As a complete platform, InterSystems IRIS eliminates the need to integrate multiple development technologies. Applications require less code, fewer system resources, and less maintenance.

Question Paul Price · Jul 2, 2021

Newly created routines aren't showing up in the list for a namespace, even using the refresh button.

I checked the ^ROUTINE global and the newly created routine is there. Also, I can zload it and zprint it in the namespace. 

Is there another global that is not being populated that vscode uses to build the list?

Question Paul Dawson · Jul 6, 2021

I am attempting to prevent ADT merge messages from coming into Healthshare if the MRN being merged does not exist. To my mind, the best way to do this would be to check the PriorPatientIdentifierList.IDNumber against the HS.SDAStreamletMRN global. However, I'm not able to get it to work in Business Rule classes. 

Something like:

<when condition="$G(^HS.SDAStreamletMRN('MRN','Facility^AssigningAuthority^'_(Document.{MRG:PriorPatientIdentifierList(1).IDNumber}))=(&quot;&quot;))">

    <return></return>

However, I'm not able to have the business rule fire without a general error. 

I know that

Hey guys,

I have a problem when creating a remote database (via ECP), when I select the remote directory field it presents the error below:

Has anyone ever experienced this?

Hi Community,

Did you know about OWASP and Top Ten Web Application security risks to your Web API or Web Apps?

OWASP is a community foundation created to help us to improve the security of web apps/web APIs. OWASP do the web apps more secure through its community-led open source software projects, hundreds of chapters worldwide, tens of thousands of members, and by hosting local and global conferences.

To summarize the top procedures to do your web app/web api more secure OWASP published the "Top 10 Web Application Security Risks" recomendations, see (source: https://owasp.org/www-project-t

I'm glad to announce we have recently released our second Starter Pack. This one is for the Mining Industry, and the first was for Industrial IoT (OEE).

But what does it exactly mean?

InterSystems IRIS Starter Packs (thanks to Joe Lichtenberg that helped with this text)

InterSystems IRIS Starter Packs are codebases built by an InterSystems partner using InterSystems IRIS Data Platform that shortens the time to develop a complete application that addresses a specific industry or technology challenge. It is not a completed application.  Rather, it is a starter code that can be extended and cu

Hi Developers!

Here're the technology bonuses for the InterSystems IRIS AI contest that will give you extra points in the voting.

IntegratedML usage - 4 points

Use InterSystems IntegratedML in you AI/ML solution. Here is the template that uses it.

Be sure that the IRIS version is not less than 2021. The latest ML images with ZPM are:

intersystemsdc/iris-ml-community:2021.1.0.215.0-zpm
intersystemsdc/irishealth-ml-community:2021.1.0.215.0-zpm

R Gateway and Python gateway usage - 4 points

InterSystems IRIS 2021 release contains two new features - R gateway and Python gateway. Here is the template on how to use the R gateway. Here is a short demo of how to use it.

Embedded Python usage - 4 points

Embedded Python is a very new feature of InterSystems IRIS that gives you the option to use python as a "first-class citizen" in backend business logic development with InterSystems classes. Short demo of Embedded Python.

Embedded python could be used in "on-demand" images that could be delivered via InterSystems Early Access Program (EAP) if you refer to python-interest@intersystems.com.

Here is the template package on how to use Embedded Python deployable with ZPM. Don't forget to change the image to the one you get from the Early Access program.

PMML usage - 4 points

PMML  - Predictive Modelling Markup Language - can be used to build AI/ML solutions with InterSystems IRIS. Check with documentation.

There is an example in Open Exchange on how to use PMML.

Productions often need to receive REST requests.

Here's how to do that.

1. Create proxy Service:

/// Empty BS we would use to send Produciton requests
Class production.ProxyService Extends Ens.BusinessService
{
}

2. Add it to production as RESTService (or any other name).

3. Write your rest broker (docs, more docs)

4. In your handler method create the message and call target BP/BO like this

Include Ensemble
Class test.REST Extends %CSP.REST
{

XData UrlMap [ XMLNamespace = "http://www.intersystems.com/urlmap" ]
{
<Routes>
<Route Url="/launchProcess/:processName" Method="POST"

Question Mark O'Reilly · Jul 1, 2021

Hi, I think it's a simple question this at the end of something fairly complex

I've a DTL to go to a target class in context 

I get the error CLASS DOES NOT callrequest=##class(context.ConnectDocumentRequest).%New()'

I attempted to add code to initate the context with 

set context.ConnectDocumentRequest =##class(Penn.EDT.Messages.ConnectDocumentRequest).%New()

I know there is something basic i am missing but have not seen covered in any tutorials i have done. 

I see an example using Assign I tried assigning my context as 

$CLASSMETHOD("Penn.EDT.Messages.ConnectDocumentRequest","%New")

When a company is quite large and many different applications used by employees. But while those applications are mostly completely different, how to make it possible to not force users to enter credentials as many times as many applications they would like to use. The best way is to use SSO, so, it will be possible to have a portal, where users could launch any application used in a company. There are many different ways how to give access to your application by using the SSO mechanism, and some of them are:

  • OAuth2
  • Kerberos
  • SAML

InterSystems already supports OAuth2 and can be quite easily deal with Kerberos. But I would like to discuss about using SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language).

I'm participating in the Developing with InterSystems Objects and SQL with Joel Solon. The course is very nice and I will share with you some tips I got during the training. Tips presented in the day 1:

  1. InterSystems IRIS unifies: InterSystems IRIS Database (Caché), IRIS Interoperability (Ensemble), IRIS Business Intelligence (DeepSee) and IRIS Text Analytics (iKnow).
  2. IRIS is multimodel: object, relational, document and multidimensional.
  3. Interoperable: native access from Java, .NET, other languages, like ObjectScript; ODBC and JDBC data access, SOAP/REST service access; message driven with

For a long time, we have been using a utility in production to export the result of a query to an Excel spreadsheet. Moreover, we have applied a modification of it, in which the explicit setting of column formats is a priority.

This utility used the module %SYS.ZENReportExcelExporter and is based on a java program. Every year the report grew and there was not enough java RAM, so we had to increase the value of the environment variable. The value has reached 7gb and now it has become a problem.

We decided to find and create a replacement for the utility. Naturally I looked at python and the ope

InterSystems SAM is a great tool to monitor your InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS For Health clusters on prem or in a cloud environment. This article describes how you can implement a customized alert handler. This is currently an undocumented and most likely an unknown feature of InterSystems SAM. With future releases it will be probably made easier to leverage this useful concept.

In the interest of shortness, I will only mention InterSystems IRIS in this article, but the following applies to InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS For Health.
