Question Chris Lambert · Aug 21, 2025

Hello,

I'm trying to get the Reply Action Code to work with the error message text.

I have this ACK:

MSH|^~\&|APP|FACIL|||20250821143621||ACK|CUEACK_20250821143621|P|2.4
MSA|AE||Failed to queue message

This is some of the Action Codes I've tried:

  • E*Failed to queue message=S
  • E*Failed=S
  • E*"Failed to queue message"=S
  • :E*Failed to queue message=S
  • :?E*Failed to queue message=S

It's not suspending the message however.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you

While starting with Intersystems IRIS or Cache, developers often encounter three core concepts: Dynamic Objects, Globals & Relational Table. Each has its role in building scalable and maintainable solutions. In this article, we'll walk through practical code examples, highlight best practices, and show how these concepts tie together. 

1. Working with Dynamic Objects:

Dynamic objects (%DynamicObject and %DynamicArray) allow developers to manipulate JSON-like structures directly in Objectscript. They are especially useful for modern applications that need to parse, transform or generate JSON.

Hello All,

  I have used github (outside of IRIS) for many many years and have no problem with it.  Also used SVN and other source control systems.

  I have a conceptual problem understanding the ISC github links and how they work via VSCode.

https://github.com/intersystems/git-source-control

 Our server is on Linux.

What I've done:

1. On Linux Server - d ##class(SourceControl.Git.API).Configure()

2. Create a local repo (we have a local git), say https://repo/myrepo

3. VSCode installed Object script addons, github Pull requests extension

4. VSCode Connect to namespace on server, all good

5.

Is there a way to Remove specific all Addresses from a Provider.Individual.Address before reinserting the Addresses from an HL7 message in Provider Directory?

Most fields we can call %clearFields() however since Addresses come from multiple locations we need to isolate and treat Addresses from this HL7 source as a snapshot.

Thanks

Scott

Question Aaron Laferty · Aug 14, 2025

Hi all,

I’m running into an issue with a %ZEN.Component.tablePane in a Zen page.

We have:

  • A fully styled table with all columns defined
  • A backend query (SearchMessages) that accepts multiple filter parameters
  • A set of input fields at the top of the page for filtering (text, date, and checkboxes)

We’re trying to run the query from a button click using a client-side method (runSearch()) that collects the filter values, sets them as parameters, and calls executeQuery().

The problem is that the table does not update at all Old rows remain, or sometimes nothing appears.

I have the unfortunate job of installing IRIS and Healthshare (real Healthshare not Healthconnect) on 16 difference instances (tst, stg, prd with mirrors etc). the Dev was set up manually (mostly by me).

So I decided to create a class that installed the db's, namespaces, mappings and HSREGISTRY options , i then decided an installer manifest was a better idea, I keep changing my mind on which!

This article is a continuation of the IRIS JSON project and features additional methods and insights.

Let's continue with the instance methods

%GetTypeOf(Key)

This instance method is used to determine the JSON data type of the %DynamicObject or %DynamicArray.

It returns one of the following strings:

"null" - JSON null
"boolean" - Either "true" or "false"
"number" - Any numeric value
"oref" - An %ObjectHandle (an ObjectScript oref)
"object" - A nested object
"array" - A nested array
"string" - Normal text string
"unassigned" - The value is unassigned

USER>Set array = [1,"test",true,12.

Question Andre Ribera · Mar 25, 2025

Been testing out the Production Validator toolkit, just to see what we can/not do with it. Seems really interesting and there seem to be some use cases for it that can really streamline some upgrades (or at least parts of upgrades) but I was running into so many hurdles with the documentation. I am curious if anyone else has used it.
Did you experience any issues getting it working? Any clarification that you would have liked in the documentation? any use cases that you worked through that made it particularly valuable? etc?

Hello Community,

I'm currently planning a system upgrade from Caché (2018.1.8.766) to InterSystems IRIS (2024.1). The environment consists of one database server and three application servers connected via ECP.

I’m considering two possible upgrade approaches:

  1. Upgrade the application servers to IRIS first.
    Since IRIS is expected to be backward-compatible with Caché over ECP, the database server would remain on Caché temporarily.
  2. Upgrade the database server first,
    followed by upgrading the application servers, as they don’t store data.

