I need to connect IRIS to a third-party FHIR server which in turn is connected to Keycloak.

For machine-to-machine communications, client credentials grants should be used. I don't know why exactly but the FHIR server requires access tokens to contain the "openid" scope, otherwise it returns 401 (unauthorized).

If the access token returned by Keycloak contains that scope, IRIS complains about ""ERROR #8859: Unsupported response to access token request: OpenID Connect is not supported for password and client credentials grant type". The error is produced by the OAuth2.

Auditing is a critical capability ensuring the security of your server, and for quite a while ago we have included the ability to audit SQL statements run on the server.

With v2024.3 out already we're providing finer-grained options for defining these events to audit.

FastJsonSchema: High-Performance JSON Validation in IRIS

Validating JSON data against JSON Schema is a common requirement for modern applications. FastJsonSchema brings this capability natively to InterSystems IRIS, combining speed, simplicity, and full schema compliance.

Unlike traditional validation approaches, FastJsonSchema generates native ObjectScript code from your JSON Schemas and compiles it directly to iris object code, enabling idiomatic performance without relying on external libraries or runtimes.

Hey everyone.

As part of an ongoing mission to track down orphaned HL7 Messages in our integration engine, I have been digging into our environment to track down the causes.

Having looked at various posts here (including one of my own) there are a few scenarios that can create orphaned messages resulting in excessive disk space usage. These scenarios are generally:

1. Purging an environment with the option "Bodies Too" deselected
2. Code creating/saving a Message but then not sending it
3. BPL errors similar to 2, or a scenario where the response to a Call component is not set.

Hallo, I am new on programming Object Script.

My problem: How can I use a String variable in embedded SQL?

The below example does not work by using: namevar with ' ' 

set namevar = 'Ali'

&sql(DECLARE C2 CURSOR FOR SELECT name INTO :name FROM person where name = 'namevar')

Only below will work: person where name = 'Ali' 

Thanks in advance

Could someone explain how and why a HL7 ACK be showing up as a Orphaned message when I run the following SQL...
 

SELECT HL7.ID,HL7.DocType,HL7.Envelope,HL7.Identifier,HL7.MessageTypeCategory,HL7.Name,HL7.OriginalDocId,HL7.ParentId, HL7.TimeCreated
FROM EnsLib_HL7.Message HL7
LEFT JOIN Ens.MessageHeader hdr
ON HL7.Id=hdr.MessageBodyId
WHERE hdr.MessageBodyId IS NULL

I am trying to find the problem code that is causing the Orphaned messages, and an ACK showing up seems kind of Odd. While we do have Archive IO/Trace on, and Index NOT OK's set why would they show up as Orphaned messages?

There are a select few in the group that have been using Github as a Local Client push to a Repository setup in GitHub. Questions were brought up today about the security, and possible issues when it comes to data being pushed in this method.

Looking over code we have noticed that there is Histogram data within some of the class files that could be considered a security issue. Does anyone else have concerns with the Histogram data being within the class files pushed up to github?

I am using IRIS for Windows (x86-64) 2022.1 (Build 209) Tue May 31 2022 12:27:55 EDT [Health:3.5.0]. I created Interoperability Production with a Service to read file from S3 bucket and an Operation to write files to a different S3 bucket. I specified AWS  ProviderCredentialsFile.

I see "Terminating Job 7096 / 'From S3 Bucket' with Status = ERROR #5023: Remote Gateway Error: Connection cannot be established, %QuitTask=

Do I need anything like Python libraries or AWS CLI to make this work?

We're excited to announce the Early Access Program for IntegratedML Custom Models, a powerful new capability coming in IRIS 2026.1!

What Is It?

IntegratedML Custom Models extends the existing IntegratedML/AutoML feature by letting you deploy your own custom Python ML models directly within SQL queries.

In this article I will be discussing the use of an alternative LLM for generative IA. OpenIA is commonly used, in this article I will show you how to use it and the advantages of using Ollama

In the generative AI usage model that we are used to, we have the following flow:

• we take texts from a data source (a file, for example) and embedding that text into vectors
• we store the vectors in an IRIS database.
• we call an LLM (Large Language Model) that accesses these vectors as context to generate responses in human language.

Some time ago, I put together a small example to quickly deploy InterSystems IRIS instances connected via ECP using Docker.

Time passed and, like everything, it needed a bit of a refresh.

Within Provider Data Management, I wanted a way to capture the Code Table mapping errors thrown by HSPD.MDM.FlowControl.Process into a Workflow Task for someone to work. However, because HSPD.MDM.FlowControl.Process can get overwritten during the upgrade process, I cloned it into another Business Process so we can use Workflow Tasks to troubleshoot mapping errors.

This new Business Process will send the Errors to the Workflow Task Operation, but because it is not the HSPD.MDM.FlowControl.Process resubmitting the message will not resubmit the record to be processed through HSPD.MDM.FlowControl.

Overview

This release introduces major improvements to storage scalability and performance, a significant operating system upgrade across all offerings, and a new default version of the FHIR Server. Together, these updates enhance system reliability, flexibility, and security while ensuring long-term platform supportability.

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...

EnsPortal.VisualTrace.zen?SESSIONID=#(%task.%FormValues.GetAt("MsgHdrID"))#" target="_blank">View Message Trace

Is there a one liner that could be called to resubmit the MsgHdrID (Session ID) from its source to post it again?

When using standard SQL or the object layer in InterSystems IRIS, metadata consistency is usually maintained through built-in validation and type enforcement. However, legacy systems that bypass these layers—directly accessing globals—can introduce subtle and serious inconsistencies.

Understanding how drivers behave in these edge cases is crucial for diagnosing legacy data issues and ensuring application reliability.
The DATATYPE_SAMPLE database is designed to help analyze error scenarios where column values do not conform to the data types or constraints defined in the metadata.

Since the introduction of Embedded Python there has always been doubt about its performance compared to ObjectScript and on more than one occasion I have discussed this with @Guillaume Rongier , well, taking advantage of the fact that I was making a small application to capture data from public competitions in Spain and to be able to perform searches using the capabilities of VectorSearch I saw the opportunity to carry out a small test.

The Interoperability user interface project has continued from 2025.1 and has incorporated many of the items that you – our customers and partners – have suggested and observed.  We are continuing to invest in feedback and updating this important user experience.   In the latest release, 2025.3 for IRIS, IRIS for Health, Health Connect and Health Connect Cloud, the DTL Editor and Production Configuration applications that are available for opt-in.

I am trying to add validation to a RecordMap, because the source of the data sent file sent us bad data within the file. So, I am using PATTERN to verify certain fields start with Numeric, and Alpha where applicable. When the EnsLib.RecordMap.Service.FTPService runs into an issue it doesn't seem like it continues onto the next record if the record does not meet the validation requirements. 

How can I tell EnsLib.RecordMap.Service.FTPService to log the error and continue onto the next record, so those records that fail are not processed?

I am trying to add some validation to an existing Record Map, because recently we had some wrong data get consumed into the System and is causing all kinds of havoc.

Using the AI on the Developer community it suggested that I use PATTERN within the Datatype Parameters to force some validation on some fields. I have never used PATTERN before...

When I go to generate the updated Record Map, I am getting the following...

By the screenshots is my logic not correct?

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.
