Hi everyone,

I'm developing an Ensemble process that sends user data from a Business Process to a Business Operation using EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter. The operation is supposed to call a stored procedure on a SQL Server.

The stored procedure expects 3 parameters:
@FirstName, @LastName, and @Email.

The procedure works fine when executed directly from SQL Server Management Studio.

However, when I trigger it via Ensemble, I get the following error:

[SQL Server] Incorrect syntax near 'email@domain.com'

JSON

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based format designed for structured data interchange. It represents data objects consisting of key–value pairs and arrays, and it is entirely language-independent.

Data is at the heart of the digital transformation sweeping healthcare. Radical change requires a new foundation to handle the massive data demands of modern healthcare.

Time to market is crucial as you develop the next therapeutic breakthroughs, genomic insights, and intelligent clinical workflows. You need to deliver them now.

That’s why we’ve extended the power of our InterSystems IRIS Data Platform to address the unique characteristics of healthcare information. InterSystems IRIS for Health is the world’s first and only data platform engineered specifically for the rapid development of healthcare applications to manage the world’s most critical data.

I installed and configure CodeTidy in my local development environment, without InterSystems source-control (git-source-control) and only git for source control.

I would like to use only CodeTidy to stablish an automated  Linting and Code Style Validation for InterSystems ObjectScript code triggered by GitHub Actions.

Could you shed some light on how to accomplish that?

I have a table with 5M rows, the table contains lab observation codes and display names, both columns have type varchar(2000) and both are indexed.

The query looks like:

select code_1_text, count(code_1_text)
  from demo.observation_lab
  group by code_1_text
  order by 2 desc

The table contains ~1000 distinct display names.

It takes 4 minutes for the query to complete on a VM with some pretty old Xeon, 4 cores, 32G RAM, NVME SSD and Linux on board.

Isn't it too slow? During the execution I see no active hardware resources consumption - CPU load is 12-25%, RAM is almost free, swap file is not used.

If you want to find out what exact version your Docker image is (and since the latest image tagging scheme you cannot just rely on the image tag; and assuming you don't want to actually run it just in order to find out) you can run this docker command:

Hi I have a SDA3 created from large CCDA file, i am trying to map the SDA object to Stream using tSDA.ToQuickXMLStream(.tSDAOut).. i am getting xml parse error.. it works when the files are smaller.. Is there a workaround to get SDA to a stream

Greetings dear community members!

Many of you will remember the NLP capabilities available in IRIS under the name iKnow, which were deprecated not long ago. But...is everything deprecated? NO! A small village resists deprecation: iFind indexes!

Trying to extract the narrative text from large CCDA files using EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document:GetValueAt method

Getting a MAXSTRING error from the GetValueAt method.. Tried alternate by using GetSubDocumentAt and put it to string. Still it is giving a Invalid OREF method. Is there any limitation on these OOB methods. Also looking for ideas to extract it

Hi Community,

I'm working with IRIS for Health. I need to abort all messages currently in the queue via the command line (IRIS terminal). is there any easy way?

IrisTest is a light weight, powerful, user-friendly tool designed to simplify unit test report generation. It includes an interactive shell and API to facilitate communication, allowing developers to easily manage and generate reports for their test runs in various formats. Whether you're debugging or creating detailed reports for analysis, IrisTest makes the process smooth and efficient!

Overview

Working in healthcare IT as a young developer, especially on InterSystems TrakCare, you quickly realize one thing: it’s not just about HL7 messages or backend integrations. A hugepart of making TrakCare work smoothly for hospitals comes down to how it’s configured, customized, and supported on the application side.

That’s where people like me come in—techno-functional developers who understand both the tech and how it impacts actual hospital workflows.

We’re Not Just Techies (or Functional Consultants)

Our role sits right in the middle. We're the ones:

I am brand new to using AI. I downloaded some medical visit progress notes from my Patient Portal. I extracted text from PDF files. I found a YouTube video that showed how to extract metadata using an OpenAI query / prompt such as this one:

After having some discussions at Global Summit and using a lot of package managers in my day to day development (npm,nuget,Chocolatey, etc) in addition to recently using the InterSystems Package Manager for some CICD process I'm building using Intersystems IRIS and IRIS 4 Health, I wanted an easy and integrated way to search/view/install packages related to the Intersystems tech stack.

Hi everyone,

I’m working with an existing InterSystems IRIS server that hosts several web applications and namespace-specific code and data. I’d like to reverse-engineer the current environment into a %Installer.Manifest file so I can store it in Git and manage its changes.

My goal is to:

• Track the application setup and configuration in version control
• Rebuild environments consistently (namespaces, CSP apps, security roles, etc.)
• Possibly automate deployments later on

We are attempting to update some old FTP interfaces to use FTPS and having an issue with an outbound operation to a FileZilla server.

The connection to the the server works, however it fails to transfer files with the error "TLS session of data connection not resumed."

It appears that "TLS session resumption" is no longer optional in FileZilla Server, and I cannot find any details in the IRIS documentation about it.

Does IRIS support TLS session resumption, or know how to set up FTPS to a recent install of FileZilla Server?

With Intersystems indicating ZEN pages are being deprecated, I'm looking to find out how to add custom configuration pages for the management portal using the new method similar to the new Rules editor.

From what I can tell the new method uses rest pages using JWT Authentication, and has a mechanism to use the session cookie to generate the JWT token.
I've gotten the REST part done as per:

⏯️ Healthcare AI Agent Platform

An AI Agent Platform specifically built for the healthcare industry that requires no technical background to utilize. By simply defining a goal or initiative, a swarm of AI agents will conduct operations to achieve the stated end goal and measure their own efficacy along the way to continuously improve. Healthcare organizations today are facing a myriad of challenges that impact financial and clinical performance. These problems are well known, and there is a general consensus on how many of them can be alleviated with AI. However, healthcare organizations face unique challenges in implementing AI:

• HIPAA/Regulatory compliance - Data quality & accessibility - Embedding AI into current clinical workflows, i.e. integrating AI in such a way that it does not require clinicians to re-orient their processes. It should complement existing workflows, not disrupt them.
• Implementation cost/high technical barrier of entry – staff needed to build and maintain AI processes can become expensive
• Ambiguous ROI calculation – careful considerations must be made to properly measure and understand the efficacy of AI integrations. InterSystems is uniquely positioned to address these challenges, enabling healthcare organizations to implement AI with minimal burden.

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.

I feel I may be in the "people unclear on the concept" group here.

System Default Settings is a great mechanism, and we use some custom code to deploy it in our pipeline after environment specific changes have been applied to the content. However, we are trying our best to reduce the amount of custom code we use in our system that does not relate directly to the business. For CI/CD, this means we are trying to leverage IPM for the heavy lifting.

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.

Exiting the Shell:

>>> quit()

Hello Community
I was running code in the terminal and attempted to interrupt its execution. During that process, I encountered an application error with a log entry dated 01/06/1841, the date seems unusual.

Error <INTERRUPT>ErrST+6^%ETN occurred within %ETN itself. Detailed information cannot be logged.

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. We tried exporting the production environment
