Hello Everyone,
I’m excited to join the InterSystems Developer Community, a place where IRIS, Caché, Ensemble, HealthShare, and all things InterSystems come alive through shared knowledge and collaboration.

A little about me,

  • I’m here to learn from your real-world experiences, whether it’s tips on interoperability, performance tuning, or best practices across IRIS and HealthShare ecosystems.
  • I also look forwar

Any time a change is made to the configuration of a running Production, an update is needed to apply any changes in configuration or default settings to the running Production. This has historically been a manual step by the user. Now, if the CCR Client Tools cause a running Production to need update, the Production is updated automatically. This means users will no longer have to navigate to the Production Configuration page and click the 'Update Production' button every time they load an ItemSet. Additionally, this automatic Production update runs not only when deploying changes, but w

Hello Community,

I’d like to know how I can update my login email address from the profile section.

When I click the "Edit" option in my profile, it redirects me to login.intersystems.com. However, even on that page, I don’t see an option to edit the login email address. [unable to edit]

Could someone please guide me on how to change my login email?

Thanks in advance!

I have set up an ODBC driver for InterSystems and would like to set up a linked server. This all works except I cannot see the columns  details. If I access the database from excel I can get the columns and types of the various tables

Any help or instructions would be appreciated

Hi everyone,

I’ve set up a scheduled task in InterSystems IRIS to run every night at 2:00 AM, but it doesn’t seem to trigger consistently. Some nights it works as expected, but other times it just skips without any error in the logs.

The task is marked as enabled, and there are no conflicts in the Task Manager. I’ve double-checked the system time and time zone settings all looks fine.

Could it be a cache issue or something to do with system load?

Thanks!

It's a very personal story as a partner, as a competitor, as an employee,
as a customer and finally as an external observer of InterSystems.

Mirror Member

Hi ISC Experts,

I'm in the process of setting up InterSystems IRIS for HealthShare with database mirroring, and I’d appreciate some guidance around how to handle an existing ODBC connection in this new setup.

Scenario:

  • We currently have a system running IRIS for HealthShare that external systems connect to via ODBC (using a standard connection string with hostname and port).
  • We're now configuring mirroring on this system — it will become one of the mirror members (Primary/Backup).
  • The external system using ODBC will not be part of the mirror, but it needs to continue ac

Before we start with some intermediate and advanced topics, I would like to sum up some more general points. They are subjective, of course, so I will be happy to discuss them if you have other opinion or better arguments for any of them.

The list is not comprehensive and this is intended, cause I will cover some topics in future articles.

Tip 1. Follow official styleguide

Angular is quite strict in terms of limiting the possible architecture of an application, but there are still many places in it that allow you to do things your own way. The imagination of the developers is limitless, but so

For 15 over years I have been playing with ways to speed up the way I use InterSystems systems and technology via AutoHotkey scripting.  As a power keyboard user (I avoid my mouse when possible) I found it very helpful to set up hotkeys to get to my most frequently accessed systems and research utilities as quickly as possible.  While I have used this approach for many years, this is the first time that I am introducing my approach and a customer-facing hotkey script to the D.C. and OEx...

We're excited to announce the first-ever UI update for CCR Client Tools. The Client Tools UI has been upgraded to match the modern CCR UI, aiming to create a more seamless experience across both applications. The color scheme, fonts, and style elements have all been updated accordingly in the new UI:

All functionality has been preserved through the update, and the new changes are fully compatible with all major browsers, VSCode, and the legacy Studio IDE. For the best experience we recommend using VSCode or any modern browser, but Studio is still supported and will also reflect the new UI c
