This might be a dumb question but can we have more than one production in a namespace, because we do have running but I thought that I could create a separate one for another project?

Thx   

Hi Guys,

I'm a newbie in Python and I've imported this class from another IRIS and for some reason its get an error on %ToJSON()?

I'm also wondering on the need of importing iris at the top given that this code is already running in IRIS!? 

Thanks

Hi Guys,

I get the below error when trying to compile an imported class in IRIS, it compiles if I remove  [ Collection = list ] so not sure about the use of  [ Collection = list ] and if removing it would affect anything and its just a duplication?

Thanks

Getting this error when create a class in IRIS, any clues?

Thanks

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.

⏯️ Health Evolve: Transforming Unstructured Data

Did you know that 80% of healthcare data is stuck in unstructured formats such as fax? If you take a walk down to Mass General in Boston, you'll literally see a state-of-the-art MRI machine next to a fax machine. Healthcare keeps building incredible new technology but can't let go of legacy technology. We call this the "legacy modernization paradox". This short film follows a care manager at Blue Plan who spends her days doing chart reviews, reading faxes line-by-line, struggling to provide her members the care they need. Everything changes when Blue Plan pilots InterSystems Health Evolve, a solution that transforms her faxes into machine-readable FHIR data ready for AI and analysis. To access our fully working Text-to-FHIR prototype, visit HealthEvolve.de.

Managed Cloud Solutions to Help Streamline Your Health Services.

This demo showcases composing several InterSystems Managed Cloud Services to solve various use-cases.

The video is actually built of 6 short chapters (each ~2.5 minutes long) showing each part of the story, demoing a different service.

You can watch each "chapter" individually if you're interested in a specific service, but there is value in viewing the whole composition and observing the full flow.

• 0:00 Health Connect Cloud - Medical Device MQTT - HL7v2 for Hospital Operation Systems
• 2:29 FHIR Server & FHIR Transformation Service - HL7v2 to FHIR & Repository for Regulation & Exchange
• 5:21 FHIR SQL Builder - Providing standard relational access to FHIR data
• 7:22 "FHIR IntelliChat" (see note below) - Natural human language chat with FHIR Server
• 9:37 OMOP Solution - FHIR to OMOP transformation & OMOP database with OHDSI tools compliance
• 12:54 InterSystems Data Studio for Health - Creating a multi data/app sources fabric

[Note the "FHIR IntelliChat" part is not an actual formal InterSystems service, it is just a demonstration of a possibility (based on this solution by @José Pereira)]

Among the many contributors shaping the InterSystems Developer Community, some bring not only deep technical knowledge but a long-term vision and passion for empowering others. One of these exceptional voices belongs to @John Murray,a veteran of InterSystems technologies, an open-source advocate, and a founding member of the Developer Community.

👏 Let’s take a closer look at John’s remarkable journey and his continuing legacy in the InterSystems ecosystem.

InterSystems IRIS interoperability production development involves using or writing various types of components. They include services (which handle incoming data), processes (which deal with the data flow and logic), and operations (which manage outgoing data or requests). Messages flowing through those components constantly require being adapted to consuming applications. Therefore,Data transformations are by far the most common component in interoperability productions.

In the early stages of data transformation development, thetest tool from the Management Portal becomes quite handy.

Studio's Find In Files finds nothing if CLS routines are included. The error is WIDE CHAR. After using ##class(%Studio.Project).FindInFiles programmatically and then ZW after the same error I strongly suspect that CodeWalkopdatecopyopt in EnsLib.InteropTools.HL7.Cloverleaf.Parser.cls  is to blame. I cannot even open this class, unlike other classes from EnsLib.InteropTools.HL7. This error prevents searching even if System Items are excluded and I would peg EnsLib as System. Any remedy besides updating IRIS? Assuming this is fixed in later IRIS versions.

⏯️ Autonomous Business Intelligent Clerk (ABiC) - Combining InterSystems BI and Generative AI

Our Autonomous Business Intelligent Clerk, or ABiC for short, is a prototype revolutionizing how companies process data and make decisions. Normally, to get insights from data, you’d need IT knowledge or expertise in statistics. But with ABiC, that’s no longer necessary. All you have to do is ask your question in plain language. ABiC understands your interests and intentions, then shows a clear dashboard to guide your decisions. With ABiC, complex data is autonomously analyzed and turned into answers that support users, helping to accelerate business processes. This demo sends the metadata of InterSystems BI cubes to LLM. How does it work? Check out the video for more details!

I had a need for a Filter, but did not want to recreate the wheel by creating another Data Lookup Table, so instead I created a Linked Table that points to a MS SQL Table outside of IRIS.

Once I had the Linked Table, I created a Class Method Function that would query the Linked Table and return a 1 if a result came back.

    set ExtDisplay = ""

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 :)

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.

What am I missing to make sure that the OSU.HL7.

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

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.
