I am having issues trying to send SOAP requests to a Cloud Based AWS Application that lives outside of our network. 

It is using a Basic Authentication, Key, Certificate Authority and Whitelist for Security. 

If I attempt the connection using wget from the command line I am able to connect,

Hello, dear members of our developer community!

In today's article, we're going to take a look at one of the latest remote monitoring features that have been added to the product for our IRIS instances. I'm talking about OpenTelemetry support.

1. A Motivating Example

Embedded Python has been around for a while. You probably followed the tutorials and learned about it. However, if you've tried to combine Python and ObjectScript in real development work, you probably ran into situations where you get an error message like this:

USER>Do##class(MyClass).SomeMethod()

ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'ZeroDivisionError'>: division by zero

It's a long string for limited information. All we know from this message is that a Python error occurred where (a) the error type is ZeroDivisionError; and (b) the erro

Hi.

I want to save and compile a class in VS Code, but I get the error:

Failed to save 'Utils.cls': Unable to write file 'isfs://mip:mz/API/Utils.cls?project=MZ' (Unknown (FileSystemError): Unknown Error).

Any ideas what is wrong?

Hey everyone,

I'm diving deeper into Caché ObjectScript and would love to open a discussion around the most useful tips, tricks, and best practices you’ve learned or discovered while working with it.

Whether you're an experienced developer or just getting started, ObjectScript has its own set of quirks and powerful features—some well-documented, others hidden gems. I’m looking to compile a helpful set of ideas from the community.

Some areas I’m especially interested in:

• 💡 Clever use of %INCLUDE, macros, and preprocessor directives
• ⚙️ Best practices in class-based development using %Pers

If you're migrating from Oracle to InterSystems IRIS—like many of my customers—you may run into Oracle-specific SQL patterns that need translation.

Take this example:

SELECT (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - LEVEL + 1) AS gap_date
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - TO_DATE('2023-05-02','YYYY-MM-DD') + 1);

In Oracle:

• LEVEL is a pseudo-column used in hierarchical queries (CONNECT BY). It starts at 1 and increments by 1.
• CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (...) determines how many rows to generate.
• The difference between the two dates plus one gives 11, so the qu

Is anyone using DICOM Interoperability in IRIS for Health configured in Mirror?

I'm asking because I'm not sure how to handle where the DICOM messages are stored.

For some reason DICOM use the filesystem to store raw messages, the directory used can be configured in the StorageLocation production settings, obviously this is a big issue if/when a mirror failover occur.

Unfortunately in IRIS it's not possible to change the DICOM storage from file stream to global stream.

Has anyone came across this issue?

I have created a new docker stack with webgateway and IRIS for Health 2025.1. I have mapped the posts of wegateway like this:

• 8743:443
• 8780:80

I can access IRIS portal through 8743 without problems.

I also have created a FHIR repository, and I'm able to access it through 8743 port.

I have a web application, in another server with another domain, that connects to this FHIR repository. I have configured in FHIR endpoint the allowed origin to the domain of this application. But when I try to connect from this application to FHIR repository I have this error on Webgateway:

InterSystems has released new point updates to resolve a defect affecting the most recent prior versions of 2025.1.0, 2024.1.4, 2023.1.6, and 2022.1.7, for the following supported product lines:

• InterSystems IRIS
• InterSystems IRIS for Health
• HealthShare Health Connect

This issue could result in unexpected <PROTECT> errors or access anomalies when using features such as:

• Implied namespaces
• Mixed read-only/read-write access to databases
• Management Portal pages for listing routines and globals

Symptoms Included:

• Namespace creation failures
• Intermittent “access denied” erro

For those that use IRIS for Health, HealthShare, and or Health Connect...

As Health Applications are moving to the Cloud, how have you handled communication from the Application to your instances via HTTPS?

Trying to figure out the best path on designing the proper workflow to allow these messages to be allowed to be eventually sent to our EMR to post to the patient chart.

We are very wary of opening a connection from the internet to our instance of Health Connect.

Thanks

Hello Everyone,

The Certification team of InterSystems Learning Services is developing two new HealthShare Unified Care Record certification exams, and we are reaching out to our community for feedback that will help us evaluate and establish the contents of the exams.  Please note that these exams will replace our HealthShare Unified Care Record Technical Specialist exam that we plan to retire in January 2026. Certifications earned in this technology before the exam’s retirement will remain valid for five years from the date of achievement.

Hello,
I have created this script that does lot of writes to a single global. DB write performance is much slower than expected (compared to another similar systems).

Within a DTC, I was able to take the a EnsLib.HL7.Message source and using

to take the HL7 message encode it and add it to the Data Class as a string to be sent to an Operation to be sent out as a SOAP Request. 

However to make it more universal I tried doing this within a copy of EnsLib.HL7.SOAPOperation

Does anyone have a copy of the Class EnsLib.File.CSVService, which can import a CSV file in a Business Service?

I have created a New Database/Namespace within our TEST environment on both the Primary and Backup of the mirror. When I go to create the database/namespace on the DR node I am getting "Cannot open file '/ensemble/TEST/iris.cpf_...." while the cpf file that it references does not exist. Anyone have any clue to why this might be happening?
