Recently i've been using Restforms2 to create a CRUD API for a project. But it lacks some advanced functionality that we need, so we have created a production with a REST WS which handles those advanced methods. That works great but there's a drawback, it does not have authentication.
I would want to use the same authentication method as Restforms2 which is a basic auth using IRIS users and passwords.
The power of the presented tool becomes visible with a large JSON file. The example I have prepared is composed of the daily results of AoC 2023. Anonymization makes it usable for demo purposes.
The similarity between JSON objects + arrays and Globals in IRIS or Caché is evident. With small and medium size JSON objects navigation across %Dynamic Objects is comfortable. But with large and/or deep cascaded objects it becomes a challenge.
The presented tool offers 3 variants
loading an already existing %Dyamic object or Array into a global of your choice
loading a %Stream containing a JSON object into a global of your choice
loading an external File containing a JSON object into a global of your choice

Is there a way to read JSON and transform it (in DTL) by using a VDOC of this JSON (without transform it to internal message) like I can do with HL7 or XML?
If it possible, I guess that I should have a schema of the JSON so the second question is how to build a schema for JSON and load it to the IRIS?
I know json does not impose any order, but for readability I would like to insert a json property at a specific location at the start of a %DynamicObject, not at the end. Is there a known way to do that (other than string manipulation)?
I know what you are thinking... a new feature for ZEN.proxyObject...? NOW..???
In Spain we say that better late than never ;-)
Have you ever need to send a numeric attribue of a Json in String format?
Did you go crazy casting class objects with fixed typed properties?
Lucky you!!
With this new feature I propose a way to continue working with our loved dynamic object %ZEN.proxyObject, being able to choose whether or not we want to send numeric attributes in String format.
I have a REST Service that I want it to receive a json string request I have set up my URLMap as follows the top URL when populated and requested works fine but I would like my request to be a json string and that is not working I am getting a 500 error am I missing something please advice.
This is a detailed guide to develop RESTful services using InterSystems Ensemble. The goal of this guide is to make you understanding the basic concept and building blocks of a RESTful service. The service is going to provide a very basic functionality (a “Hello world!”).
You will learn how to create required components as Ensemble classes, configure the run-time as an Ensemble Production and create a service configuration as a web application.
I am receiving a JSON File as Stream container Using pRequest As Ens.StreamContainer and output as Output pResponse As %Persistent in a Custom Business Operation
I'm fairly new to ObjectScript/Ensemble and I'm sure I may be fundamentally misunderstanding how the %JSONImport/%JSONExport and XDATA mapping work and I was hoping you good folks could help me out. I'm essentially trying to create an object that I can use to translate from one JSON schema to another.
I'd like to briefly announce three new packages, available on the Open Exchange / through ZPM, that can really help accelerate modern full-stack application development on IRIS. I announced all of these in a Global Summit session last week, but you may have missed it - and I hear there's a full-stack application development contest coming up!
This package offers a utility to export an XLarge Global into a JSON object file and to show or import it again. In a previous example, this all was processed in memory. But if this is a large Global you may either experience <MAXSTRING> or an <STORE> error if the generated JSON structure exceeds available memory.
The property is used for storing a string of JSON data however in some cases we get a Cache error: %SaveData error when trying to save a string of JSON a lot less than maximum "allowed" length, any ideas anyone?
I have created a package that offers a utility to load a Global into JSON object and reverse to create a Global from this type of JSON object. Compact refers to the structure created. Globals nodes are included with data for a fast data load. But also the related code is quite compact.
I am having trouble formatting %Time to a JSON format. I have tried configuring the parameter "FORMAT" of my property but that didn't work. For some reason, it keeps putting a Z and the end of the time.

I have created a package to export a Global into JSON object file and to re-create it by reloading from this file embeddedPython refers to the new available technologies. It should be understood as a learning exercise of how to handle the language interfaces. Only Global nodes containing data are presented in the generated JSON file. Differently from the previous example, this one is using embedded Python only, no ObjectScript. Therefore PURE
