I'm trying to gather more data for one of my namespaces so I can do some analysis. However when I run .BuildIndex() nothing populates in the resulting SQL table. I've tried deleting the class and reimporting and compiling and still nothing. I feel like I'm doing something OBVIOUS that's wrong but I can't quite figure out what it is. Here's what I'm doing (Customer name redacted)
 

Class CUST***.System.Cerner.Hl7.SearchTable Extends EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable

{



Parameter DOCCLASS = "EnsLib.HL7.Message";Parameter EXTENTSIZE = 4000000;

I am receiving a FHIR response bundle back with a resource of patient. Using fromDao, I attempted to take the stream and put it into FHIRModel.R4.Patient but it is not mapping correctly. When I attempt to take FHIRModel.R4.Patient and write it out using toString(), all I am seeing is the resource

{"resourceType":"Patient"}

so the response is not mapping correctly to FHIRModel.R4.Patient. How have others handled this? Do I need to translate it to an SDA since it does fit the model format?

I am trying to get the value of a Submit button on a CSP object page.

<input type="Submit" value="Assign" name="action" id="action">

I tried getting it thru $GET(%Request.Data("action")), but it throws an Undefined error. Isnt $GET supposed to handle it if its undefined anyway?

How do I get the "value" of the button pushed when the form is set to POST?

Hi Community

I'm working on a complex piece of rules that needs to check each OBX and evaluate if 3 of the fields match certain criteria. I've tried to achieve this using a Foreach loop, which does work, however it is not as clean as I wanted it. I was hoping I could assign temp variables inside the foreach loop to make the rules more easier to read, for example @testCode @resultText. This is not support as you can only assign inside a when condition. Before I raise this as an idea, i wondered if there was an alternative way to achieve the same thing?

Question Jeffrey Drumm · Jun 18, 2025

I seem to remember making this work before, but I'm not having any luck digging up examples.

I've defined some custom properties for a business operation that could definitely benefit from having popup descriptions available in the Production Configuration. I have triple-slash comments before each property that do just that in the source. I thought those provided the text for the popup descriptions when clicking on the property name, but apparently not.

Any thoughts?

Question Harshitha · Jul 1, 2025

Hi everyone,

I'm working with JavaScript in InterSystems IRIS, specifically in CSP pages. One issue I'm running into during development is that the browser keeps loading the cached version of my JavaScript files, even after I’ve made changes or recompiled the code.
I would have to clear my cache files or browser history for it to reload and work.

Is there a recommended way or best practice in IRIS to automatically clear or bypass the browser cache for JavaScript?

Question Evgeny Shvarov · Jun 29, 2025

Hi noble devs!

Just building a simple frontend->JSON->IRIS backend story, and figured that IRIS while importing via %JSON.Adaptor wants JSON fields to match property names, meaning even should match the case. Like:

{ name: "John", 

surname: "Doe"}

will have issues while saving the dynamic object to a class Sample.Person with:

Class Sample.Person Extends (%Persistent, %JSON.Adaptor)

{

Property Name: %Sting;Property Surname: %String;
}

As soon as the case is not the same... 

Is there any setting to fix this?) By fixing I mean I want IRIS to don't care about the case JSON fields, as it

Question Ashok Kumar T · Jun 27, 2025

Hello Community,

When handling a %CSP.REST API response for a custom endpoint, how can I capture or access the response content before it is written to the output buffer and sent through the Web Gateway to the UI?

In manually created REST services (for example, with a route like:<Route Url="/test" Method="POST" Call="User.Sample:Test" Cors="true"/> ),
the response is typically written from within any class method in the execution flow.

Is there a way to intercept or log the response content before it is sent to the client?

Thanks!

I'm running the image "containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/irishealth-community:2025.1" as a container on my local Docker desktop.

Now I want to set up an ODBC SQL connection, but I don't know how to do it.

I have tried various ways without success. Like building my own image (see "Dockerfile" description below).

I have also added ODBCINI variable in my docker-compse (see "Docker-compose.yml" description below).

Anyone done this before?

I'd really appreciate some help.

Thanks.

Question Phillip Wu · Jun 19, 2025

I'm confused about the differences between a namespace and a database.

I understand that a database is a single IRIS.DATA file in a directory in the os hosting IRIS.

What is the difference between a namespace and a database?

Can I write data into a database without specifying a namespace?
If so how do I write to a particlar DB in objectscript?

Does a database have to be in a namespace?
Can a database be in more than one namespace?

Can a namespace have only one 'routine' database and only one 'data' database?

Question Will · Jun 25, 2025

My HL7 message got "AR" (rejected ack code) and went to the suspended queue.  I re-submitted it (without editing it) but forgot to write down the details before doing so.  It got "AA" and everything works fine from there.

Now (the next day) I want to check with the downstream system why they returned "AR" initially.  Is there a way to search for the original message the got an "AR", along with any returned error message please?

Thanks
