When using standard SQL or the object layer in InterSystems IRIS, metadata consistency is usually maintained through built-in validation and type enforcement. However, legacy systems that bypass these layers—directly accessing globals—can introduce subtle and serious inconsistencies.

Hi - I'm refreshing my IRIS instance, now upgraded to 2025.1, and ensuring IPM is installed in each namespace, as well as git-source-control, but in my first attempt I get this error.

Everything else seems to work - but why the error (I'd like to get rid of it) ?

I read the article by @Rodolfo Pscheidt Jr:

I forked his app and copied selected files from @Guillaume Rongier iris-rag-demo to make it containerized:

i have a line in my *.scr file like this:

send: s rlt=##class(%SYS.Namespace).ListAll(.rlt)<CR>
wait for:USER>
send: S A="" F S A=$O(rlt(A)) q:A="" I A["USER"!(A["CLIE") F I=1:1:$L(L,",") S G="^["""_A_"""]"_$P(L,",",I) S B="" F S B=$O(@G@(B)) Q:B="" F J=1:1:$L(B) S V=$A($E(B,J,J)) I (V<48!(V>57))&&(V<65!(V>90))&&(V<97!(V>122)) W A,?10,G,?30,B,!<CR>
wait for:USER>

it errors out with this <SYNTAX> error where the "<" or ">" are not accepted.

Hi all,

I can't find the list of business host setting sections and (crucially) how to refer to them in the SETTINGS parameter, as marked in purple here:

Parameter SETTINGS = "MySetting:Basic";

Does anyone know where this list lives?

I cloned iris-rag-demo from Open Exchange and issued docker-compose up -d. I went to the front end and type in the chat message:

Who was the 46th President of United States of America?

I got a run time error:

RuntimeError: ERROR <Ens>ErrBPTerminated: Terminating BP ChatProcess # due to error: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'RuntimeError'>: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> <class 'ValueError' > ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'RuntimeError'

Traceback:

I added extra OBX segments and I need to renumber OBX 4 so they are sequential.

For my hundredth article on the Developer Community, I wanted to present something practical, so here's a comprehensive implementation of the GPG Interoperability Adapter for InterSystems IRIS.

Every so often, I would encounter a request for some GPG support, so I had several code samples written for a while, and I thought to combine all of them and add missing GPG functionality for a fairly complete coverage. That said, this Business Operation primarily covers data actions, skipping management actions such as key generation, export, and retrieval as they are usually one-off and performed manually anyways. However, this implementation does support key imports for obvious reasons. Well, let's get into it.

InterSystems IRIS 2025.2.0 introduces several features to improve the user experience of configuring OAuth2.

- OAuth2 is now a native authentication type and can be easily enabled for your services and web applications. Previously, OAuth2 was a type of delegated authentication.

- You can now create resource servers with the new OAuth2.ResourceServer class, which simplifies resource server configuration significantly. Previously, resource servers were instances of OAuth2.Client.

Hi all,

I noticed today that when adding a namespace (localhost) to the Workplace in VS Code, it is being created as read-only.

I haven’t encountered this issue before - previously, I was able to add the namespace with full access and could edit files without any problems. The settings appear to be the same as before.

I know that people who are completely new to VS Code, Git, Docker, FHIR, and other tools can sometimes struggle with setting up the environment. So I decided to write an article that walks through the entire setup process step by step to make it easier to get started.

I’d really appreciate it if you could leave a comment at the end - let me know if the instructions were clear, if anything was missing, or if there’s anything else you'd find helpful.

The setup includes:

✅ VS Code – Code editor
✅ Git – Version control system
✅ Docker – Runs an instance of IRIS for Health Community
✅ VS Code REST Client Extension – For running FHIR API queries
✅ Python – For writing FHIR-based scripts
✅ Jupyter Notebooks – For AI and FHIR assignments

Before you begin: Ensure you have administrator privileges on your system.
