Hi Team,

I've basic learning in Ensemble. I want to create a code as per following request. Please help in clearing following questions

We have a business process-AA. In this business process, we have onRequest method, here after performing some logic, I have to call a method ProcessAAlogic. 

In ProcessAAlogic method, after initial processing, we have to call a business operation BB asynchronously (which will give a flag "AACompleted" having value 1 or 0) in pResponse object.
Now based on this AACompleted flag, I have to call other methods which are part of onRequest method  i.e.

Hey Community!

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

As the title says, I've noticed that files that gets saved to the disk where the database lies (.DAT file) in the stream directory, does not get purged. Is this expected and do we need to create our own schedule task to clean this folder up?

I could only find old answers that say this, however I find it a bit odd if that is the case because they are considered temporary files. Perhaps I do not handle the streams correctly in the code?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently seeking a new position related to InterSystems technologies. I suppose I could call myself an expert in integration development with IRIS Interoperability (Ensemble). It is my major skill. In addition, I have extensive experience in database modeling on the Caché platform and API development, from specifications to unit testing. I develop high-load, mission-critical software on InterSystems IRIS Data Platform. My Caché ObjectScript programming experience includes hundreds of data flows, thousands of business hosts, dozens of APIs, and many other modules. I worked to integrate such apps as SAP S/4HANA, Oracle Siebel, and SAP Commerce Cloud. I have experience with various related areas, including SQL, Java, Embedded Python, mobile development, IRIS management, DevOps, Apache Kafka, etc. I am always looking for ways to be better, developing skills in new areas such as Java, Flutter (Dart), or Python within my own projects (see my GitHub).

Visual Studio Code releases new updates every month with new features and bug fixes, and the August 2025 release is now available.

Actually, I want to know specific production component status. I used "Ens.Config.Production" to get the status of component. But it will return only the component enabled/disabled. Anyone is having any Idea to get the specific production component status?

My problem was separating HL7 messages by message type.  I had to create multiple File Operations.  So I with custom code I am able to use 1 File Adapter for 1 interface and multiple message types.  I did experiment pulling the MSH 4 out of the raw content to further access dynamic information, but that may open a need for more robust error checking / lookup default actions.

Using the recommended naming convention of "To_FILE_<IntegrationName>"

I decided to use a generic file name and path in the default settings.

I created a custom class that extended the EnsLib.File.

I've been trying to set up a script I can run after installing an instance to enable IPM across all namespaces. I have been able to install IPM successfully using

set r = ##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New(),
    r.Server="pm.community.intersystems.com",
    r.SSLConfiguration="ISC.FeatureTracker.SSL.Config" 
d r.Get("/packages/zpm/latest/installer"),
    $system.OBJ.LoadStream(r.HttpResponse.Data,"c")

and then running the zpm commands

repo -r -n registry -url https://pm.community.intersystems.com/ -user "" -pass ""
enable -map -globally

Hey Community,

We're pleased to invite all the developers to the upcoming kick-off webinar for the InterSystems .Net, Java, Python, and JavaScript Contest!

During the webinar, you will discover the exciting challenges and opportunities that await developers in this contest. We will also discuss the topics we would like the participants to cover and show you how to develop, build, and deploy applications using the InterSystems IRIS data platform.

Date & Time: Wednesday, September 24 – 11:30 am EDT | 5:30 pm CEST  

In the previous article, we saw how to build a customer service AI agent with smolagents and InterSystems IRIS, combining SQL, RAG with vector search, and interoperability.

In that case, we used cloud models (OpenAI) for the LLM and embeddings.

This time, we’ll take it one step further: running the same agent, but with local models thanks to Ollama.

Hi,

so we introduced GIT in our workflow and we exported all files with $SYSTEM.OBJ.ExportUDL

Everything fine so far. But for some reason the export adds an extra line for classes (Routines are OK as far as I can see):

On Serverside it isn't there

The Problem is now that when we checkout a branch and a class changed we automatically compile it from the repository to a namespace that is made for the developer. E.g. DEV_001, DEV_002 and so on.

We are excited to announce the general availability of JediSoft IRISsync®, our new synchronization and comparison solution built on InterSystems IRIS technology.  IRISsync makes it easy to synchronize and compare IRIS instances.

IRISsync was voted runner-up in the "Most Likely to Use" category at InterSystems READY 2025 Demos and Drinks.

A huge thanks to everyone who supported us — we’re thrilled to see IRISsync resonating with the InterSystems user community!

IRISsync provides clear visibility into differences between environments.

Plug-N-Play on Pattern Match WorkBench

Article to announce pre-built pattern expressions are available from demo application.

AI deducing patterns require ten and more sample values to get warmed up.

The entry of a single value for a pattern has therefore been repurposed for retrieving pre-built patterns.

