If one of your packages on OEX receives a review you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.   
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.   
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.   
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

I also placed a bunch of Pull Requests on GitHub when I found a problem I could fix.    
Some were accepted and merged, and some were just ignored.     
So if you made a major change and expect a changed review just let me know.

Question Eric Tulowetzke · May 23, 2025

Hi all,

My team is exploring options for handling timezone offsets in DTL and we’re wondering if there are any built-in methods available — ideally low-code or no-code solutions. Specifically, we're looking for a way to adjust timestamps based on the date and whether Daylight Saving Time (DST) is in effect.

For example, if an HL7 message has an MSH-7 value of 20250518144529, it should be converted to 20250518144529-0500 (Central Daylight Time), but if the timestamp were 20250218144529, it should be 20250218144529-0600 (Central Standard Time).

We’re fairly new to InterSystems and want to mak

I am testing vectorsearch, while doing so I am trying to paginate my resultset for a "next page" function to give me the first, second, third 15 entries within a table. 

For this I have two embedding classes. One with a HNSW Index (vectornomicembedtextlatest) , and one without (vectornomicembedtexttest).

Calling SELECT ID,PRIMKEY FROM SQLUser.vectornomicembedtexttest LIMIT 5 OFFSET 1 works fine with the first entry having the rowID of 486448. (I deleted old entries in the beginning and reused the table)

SELECT ID,PRIMKEY FROM SQLUser.vectornomicembedtexttest ORDER BY PRIMKEY DESC LIMIT 5 OF

Hi,

How do I create CSP page in IIS to be loaded from the class? 

Im able to open my index.html but I have class webapp.init.cls which extends %CSP.Page which should generate html. If I write localhost/myapp/webapp.init.cls I just got an error Invalid action.

In IIS Handler Mappings I did setup for *.cls and *.csp files. 

I followed this

https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cl…

When I created index.csp my IIS just return NOT FOUND. With the old APACHE server I had no issue with all, but Im trying to migrate to IIS.

After we rolled out a new cointainer based on containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/irishealth:2023.1 this week, we suddenly noticed that our FHIR Repository started responding with an Error 500. This turns out to be caused by PROTECT violations on the new HSSYSLOCALTEMP namespace and database used by this version of the IRIS for Health FHIR components.

The trick to solve that is to add the "%DB_HSSYSLOCALTEMP" to the Web Application(s) that handle FHIR Requests. You can script that by running the following Class method in the namespace(s) that define these Web Applications:

Hello Community,

When I run the following code with x undefined in terminal, it throws a syntax error and returns control to the program stack. After issuing a GO command, execution continues, and setting the global variable ^zz1.

code 1:

test.mac
if$Data(@x@(a,b,c)) {
    set^zz1=1212
}
write !,1212,!
////orif$Data(@x@(a,b,c)) set^zz1=1212write !,1212,!

 if I assign the result of $D(@x@(a,b,c)) to a local variable like d using set d=$D(@x@(a,b,c)), and then use if d { ... }, the code fails(global is not set) working as expected.

Code 2

I'm trying to deploy a python/flask application to an Iris4Health container (2025.1) but running into some issues with packages and where they should be installed. 

First one if the flask packages themselves. I tried to installed the flask packages into the python external language server virtual environment, but even doing this when configuring the WSGI application in the web application section, it would complain about not having a WSGI framework. Once I created a custom container and added the flask package at the OS level, I was able to configure the web application without it complaining

We’re issuing a point release for InterSystems IRIS, IRIS for Health, and Health Connect 2025.1 — version 2025.1.0.225.1 — to address a critical interoperability issue affecting users who leverage System Default Setting enabled business hosts.

What’s the issue?
In certain configurations where a Business Host is marked as System Default Setting enabled, applying new settings via the UI may incorrectly indicate that changes were applied, even though the necessary restart did not occur. This could result in settings not taking effect and lead to confusion or unexpected behavior in production envi

For 15 over years I have been playing with ways to speed up the way I use InterSystems systems and technology via AutoHotkey scripting.  As a power keyboard user (I avoid my mouse when possible) I found it very helpful to set up hotkeys to get to my most frequently accessed systems and research utilities as quickly as possible.  While I have used this approach for many years, this is the first time that I am introducing my approach and a customer-facing hotkey script to the D.C. and OEx...

Question Ryan Hulslander · May 21, 2025

WSDL for a CDC vendor was provided with a URL using a custom socket (non 443). Everything generated fine, but when making calls to their https:// URL that has their custom port in the URL - no response comes back. The assumption is, their server isn't even processing the request, as Postman does using the custom https://path.to.server:NNNN port in the URL.

I see with a normal web operation that uses %Net.HttpRequest overriding the port property is easily done - but no animal seems to exist for any generated SOAP Operation class. Is there a way to make a call in a SOAP operation using HTTPS bu

We're excited to announce the first-ever UI update for CCR Client Tools. The Client Tools UI has been upgraded to match the modern CCR UI, aiming to create a more seamless experience across both applications. The color scheme, fonts, and style elements have all been updated accordingly in the new UI:

All functionality has been preserved through the update, and the new changes are fully compatible with all major browsers, VSCode, and the legacy Studio IDE. For the best experience we recommend using VSCode or any modern browser, but Studio is still supported and will also reflect the new UI c

Question Laura Blázquez García · May 16, 2025

I'm creating a Business Process that:

  1. Transforms one object into another using DTL
  2. Sends this object to an operation
  3. Transform the object obtained in first point into another one using DTL
  4. Sends the second object to an operation

The Business Process is created with BPL, and objects are stored in BP context. When I execute this Process, in the 3rd point the object obtained in first transformation doesn't exist. It's empty.

I have tried to make transformation before making CALL's, I mean:

Just like a knockout punch, without giving the opponent a chance, Kubernetes, as an open source platform, has a universe of opportunities due to its availability (i.e., the ease of finding support, services and tools). It is a platform that can manage jobs and services in containers, which greatly simplifies the configuration and automation of these processes.

But let's justify the title image and give the tool in question the “correct” name: InterSystems Kubernetes Operator.

The principle is basic, you choose the services and define the rules for the game (here referring to Knockout again),

Hi, I am unsure how to remove this restriction; when I am performing dynamic SQL using ##class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirectNoPriv(, .query, args...)

It works fine, but the moment I add specific properties from the persistent class I am performing the select on into the WHERE clause, I get: ERROR #5540: SQLCODE: -99 Message: User UnknownUser is not privileged for the operation. Despite using %ExecDirectNoPriv, I've tried with prepared statement as well, exact same situation.

I'm sure most of you are familiar with utility %SYS.MONLBL that is crucial when analysing code performance bottlenecks. It allows you to select a number of routines that you want to monitor at runtime and also specify what process(es) you want to watch. BUT, what if you do not know exactly, what process would execute your code? This is true with many web based (CSP/REST) applications today. You want to minimize the resource utilization on your production system that needs analysis. So, how about doing a small tweak?
