#InterSystems IRIS for Health

I need to add an extra blank OBX segment after a segment containing text, Total Cost:

I get the OBX segment but it is in incorrect location.

It should be after the line containing Total Cost:

It needs to contain:

OBX|1|TX|2000.02^REASON FOR REQUEST^AS4|

code:

Does anyone know if iris merge can be called from Ansible.  I have tried a couple of ways, but it doesn't seem to actually run the command on the target even though Ansible outputs it was successful.

I have a segment within a Group (grp) that needs to be validated that it is populated within the message. 

When you use a Foreach within a Business Rule how should you account for the counter in the group?

For example, Epic sends their MFN message in the following format.

MSH~MFI~[~{~MFE~STF~PRA~[~ZPR~]~[~ZLK~]~[~CER~]~[~ZMG~]~[~ZTF~]~[~ZGP~]~[~ZDD~]~}~]

so, the ZLK segment might not exist until the last MFEgrp that is in the message. I need to verify if there is an Employee ID associated with the Provider in the HL7 message before I run it through the translation.

I am receiving the garbled text due to incorrect encoding or decoding. I tried to use the $zconvert function to convert it into the normal text but failed to do that. Can anybody suggest what I have to use to convert that into normal text?

Example: Garbled text that I am getting is "canââ¬â¢t , theyââ¬â¢re".

⏯ Introduction to OMOP Platform

Migrating InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health from on-premises to the cloud offers many advantages for Application Providers and Solution Providers. These advantages include simplified operations, access to flexible resources, and enhanced resilience. Companies no longer need to worry about the physical constraints and expenses associated with maintaining on-prem infrastructure, such as power and space requirements and expensive computer hardware.

One of the most compelling benefits is the ability to accelerate speed to market. By removing the burden of infrastructure maintenance, cloud environments enable faster development and deployment cycles, allowing businesses to respond quickly to market demands and opportunities. Operational costs are also lowered, because companies can scale resources up or down based on actual needs, leading to more efficient use of capital. Moreover, migrating to the cloud can contribute to a reduced carbon footprint by optimizing energy usage through shared cloud infrastructure.

Transitioning to the cloud may involve significant changes. Companies may benefit from a more operational focus, managing and optimizing cloud resources continuously. This shift may require changes to business models, reconsideration of margins, and strategies for scaling operations up or out. While requiring more investment, embracing these changes can lead to improved agility and competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Hi Community,
Traditional keyword-based search struggles with nuanced, domain-specific queries. Vector search, however, leverages semantic understanding, enabling AI agents to retrieve and generate responses based on context—not just keywords.
This article provides a step-by-step guide to creating an Agentic AI RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) application.

Implementation Steps:

1. Create Agent Tools
   • Add Ingest functionality: Automatically ingests and index documents (e.g., InterSystems IRIS 2025.1 Release Notes).
   • Implement Vector Search Functionality
2. Create Vector Search Agent
3. Handoff to Triage (Main Agent)
4. Run The Agent 

I deployed an IRIS REST application using Installer class. I think I created the namespace FEEDER database with %DB_Default resource and I used the same resource in Web Application roles. I allowed Unauthenticated Authentication method. I used ^%ISCLOG and reviewed ^ISCLOG. I do not understand why I get 403 Forbidden response.

Does %OSCertificateStore only check the trusted root folder in windows?

Can it be used for Personal store on servers or is there another condition can be used? 

Used it for a first time and writing a function to check specific ones being used for expiry but had one this week that was to be installed in personal rather than the trusted root and didn't know if stating OSCertificateStore or a url otherwise to look in the personal installed certs on the server could be used instead so stuck with the original way (which can get confusing)

  The "Ask Developer Community AI" tool is an excellent resource for studying for the certification. I asked it about each topic that will be covered in the test and the results are below.
Note: I classified each answer by the assertiveness that I consider as good, average and bad.

Trying to start investigating an error we are seeing with multiple of the same messages getting sent to the same vendor. We receive an HL7 message with an RTF embedded from our EMR, send it through a DTL to just update the Patient Class, and then send it onto the Operation which is TCP.

We are starting to see this error message...

DP-439207 - AIX JSON Unicode Parsing Issue

Background:

This guideline provides an overview of how to design and implement a REST API interface for querying patient demographic data from an Electronic Patient Record (EPR) system using HealthConnect. The process involves sending a query request with the patient's identification number, retrieving the response from the EPR system, extracting the required patient demographic data from the HL7 message, and sending it as a JSON response to the supplier. The high-level process diagram is shown below (Screenshot 1).

