Hi Guys,

Given that Analyst property is defined as class object I'm getting the Analyst ID in the below dataBinding, but I'm looking to display the Analyst name, I tried  using dataBinding="Analyst->Name" but no luck, I got the same issue when binding to dataCombo or comboBox ?     

<text dataBinding="Analyst" id="AnalystName" label="Analyst Name:" size="36" />

Production Decomposition

Production Decomposition is a new configuration option added to the CCR Client Tools that instead of source controlling the Production class as a single item, considers it a composition of configuration items. This allows different users to edit these distinct items within a Production at the same time. Historically, this has been a pain point with source controlling Productions as any work involving the Production class required a check out that prevented other users from making edits. Now check outs happen on a per-item basis within a Production where an item is con

Hello everybody,

I’m trying to install WebTerminal but I’m not able to have it working. I’ve looked all around the in github and the community but no-one seems to have the same problem. So I hope sharing this someone can give me a hint

I’m trying to connect to an InterSystems Caché database from my local development environment using an IPv4 address. Most examples I’ve found show how to connect using the ODBC driver with the localhost or the default IP address (127.0.0.1). However, I want to know how to connect using my local IPv4 address.

Here’s what I need help with:

1. Connecting with IPv4: I want to know how to specify my local IPv4 address in the ODBC connection string or any other method to connect to the Caché database.
2. Enabling Remote Connections: Additionally, how can I configure InterSystems Caché to allow remote

Generative artificial intelligence is artificial intelligence capable of generating text, images or other data using generative models, often in response to prompts. Generative AI models learn the patterns and structure of their input training data and then generate new data that has similar characteristics.

Generative AI is artificial intelligence capable of generating text, images and other types of content. What makes it a fantastic technology is that it democratizes AI, anyone can use it with as little as a text prompt, a sentence written in a natural language.

Welcome to the third and final publication of our articles dedicated to the development of RAG applications based on LLM models. In this final article, we will see, based on our small example project, how we can find the most appropriate context for the question we want to send to our LLM model and for this we will make use of the vector search functionality included in IRIS.

Vector searches

A key element of any RAG application is the vector search mechanism, which allows you to search within a table with records of this type for those most similar to the reference vector. To do this, it i

I'm trying to use JWT authentication on a REST application in IRIS. The login API are correctly "injected" into the application. Login works fine with Postman and other REST clients, and subsequent calls to my REST API using the bearer token work fine (correctly authenticated). So far, so good.

The problem is that it doesn't work with Axios, so I can only test it, I cannot integrate it into my application. I found out the reason for this is that Axios is applying CORS whereas Postman and other REST test clients do not; that is, they don't send the "preflight" OPTIONS request, they send th

I was working on a DTL but kept getting ERROR #5002... MAXSTRING errors. The problem was that most of the DTL GUI action steps only support the string data type when working with the segments. A %String has a limit of 3,641,144 characters and my OBX5.1 was 5,242,952 characters long as the example provided. Of course PACS admin stated ultra high quality up to and including 4K resolution files were needed, so we could not get the vendor to compress or reformat these files to compressed jpg or something similar.

Initially this vendor sends a 2.3 ORU^R01 and our EHR (Epic) is expecting a 2.3 MDM^

I'm experimenting with adapting SDA3 object model to store medical data in relational form, e.g.:

class Demo.DemoPatient extends (%Persistent, HS.SDA3.Patient) {}

The HS.SDA3.Patient class has the Aliases property which is a nested collection (list) of objects of type HS.SDA3.Name:

#dim record as Demo.DemoPatient = ##class(Demo.DemoPatient).%New()
set record.Name.FamilyName = "Clemens"
set record.Name.GivenName = "Samuel"
set record.BirthTime = "1935-11-30T12:00:00"
    
#dim alias as HS.SDA3.Name = ##class(HS.SDA3.Name).%New()
set alias.FamilyName = "Twain"
set alias.GivenName = "Mark"

In the past, I've created custom SQL operations, but now I had something trivial to do, so I decided to take EnsLib.SQL.Operation.GenericOperation out for a spin. There's no example in the docs, so it was a little tricky. Here's what I ended up doing:

In my external database, I have 'mytable' with two fields 'id1' and 'id2'. Here are the pertinent Business Operation settings:

SQL: select id2 from mytable where id1 = ?
Input Parameters: [1] *id1
RequestClass: Ens.StringRequest
ResponseClass: MyResponseClass

To look up 'id2' for the row where 'id1' is "abc", I set 'StringValue' of my request to

Some of our applications provide SOAP services that use “DSTIME”-based SQL queries that return records that have recently been added or changed. Since the records don’t change often, these queries usually return a small number of records and therefore take little time.

However, we sometimes make a table change that affects all records in that table. When that happens, on the next SOAP request from a SOAP client the service will run its query which will take an extra-long time because all records are included (for our apps, the queries return hundreds of thousands of records in this case).

Hi All,

I'm trying to connect to an IRIS instance using VSCode, the problem is, there are 2 IRIS instances installed on this server, published by the same hostname using https (port 443) under 2 different subfolders (e.g., iris.demo.com/base & iris.demo.com/test).

When connecting via studio, I was able to connect by using the hostname (e.g., iris.demo.com) and specifying the super server port, while when connecting through VSCode, when specifying the web server port 443, the connection is always defaulted to one of the instance.

Is there any way we can specify the instance in VSCode?

Hello Community,

This article aims to walk you through the process of setting up and utilizing the Flexible Python Runtime Feature for embedded Python. Prior to version 2024.2, Intersystems IRIS installer included a preinstalled version of Python, You can find the Python libraries and application files located in the \lib\python directory within your IRIS installation folder (for example, C:\InterSystems\IRIS20242\lib\python).

However, starting with version 2024.2, the IRIS installer no longer includes Python installation by default. Consequently, you will not find these files in the aforeme
