I'm writing an operation to use the LDAP Outbound Adapter to query AD.

The operation's settings include a basic Credentials selector, to allow you to use the built in Credentials function of Ensemble. This can be referenced in the operation with ..Adapter.Credentials

But when it comes to specifying the credentials in the Bind method, the documentation indicates that only a format of $lb(Username,Domain,Password) is supported. I tried ..Adapter.Credentials and $lb(..Adapter.Credentials) but the only thing that worked was setting the three variables in plain text first in the operation itself

I'm trying to schedule a task hourly. It's currently set to execute "Daily" but run every 60 minutes. It's only running daily. Do I need to change the "Daily" to OnDemand in order to get it to run hourly?

Hello, trying to figure out how to configure an Ensemble web service to use HTTP Basic authentication.  I have a web service client that will not be able to send SOAP headers.  I did not see that option at all in the documentation.  thanks

When running the built in Ensemble Purge task (Ens.Util.Tasks.Purge) there are three parameters DaysToKeep, BodiesToo, and KeepIntegrity.  This article focuses on the KeepIntegrity boolean parameter, but more information about running this task can be found here:

http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY…

KeepIntegrity determines which Ensemble Messages are marked for deletion within the time specified by DaysToKeep. 

With KeepIntegrity marked as true, the Purge will only mark “completed” messages for deletion.

Hi, We have been upgrading our application to ensemble 2016.1.1. I have moved my data to a particular namespace which i have created and now in management portal i have been getting an error message "namespace does not support Ensemble". Please give solutions to resolve this issue.

Thanks and regards

I am looking for samples for integrating Ensemble and RabbitMQ. Any pointers appreciated.

Is there any method or routine available to export and import the user roles and the sql table and sql procedures associated with each role?

Hi,

We have created a dll with .Net that generates a MS Word document with a template. The .Net method works, we have tested it with Visual Studio and it generates the document.

But once we have created the dll and embebed it in Ensemble through the Wizard, when we try to execute the method that generates the document, it doesn't work. It doesn't throw us an error, it simply doesn't open the template.

We have seen that MS Word program is opened, but that's all.

We are using Microsoft.Office.Interop to generate the Word document. It must be Word 97 version document.

What are we missing?

I'm working with a custom code in Studio and I'd like to know where a Class is being used.

The standard ctrl+f  search only in current file.

Hi-

I was wondering whether or not the Ensemble Event Log was accessible using SQL?  If so, what schema and table would that be contained in?

Thanks

Hi - If you want to embed Ensemble's Workflow Inbox, (that offers workflow task items to workflow users) inside of your application - you can access the URL directly without necessarily giving users access to the Management Portal - but more importantly, you can strip away the Titlebar, Worklists and Borders that make up the page by default.

You do this by using the same URL parameters you would use, if embedding a regular DeepSee dashboard into your application.

For example, adding &EMBED=1 at the end of the URL as depicted below:

Hi,

I have an Ensemble DTL which is suppose to translate the inbound XML document to an outbound XML document.

I need to test if a particular XML element exists, to perform some translation.

In the DTL I have the following,

<if condition='source.{element1.element2.element3}'>

<true>

    // do something

</true>

</if>

How do you use if statement to test the source XML document to see if a particular element exists in the source doucment.

Thanks,

This article explains how Atelier helps you to improve software development productivity. One of the Ensemble features is the VDoc infrastructure. When someone develops HL7 v2.* production, She/ He is in a luxurious situation because Ensemble comes with a HL7 Schema editor. On the other hand this is not the case with XML VDocs. But with some effort you can turn Atelier to a handy XSD editor and close the gap.

Please follow the step-by-step guide to complete the job.

Hi All,

We are Upgrading the Application from Ensemble 2009 to 2016.1. We have imported the user, Roles and Resources. But the Sql Tables and Sql Procedures are not being visible in Management portal -> Security Management -> User. Please give me a solution or basics steps for importing those.

Thanks, Manoj J

A beginner’s guide to position Ensemble in regards to MicroServices Architecture (MSA). MSA is getting more visibility in the Enterprise Java world therefore it is vital to understand what is behind the buzz. I make a (humble) attempt to write my view and share with you.

Background

First of all I must confess. Early this summer our Czech colleague Daniel Kutac was asking me to collect some information about a health care product developed in Hungary. When I got the feedback from the related company, it turned out, that the product is a modular system, based on MicroServices Architecture (MSA).

I am happy to share the news that Zen Mojo 1.1.2 has been released. This release includes a critical fix for Firefox that we had to get out as fast as possible. No other changes are included to allow easy upgrades. We recommend upgrading to this release if you are running on Zen Mojo 1.1.1.

All upcoming Caché and Ensemble releases will ship with Zen Mojo 1.1.2.

You can download Zen Mojo kits from the WRC distribution page: https://wrc.intersystems.com/wrc/Distribution.csp

Any fix or enhancement that was previously planned for Zen Mojo 1.1.2 will be included in the next upcoming release 1.1.3.