Hi Community,
In this article, I will introduce my application iris-AgenticAI .

The rise of agentic AI marks a transformative leap in how artificial intelligence interacts with the world—moving beyond static responses to dynamic, goal-driven problem-solving. Powered by OpenAI’s Agentic SDK , The OpenAI Agents SDK enables you to build agentic AI apps in a lightweight, easy-to-use package with very few abstractions. It's a production-ready upgrade of our previous experimentation for agents, Swarm.
This application showcases the next generation of autonomous AI systems capable of reasoning, collaborating, and executing complex tasks with human-like adaptability.

 JSON Web Token (JWT) Authentication

Hi Everyone,

I would like to share the code and step-by-step instructions/or guideline for generating a JWT (JSON Web Token) signature, as well as how to test it using Postman / HealthConnect.

JWT is an open standard (RFC 7519) that defines a compact, URL-safe method for securely transmitting information between parties in the form of a JSON object.

Structure of a JWT:

A JWT consists of three parts, separated by dots (.):

I just realized I never finished this serie of articles!

In today's article, we'll take a look at the production process that extracts the ICD-10 diagnoses most similar to our text, so we can select the most appropriate option from our frontend.

Looking for diagnostic similarities:

From the screen that shows the diagnostic requests received in HL7 in our application, we can search for the ICD-10 diagnoses closest to the text entered by the professional.

The complex record mapper can help you process text file data consisting of various types of records to persistent messages in IRIS. To gain a basic understanding of the complex record mapper and see an example implemented in the production, check out the learning services video below:

https://community.intersystems.com/post/video-using-complex-record-mapper

Is there a File Service (or a way to define a RecordMap) to intake a file that contains records that are JSON object?I would like to have my Service route each record(object) to a Process one at a time.

how can I get the classMethod name ?
like we get class name using "$CLASSNAME($THIS)", same way I need class Method ?

Now it is possible ask your IRIS server using an AI Chat or compose other agent applications to get:

1. List the server metrics
2. Return intersystems iris server information
3. Save the global value Hello to the global name Greetings
4. Get the global value Greetings
5. Kill the global Greetings
6. List the classes on IRIS Server
7. Where is intersystems iris installed?
8. Return namespace information from the USER
9. List the CSP Applications
10. List the server files on namespace USER
11. List the jobs on namespace %SYS

I'd like to ask you for recommendations on how to properly use repository dependencies when using VSCode and Client-side editing. Suppose I have projects A, B and C, with A being independent, B depending on A, and C depending on A and B. I am currently working with the main project C, and I want to be able to contribute to all the other projects in a single VSCode window (instead of opening three instances). How do you solve this problem? Git submodules? ZPM? Something else?

We are receiving the report in text format and it has special characters like ', - like that in the text. Source system is using the UTF8 encoding format hence the text is showing as ' � ' . Is there a way to convert the utf8 to actual character in the DTL.

Thank you,

I have a business service which is responsible for some batch operations with an SQL table. The process is generally slow but it is possible to scale the performance using multithreading and/or parallel processing and logical partitioning (postgres):

select id, col1, col2, mod(row_number() over (), 4) as partition from some_table;

Thus, a partition index will be assigned to each table row. The idea is to create several instances of my business service using pooling (e.g. Pool Size = 4) so each business service instance will be responsible to hande rows belonging to a certain partition, e.g.:

 I have dynamic sql select query ,

Set resultset = ##class(%ResultSet).%New()

 set sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "_tableName_" WHERE "_fieldName_">='"_fromDate_"' AND "_fieldName_"<='"_currentDate_"'"

 SET SC = resultset.Prepare(sql)

 SET SC = resultset.Execute(sql)

How can I print/view the count ?

With the introduction of vector data types and the Vector Search functionality in IRIS, a whole world of possibilities opens up for the development of applications and an example of these applications is the one that I recently saw published in a public contest by the Ministry of Health from Valencia in which they requested a tool to assist in ICD-10 coding using AI models.

How could we implement an application similar to the one requested? Let's see what we would need:

I need to make changes to  OBX 5 which shows as immutable

I have tried ConstructClone, ThrowOnError, and Streams but I can't get the syntax correct

Example

OBX|1|TX|2000.02^REASON FOR REQUEST^AS4|142|REASON FOR REQUEST:      Total Cost:           0.00||||||O
                                        ^^^^ remove "REASON FOR REQUEST"                                                                            ^^ add cr/lf so down stream reports can be formatted more easily

I have the code done to parse out the "REASON FOR REQUEST" but I need to make the OBX 5 show the change.
