ICYMI: A Discussion with Jenny Ames about InterSystems IRIS

I wanted to share each of the first three episodes of our new Data Points podcast with the community here — we previously posted announcements for episodes on IntegratedML and Kubernetes — so here is our episode on InterSystems IRIS as a whole! It was great talking with @Jenny Ames about what sets IRIS apart, some of the best use cases she's seen in her years as a trainer in the field and then as an online content developer, and more. Check it out, and make sure to subscribe at the link above — Episode 4 will be released next week!

Uploading gif/image into CSP page

Ok so I am way outside of my comfort zone, and had to build an application using CSP to give users the ability to access SQL configuration tables. These SQL Configuration tables will affect the data that is sent to the downstream system. 

I saw in the examples where we were able to import GIF's/IMAGES into the CSP folders to use as a reference in our CSP pages. My question is how do you do that? If I try to import through studio, it tells me the file is invalid.

Just trying to make it a little more user friendly then blocks on a page.

We are currently using Health Share 2018.1.3

Thanks

Scott

InterSystems IRIS Core Solutions Developer Specialist Exam and Caché Developers

Hi, there, everyone. 
 
We here in the certification team have been getting some questions about Caché developers taking the InterSystems IRIS Core Solutions Developer exam. I thought now would be a good time to clear up some doubts the community may have.
 
Even if you haven’t been working yet in InterSystems IRIS, the exam may well suit you already if you currently have experience in Caché. By looking at the Exam Details, you’ll see that there is only one IRIS-specific topic. Our exam designers did that on purpose because we knew that many of our partners and customers were considering or in the process of moving to IRIS as we developed the exam. We knew that most of our developers wouldn’t benefit from an exam that focused solely on new IRIS features. So, almost all of the exam is based on functionality you may already be familiar with. 
 
However, this isn’t a Caché exam because the exam topics represent how a developer would use InterSystems IRIS today. Those of you who have been using InterSystems technology for a longer time will know that InterSystems has evolved a rich selection of features that developers can choose from. So, when we worked with our internal and community experts to design the exam, we made sure to select the IRIS areas and features that favor contemporary application development. That wasn’t an easy task because we know that many InterSystems developers have their favorite approaches to application development or their team may already have pre-established coding practices that cause them to use InterSystems technologies in a very specific way. In any case, we took these (and several other) ideas into consideration and think we got the balance right.
 
So, if you are a Caché developer and you want to know if the InterSystems IRIS Core Solutions Developer Specialist exam is right for you, we invite you to read the Exam Content and Topics in the Exam Details. We also strongly encourage you to review the sample questions to see the style and approaches to the topics. You might want to look up some of the listed features in our documentation as well.
 
Finally, our certification team is here to answer any questions you may have about this or any other exam at certification@intersystems.com
 
Thanks and Best Regards, 
James Kantor - Certification Manager, InterSystems

MSSQL ODBC Connection Error (NativeError: [11001] )

Hello, I need to use IRIS to connect to an MSSQL base.
It has to be done via ODBC, I can't use JDBC at this time by client option.

I am trying to use Microsoft Driver
libmsodbcsql-13.1.so.9.2

But I can't, my attempts result in:
Connection failed.
SQLState: () NativeError: [11001] Message:

I have done all DSN configuration, and my configuration is listed in SQL Gateway Connections. I know it's working, because when I run a test with isql I have the information that connects to the bank.

This is my IRIS and Server configuration:
IRIS for UNIX (Ubuntu Server LTS for x86-64) 2018.1.1 (Build 643U)