Example: Email address

Paste an sample value for example an email address in description and press "Pattern from Description".

The sample is tested against available built-in patterns and any matching patterns and descriptions are displayed.

Patterns can also be retrieved by Keyword.

I am struggling in understanding how FDN works within Health Share, in particular those that are related to Provider Directory within Health Share. Does anyone have examples of using FDN that they would be able share?

I would like to learn about the binary and document reference FHIR Resources. For the PDF data stored in those resources. But I think Binary Resource for the Document PDF stored in FHIR, so this resource is best for it. So sometimes Large PDF 15-page (~35md) data converts into base64 then data length is ~50 lac charecters length of base64binary data. this data store in Binary Resource on data field https://www.hl7.org/fhir/R4/binary.html follow this url this resource used in my case. so it's support the 50 lac charecter of the base64 length? This resource can be Insert into IRIS?

Hi Team, Cahe system is not starting while starting one of our software application and getting an above error

Hello everyone!

We won’t lie to you, we’re really looking forward to this webinar. Because of its topic, speaker, and everything we’ll learn from it. We invite you to this webinar in Spanish: “Connecting Sensors with InterSystems IRIS” on Thursday, October 2, at 4:00 PM (CEST).

Hi Community,

We're super excited to start sharing with you the recordings from the recent Ready 2025. And, of course, we're going to begin with the most important session of all - the one about Developer Ecosystem, highlighting the latest resources and tools available to our developer community.. 

🤩 InterSystems Developer Ecosystem - New Resources and Tools You Need to Know @ Ready 2025

Hi, 
 

My understanding is that IRIS comes with Embedded Python in it, how can create a page using Python instead or Zen or CSP Pages?
maybe a small sample (like hello python page) to get the idea.
Thanks  

August was an inspiring month for our Community 🙌

A huge thank you to all who joined the August Article Bounty 💙

Your contributions keep our knowledge base growing and make it easier for others to learn, solve problems, and get inspired.

Special shout-out to those who took the time to write brand-new articles and share their expertise (each received 5,000 points 🎉):

• @Iryna Mykhailova >> "A beginner's guide to creating SQL tables and seeing them as classes"
• @Robert.

New to using FDN, and the Form Wizard on learning.intersystems.com does not go into enough detail to help with my questions...

1. Is there a way to control text size within the Form Definition?
2. Is there a way to make Sections more of a Page based caching then, waiting for the entire page to load?

Hello Everyone,
I’m excited to join the InterSystems Developer Community, a place where IRIS, Caché, Ensemble, HealthShare, and all things InterSystems come alive through shared knowledge and collaboration.

A little about me,

• I’m passionate about building efficient, integration-driven solutions, exploring ObjectScript, working with REST APIs, and diving into analytics tools like DeepSee and IntegratedML.
• I’m here to learn from your real-world experiences, whether it’s tips on interoperability, performance tuning, or best practices across IRIS and HealthShare ecosystems.

Is there a better way (i.e., without string commands) to remove the fractions of seconds from a %Library.PosixTime value?

This works, but seems inefficient:

set1154669852181849976w

Note that I don't need the last string output; the value stored in "newposix" is what I want to retain.

Thanks in advance

I have a vendor that only wants results on patients that arrive to the ED via EMS/Ambulance.  The value I need for filtering is in the PV2;38. Some of the results requested do not allow the PV2 segment to be added to the schema in the EMR.  I was told that other orgs have used a lookup table that is populated with the PV1;19 value when an ADT messages that meets the criteria is sent in.  This table is then referenced in the business rule for the results that do not have PV2;38 and if Encounter number from result message exists on the Table, the result is sent.  Has anyone done this before?

There is a way to remove the web source control in the web page of BPL?

i already disabled a configuration in the production and works fine:

But in the BPL page, it doesn't worked. There is a way to disable this configuration at portal?

This demo introduces an AI-powered clinical decision support tool built on InterSystems IRIS. The use case addresses clinician burnout by unlocking the wisdom trapped in 30,000 unstructured clinical notes. We showcase IRIS's powerful vector search to perform hybrid (semantic + keyword) queries for complex diagnostic challenges. The highlight is our multi-modal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) assistant, which analyzes clinical video content in real-time to find similar past cases and synthesize evidence-based recommendations, transforming how clinicians access and utilize institutional knowledge.

We currently have Business Operation that we built to use the EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter so we can make Microsoft SQL Server Stored Procedure calls. The BO is attached to a Java Gateway Service.

Some of our MS SQL Databases have moved from being OnPrem to Azure Cloud. We have started seeing where we are receiving errors on the BO saying that we cannot connect to the Azure Database, but we never receive a Disconnect from the Azure Database.