Hello, how are you?

First of all thanks for your time reading this question.

We are investigating how to validate the indexes of a global. We have read:

https://docs.intersystems.com/irisforhealth20251/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI…

And:

https://docs.intersystems.com/irisforhealth20251/csp/documatic/%25CSP.D…

We want to validate the inxedes of the global titled "Ens.Util.LogD". We have executed on the ObjectScript terminal, on the desired namespace:

ESBSSCC>set tSC = $SYSTEM.OBJ.

InterSystems FAQ rubric

You can check the free disk space at any time using the system utility class: SYS.Database and query: FreeSpace.

Here's how to try it in the IRIS terminal (go to the %SYS namespace and then run it):

zn"%SYS"set stmt=##class(%SQL.Statement).%New()
set st=stmt.%PrepareClassQuery("SYS.Database","FreeSpace")
set rset=stmt.%Execute()
do rset.%Display()

The output result example is as follows:

*In the command execution example, all databases are located on the same disk, so the free disk space (DiskFreeSpace) returns the same value.

Are you curious about how to run Python scripts directly in your InterSystems IRIS or Caché terminal? 🤔 Good news it's easy! 😆 IRIS supports Embedded Python, allowing you to use Python interactively within its terminal environment. 

How to access the Python Shell?

To launch the Python shell from the IRIS terminal, simply run the following command:

do##class(%SYS.Python).Shell()

This opens an interactive Python shell inside the IRIS terminal. From here, you can write and run Python code just as you would in a normal Python environment.

Question Elisa Pischedda · Jul 17, 2025

Good morning everyone,
In the facility we're working in, we have two separate installations for testing and production. In the test environment, we have production processes running properly, and we need to replicate production processes and settings in the production environment. Until now, when we move from a test environment to a production environment, we currently export the test classes, import them into production, and manually configure the production environment by connecting Services, Processes, and Operations and configuring the settings.

Question Neil Thaiss · Jul 15, 2025

Hi,

We have just upgraded the Trusts test Health Connect instance from 2021.1 to 2025.1 and now the the Rules and DTL editors, in the Management Portal, timeout after 10 - 20 minutes of inactivity.
In 2021.1 we were able to disable this timeout using: set ^EnsPortal("DisableInactivityTimeout","Portal") = 1, however this no longer works with 2025.1, and is being ignored.
It may be being ignoring this global setting because the editors are no longer using the default Web Application for the Namespaces, and are using the: /ui/interop/rule-editor and /ui/interop/dtl-editor Web Applications.

Question Yone Moreno Jiménez · Feb 28, 2025

Good morning,

We need your help:

We wonder if there is a way to filter EnsLib.DICOM.Document, by using its DataSet properties on the Message Viewer.

For example, we would like to find the following DICOM.Document which DataSet.AccessionNumber is SR115985013100

By using the Message Viewer Filter we have tried the following:

FixedDataSet.AccessionNumber = SR115985013100

Because when we look fod a Body Property of the EnsLib.DICOM.Document it shows this drop down menu:

However, it replies with an error:

ERROR #5540: SQLCODE: Message -29: Field 'ENSLIB_DICOM.DOCUMENT.

Question Scott Roth · Jul 3, 2025

I am making a FHIR request against Epic, in when I get the Response back using "fromDao" I am extracting the stream into HS.FHIRModel.R4.Patient. However, the patient's name comes back as name within a list that references HS.FHIRModel.R4.SeqOfHumanName.

  • How do I extract the name from HS.FHIRModel.R4.SeqOfHumanName?
  • Do I have to then do another "fromDao" to pull the list into string format?
  • How do I navigate around the lists that are in a FHIRModel response, to extract the string values?

Question Aaron Laferty · Jul 11, 2025

So I have been working in Healthcare Interops for about a month now and in IRIS. I am looking to implement SMART on FHIR and I am currently working to make an endpoint that works as the discovery endpoint. It is a custom dispatch class and unauthenticated is selected for access. I am trying to make a simple get request from Postman to test that the proper JSON is sent, but I receive a 403 Forbidden error. It is reaching IRIS it seems so I know its not a reverse proxy error. Here is an example of my custom Dispatch Class.