This is a beginner’s guide to the design of a “MicroService” implemented in Ensemble. “MicroService” is a popular phrase these days which has a broad interpretation. My interpretation is: “MicroService” is a “NoSQL Service”. A what? The answer is in the article.

We learnt what the difference is between SQL and NoSQL databases. For me the difference is nearly the same between a SOA Web Service and a “MicroService”. I am going to explain it through an example.

Please note, that although this is a beginner’s guide, I assume deep technology knowledge on data modelling, RESTful services and Ensemble.

My organization has been tasked with parsing raw EDI 271 messages into JSON strings in order to feed a downstream application.  A few key details about the task:

• The raw EDI 271 will be coming across as a standard format from a single outbound upstream system
• The EDI 271 messages adhere to the 5010 standard
• We do not need EVERY field from the EDI message, only a select number of fields.  However some of the fields we need (e.g. coverage details) are dynamic in size and will be variable in # of segments both on the EDI side as well as the receiving JSON side.

Hello All, 

I'm new and learning about Intersystems products. So I'd like to know what's the difference between Ensemble and HealthShare?

As far as I can see, looks like HealthShare uses Ensemble and could perform everything Ensemble does. 

InterSystems is pleased to announce that Caché and Ensemble 2015.2.5 are now available as maintenance releases.

For a complete list of the corrections in 2015.2.5, please review the release notes .

Caché and Ensemble are available for the same platforms as 2015.2.4.  The complete set of supported platforms, including specific point releases and patches, is detailed in the Supported Platforms document .

The HealthShare team will announce availability of its products separately.

The build corresponding to this release is 2015.2.5.953.0

Beginner’s guide to RESTful Application Program Interface (API) design and documentation. Through the example you will learn some common pattern for RESTful API.

Before you read

You need to know

• How to create RESTful web service in Ensemble
• How to consume RESTful web service in Ensemble
• How to pass service parameters
• How to return service result

What is a Service API?

What is an Application Programming Interface? Is it something materialized? Is it a single programming unit? What is an API for? From my point of view an API is something which is determined by the program code in an indirect way.

Do you find yourself commonly adding code actions to your data transformations? If so, what do these contain? Is there a reason you choose to add a code action over creating a custom function that you can call?

We are interfacing through Ensemble with an application that does not like diacritic signs in text. I have been searching for a way to strip these signs from the HL7 messages that get send to that application. 
The problem in short is we have an incoming HL7 message with e.g. é (or ë, á etc), this goes into Ensemble. In the outgoing message the é should be replaced with an e. 

I have tried solving this issue with the use of a new subtable, which does the conversion as é->e / ë->e etc.

Hello All,

   Does anyone have a specification for Telepath PMEP file formats?

They look like this

01|XXX|005|MIC|XXX Microbiology & Mycology|123456|25.08.16 15:06|
02|$$$|XX01|||L|
03|F|SURNAME|FORNAME|111222333|MRN1|01.01.1950|52 Some Lane|Somewhere|||AA11 1AB|MRN1|01.01.1950

etc etc with "05's all the way up to 10's" they are for results.  The supplier isn't being helpful, google for PMEP isn't given anything useful, hence I'm asking the friendly developers here if they've come across it and even better have any sort of file format or spec at all?

maybe I am not looking in the correct spots, but how should one handle an Exception from a SOAP web service within the Business  Process Language? For example I am sending a request to a Web Service to try to get information, but the response I am getting is an Exception like "Patient Not Found".

Is there a function I can call to check the response similar to what I do to check a SQL Snapshot to see if it is valued?

Thanks

I have an operation which calls an external web service, returning a long XML string.

Passing the string into Excel creates a table like this:

Each row above relates to a document on a server. In Ensemble, I need to parse the XML similarly to Excel, where I can loop over each document and take various actions depending on the different values.

I created a BPL to call the operation and return the XML string, which I've converted it to an %XML.TextReader object, and I'm using a While loop to loop through each element.

A beginner’s guide to Exception Handling in RESTful web services. The article gives an example how the various error conditions during processing a service request can be handled.

We expect our client – server communication working in a flawless operational condition, running error free software. But we are prepared to handle exceptions. Are we? So far in the examples of the previous sessions were not. We did not care about exceptions. The result? In any error incident it took ages to figure out what the problem is and more importantly how to fix it.

Remember, REST leans on HTTP.

I'm trying to read PID-3 and route the message based on if a certain prefix existed, but I keep getting Property Does Not Exist.

I've tried

HL7.(PID:PatientIDInternalID()) Contains "COS"

HL7.(PID:PatientIDInternalID(1)) Contains "COS"

HL7.{PID:PatientIDInternalID()} Contains "COS"

HL7.{PID:PatientIDInternalID(1)} Contains "COS"

This is a 2.3 MDM message. Thanks!

This article gives a brief introduction how a RESTful service consumer and a RESTful service provider exchange data. It is a beginner’s guide. Data is transferred from a consumer to a provider as parameters of the service. Parameters are part of a service request. The result of the service action a response is returned from a provider to a consumer. Both the service request and response are standard HTTP messages. Since HTTP is a flexible standard regarding to the message contents, RESTful services also enjoy the versatility of data transfer methods.
