I'm pleased to announce the publication of gj :: dataLoader, a new VS Code extension that simplifies the task of loading data from local CSV files into SQL tables on your InterSystems IRIS servers.

Here's an introductory video:

The Load Data utility it is an excellent tool to load data from CSV/TXT files into an IRIS SQL Table, but it is required send the target file to the IRIS server and write the Load Data sentence to ingest the file content. Now it is possible select a file in VSCode, set the table destination and submit the request. The vscode-load-data utility will send the file to the IRIS server and run the Load Data command to you! Very simple:

I am working on building out a Workflow task that captures errors in mapping to specific tables. Within the Workflow task, I would like to give the owner of the task the ability to resubmit message once the mapping has been corrected. Is there a way to do it in a similar fashion to pulling up the Trace ie...

Need to capture filename during BPL process, then set it to MSH-6 in the HL7 message.

Please advice, if this can be done.

Hi,

We're working on new capabilities to help you build Agents and AI applications faster with InterSystems IRIS. In order to better understand which entry points and development methodologies would help you most, we've created this brief survey: Building AI solutions with InterSystems IRIS.

Filling it in should not take much more than 5 minutes, and your feedback on this exciting topic will help us fine tune our designs and prioritize the right features.

Thanks in advance!

InterSystems IRIS provides extensive configurable security options, yet many developers primarily use roles and resources to secure entire tables or routines. Today, we will delve deeper. We can also secure individual columns and rows separately, but these two mechanisms operate very differently. Let's begin with the columns.

Column Security

For testing and demonstration, we will keep our table structure concise and straightforward. We have a table called "Person" in the USER namespace that contains an ID column, a date of birth column (DOB), first name, and last name.

I copied a Business Process router and did a Save As on its routing rule. I added the new routing rule to my new Business Process router. However, when I click the green circle next to my new Business Process router it shows the old Business Process router connection. Anyone know the cause and fix for this? I found a old post that said to add a Route Alias. But that did not work.

Recently, we implemented some Java-based services using JDBC. And some time ago, I refactored some legacy PHP programs that used "csession" for communication between systems to use PDO with ODBC.

This raised a question for me about how license management is done in this scenario.
Is a license used per pool? Or per connection? How is this management done?

Welcome to the monthly recap of updates and releases to VS Code and InterSystems-related extensions that are relevant to IRIS developers.

We'll break down the updates that are relevant to InterSystems developers with tips on how they can be applied to your day-to-day projects.

Overview

This release focuses on performance optimization, improved security synchronization, and enhanced network management. The FHIR Server has been upgraded to a new version and migrated to ARM64, delivering significantly better efficiency and throughput. Additionally, several improvements enhance resiliency, subscription management, and network visibility.
