production with a flick of a physical switch or Assisted AI? You can do it with this add-on, or your own, right alongside the home automation hackers.

I created a Custom Search Table that extends EnsLib.HL7.Search Table. I saved, compiled, and rebuilt the index however when I go into Message Search to try to use the Search Table, within the conditions the proper fields are not showing up that was defined. It is showing the fields from EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable. I did a build index on both EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable and OSU.HL7.SearchTable.

I'd like to ask you for recommendations on how to properly use repository dependencies when using VSCode and Client-side editing.
Suppose I have projects A, B and C, with A being independent, B depending on A, and C depending on A and B.
I am currently working with the main project C, and I want to be able to contribute to all the other projects in a single VSCode window (instead of opening three instances). How do you solve this problem? Git submodules? ZPM? Something else?

Another step in this implementation path, adding cross cloud, cross regional stretched IrisCluster with Mirroring + Disaster Recovery using the Intersystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO) and Tailscale

Though trivial, Id like to go multi-cloud with the stretched IrisCluster for a couple of reasons to socialize the power of Wireguard when it supplies the network for a properly zoned IrisCluster by adding another mirror role to Amazon Web Services in the Western United States based datacenter in Oregon.

It appears as though command history is not available via up/down arrow keyboard keys when using the SQL Shell. Is there anything in the works to change that?

Also, typing the colon character (:) as the first character after the prompt in Terminal Lite does odd things in 2025.1.1 ... every keystroke starting with the colon is echoed back and pressing Enter generates an error:
