Hi folks!
Just curious, how can I use $znspace in embedded python code?
How does other $functions work, e.g. $zv, $job, etc

Hi folks!
Consider I need to call a python function which name contains "_" symbol (which is quite often in Python). How it could be called from ObjectScript?
E.g. here is the code:
Set sm = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("sample")
write sm.helloworld() ; function without _
white sm.hello_world() ; function with _ - won't compile.Thanks in advance!
Hi, Developers!
I wonder if it is possible to use class parameters in DTL XData?
E.g. in an example below of the DTL I'd prefer to setup ChatGPT prompts in parameters (GPTPrompt1) of DTL rather than quotes inside the XData XML:

If possible, how can I refer to a class parameter from XData?
Thanks in advance!
Countermeasures against SQL injection have been published on various websites, but we believe that it is possible to prevent SQL injection in applications using InterSystems SQL as well as other RDBMS by implementing these countermeasures appropriately. In addition, InterSystems Data Platform (hereinafter referred to as IRIS) incorporates several measures that make SQL injection more difficult than general RDBMS.
Hi folks!
I have an example where I want to write a string into a file.
I have a message with string and I want to write the string down into a file.
I took EnsLib.FilePathThrough.Operation which expects Ens.StreamContainer message.
So I perform a data transformation where I need to transfer string to a stream. Here is the DataTransformation:

How Job command can be used with Embedded Python code?
InterSystems announces its fourth preview, as part of the developer preview program for the 2023.2 release. This release will include InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health.
Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2023.2 and there are also brand-new capabilities, such as Time-Aware Modeling, enhancements of Foreign Tables, and the ability to use Ready-Only Federated Tables. Note that some of these features or improvements may not be available in this current developer preview.
In this article, I will share the theme we presented at the Global Summit 2023, in the Tech Exchange room. Me and @Rochael.
The Telegram Adapter for InterSystems IRIS serves as a bridge between the popular Telegram messaging platform and InterSystems IRIS, facilitating seamless communication and data exchange. By leveraging the capabilities of the Telegram API, the adapter allows developers to build robust chatbots, automate tasks, and integrate Telegram with InterSystems IRIS applications.
The most common scenarios where the Telegram Adapter can be used include:
Unable to run iris terminal as well as on management portal I am getting permission error.
ERROR in page definition:
Error #940: Insufficient privilege for operation
I already have created a User - irisusr and group - irisusr
if I am running sudo iris terminal IRIS command then it open terminal But earlier it was working fine.
Excuse if this is obvious to Python programmers but for those crossing over from ObjectScript this may be a useful tip.
The scenario is developing some Embedded python commands.
Testing out functionality is being confirmed via the shell:
$SYSTEM.Python.Shell() Python 3.9.5 (default, Mar 14 2023, 06:58:44) [MSC v.1927 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Type quit() or Ctrl-D to exit this shell. >>>
When Python evaluates an expression in the shell, it prints the result of the expression to the terminal.
>>> 1 + 2 3
It is quite easy to accidentally evaluate and print out values
>>> iris.cls("%Dictionary.Hi,
i got 2 server with iris instances on them:
srv1
irisinstance1 port 51773/52773
irisinstance2 port 51774/52774
srv2
irisinstance3 port 51773/52773
irisinstance4 port 51774/52774
Both of them have apps published on an external apache on port 443 and i would like to publish irisinstance1 and irisinstance2 on port 443 of srv2.
Something like https://srv2/mgmt1/csp/sys/UtilHome.csp and similar to mgmt2.
I've tried with proxypass without luck.
How can i do that? Is there a guide?
Thanks!

I want to connect IRIS system as it has all the database tables. on top of that I am creating a REST API in python. How can I connect to IRIS DB. here is my example code for connection
def connect():
connection_string = "localhost:1972/USER"
username = "_SYSTEM"
password = "SYS"
conn = iris.connect(connection_string, username, password)
after this connection is created but how can I get tables data. Please let me know more about how we can integrate IRIS database into a python REST API.
One of the most common needs of our clients is the creation of REST services that allow access to the information present in IRIS / HealthConnect. The advantage of these REST services is that it allows the development of custom user interfaces with the most current technologies taking advantage of the reliability and performance of IRIS in the back-end.
In today's article we are going to create a web service step by step that will allow us to both store data in our database and later consult them.

How to import Custom Schemas from VSCode? They look like this:

Query cache can be purged programmatically using the Purge* methods of the %SYSTEM.SQL class.
*For details of each method, please refer to the following documents.
① When deleting all query caches in the system
Do $SYSTEM.SQL.PurgeAllNamespaces()
② When deleting the query cache in the namespace
// delete all cached queries in namespace
Do $SYSTEM.SQL.Purge()
// when deleting the query cache specified by date
// the following deletes the cache not used in the last 30 days
Do $SYSTEM.SQL.
InterSystems is committed to providing a high quality developer experience including a great IDE (Integrated Developer Experience). For the past several years we have been evolving Visual Studio Code's ObjectScript tooling in parallel with our long-standing IDE, InterSystems Studio. There have been over 46,000 downloads of the VSCode-ObjectScript plugin, and the feedback from developers is that this is a great developer experience, and now superior to InterSystems Studio.
With our 2023.
Forgive me but our System Administrator who knows how the networking works is OOO...
How does IRIS know which local adapters are available to populate in an Inbound or Outbound TCP Adapter Object? We recently moved from HealthShare Health Connect 2018.1.3 to IRIS HealthShare Health Connect 2022.1. When we migrated we moved the VIP over to the new box and set it at the hardware level.

I am trying to write the module.xml for a package that creates a web application associated with the %SYS namespace.
I didn't find a way of specifying that the CSPApplication tag should create the app for a specific namespace. It apparently gets set up to use the namespace in which the package install command gets run. This contrasts with how an installer manifest works, where the <CSPApplication> tag is put inside a <Namespace> tag.
So I wondered if I could make my package fail installation if the current namespace isn't %SYS. My package doesn't need to load anything, only create the web app.

I wanted to share an observation about using PDFs with LangChain.
When loading the text out of a PDF, I noticed there was an artifact of gaps within some of the words extracted.
For example (highlighted in red)
Hello!
I would like to find all classes not up to date in a namespace programmatically.
With IRIS Studio, we can see the single "+", but I don't know how to do that with a script.
Set sql = "SELECT ID, Name FROM %Dictionary.ClassDefinition WHERE NOT ID %STARTSWITH ?"
Set params($Increment(params)) = "%"
Set tResult = ##class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirect(, sql, params...)
If (tResult.%SQLCODE'=0)&&(tResult.%SQLCODE'=100) Set sc = $$$ERROR($$$SQLError, tResult.%SQLCODE, tResult.%Message) Quit sc
While tResult.%Next() {
// if class not up to date ??
}If you ever wondered how to debug some requests that are being made to or from IRIS, well here is a little tutorial on how to do that.
During a complex project, usually you get the specifications and implement the communication between IRIS and other things based on that. But from the paper to the real world there's usually a huge gap and you need to know why you are receiving an error on a parameter, on a header, you are not receiving the data and so on.
1. Export API
a. Use $system.OBJ.Export() to specify individual routines to export. For example:
do $system.OBJ.Export("TEST1.mac,TEST2.mac","c:\temp\routines.xml",,.errors)The format to specify is routine name.extension, and the extension is mac, bas, int, inc, obj.
Errors during export are stored in errors.
See the class reference %SYSTEM.OBJ for details on $system.OBJ.Export().
b. Use $system.OBJ.Export() even when exporting with wildcards. For example:
*Before version 2008.1, use $system.
Last week at the InterSystems Global Summit, we announced our new Foreign Tables capability, which was introduced as an experimental feature with the 2023.1 release earlier this year. We're now inviting you to join the Early Access Program for Foreign Tables and kick the tires on this new capability, so you can let us know whether it suits your needs and what capabilities we should prioritize next.
So what are Foreign Tables, really?
InterSystems has corrected a defect that causes increased process memory usage.
Specifically, the increased consumption of local process partition memory occurs when executing $Order, $Query, or Merge on local variables. While this will have no detrimental impact for most running environments, environments that support a large number of processes or closely limit Maximum Per-Process Memory could be impacted. Some processes may experience <STORE> errors.
The defect exists in 2023.1.0.229.0 but it is reposted as 2023.1.0.235.
