The first part of this article provides all the background information. It also includes links to the DATATYPE_SAMPLE database, which you can use to follow along with the examples.

In that section, we explored an error type ("Access Failure") that is easy to detect, as it immediately triggers a clear error message when attempting to read the data via the database driver.

The errors discussed in this section are more subtle and harder to detect. I’ve referred to them as “Silent Corruption” and “Undetected Mutation”

We are trying to mark a hl7 nack as "completed" to ignore an error and not generate the alert. 

We can remove from adding a managed alert or add another router in 

When Nack of CR of 

Date of birth in PID.7 must not be empty

We tried via this but i think it's only for an actual IRIS alert errror not the HL7 error code/description 

E*Date of birth in PID.7 must not be empty=C,:?CR=C,:?R=RF,:?E=S,:~=S,:?A=C,:*=S,:I?=W,:T?=C

What is TLS?

TLS, the successor to SSL, stands for Transport Layer Security and provides security (i.e. encryption and authentication) over a TCP/IP connection. If you have ever noticed the "s" on "https" URLs, you have recognized an HTTP connection "secured" by SSL/TLS. In the past, only login/authorization pages on the web would use TLS, but in today's hostile internet environment, best practice indicates that we should secure all connections with TLS.

Why use TLS?

Hi all,

Let's do some more work about the testing data generation and export the result by REST API.😁

Here, I would like to reuse the datagen.restservice class which built in the pervious article Writing a REST api service for exporting the generated patient data in .csv

This time, we are planning to generate a FHIR bundle include multiple resources for testing the FHIR repository.

Here is some reference for you, if you want to know mare about FHIR The Concept of FHIR: A Healthcare Data Standard Designed for the Future

OK... Let's start😆

I have an API set up in IRIS which is secured using an IRIS authentication service, so there is a bearer token being passed down in the request header.

I've already set Parameter HandleCorsRequest = 1; on the spec class and All the endpoints I am have (a mix of GET, POST, PATCH and DELETE) are working from postman without issue, the problem is when consuming from the web front-end and the preflight checks the browser instigates. Most of the endpoints work in the browser, but some are triggering the preflight (OPTIONS) check causing the CORS issue.

This is what I am seeing in the browser:-

Hi,

I’m working in Ensemble and trying to resend a message from the Message Viewer. The message is in XML format.

When I try to edit the XML before resending,

• I open the message in the Message Viewer.
• I click Resend or Edit & Resend.

I’m looking for guidance on:

1. How to make a message editable in Message Viewer.
2. The proper way to modify an XML message before resending in Ensemble/IRIS.

Any suggestions or examples would be very helpful.

$System.Util.GetEnviron("USERPROFILE") returns "C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile". I don't know what that is, but that folder doesn't even exist. The correct value which I need is "C:\Users\robert.steed", as seen via the Windows command line "set" command.

Hello all,

I'm trying to build a cube based on a linked table but seems that IRIS is not able to do it :O

Long story short, I have a linked table in IRIS that sources a Microsoft SQL table (using standard linked feature from the portal). It works fine, I can access it using SQL as many other times. On top of that, I've created in DeepSee (ok, Analytics) a cube that uses this class as source. It compiles correctly, no errors given. When I build it with 100 records, all goes well and using Analyzer I can see results.

Hi,

  We have some concerns on how to implement FHIR, do we do facade?, how do we get resources?, what is a resource?, is a resource "Patient" or an instance of a patient?, How can we have a FHIR repository AND send the patient details to healthshare MPI?

  Has anyone correctly created a FHIR server that has custom methods?, handles "normal" methods and forwards onto Healthshare MPI , processing the response and creates a accurate FHIR response back to the calling system.

Hi experts

I'm trying to configure an IRIS ODBC connection with "Windows NT authentication using the network login ID". I have created the System DSN as below:

and user (PROD\test) in the SQL Gateway connection 

However, as the error message suggests, IRIS is trying to connect with PROD\svc_mist, rather than PROD\test configured above. 

Is there anyway to configure the ODBC connection with specified account with Windows Auth method? 

I was facing the same issue as Jerry faced when connecting IRIS to SQL server. My ODBC connection is configured to authenticate via windows authentication.

Folks!

Recently I found several one-line long ObjectScript commands on DC and think that it'd be great not to lose it and to collect more!

So I decided to gather a few first cases, put in one OEX project, and share them with you!

And here is how you can use them.

1. Create client SSL configuration.

set $namespace="%SYS", name="DefaultSSL" do:'##class(Security.SSLConfigs).Exists(name) ##class(Security.SSLConfigs).Create(name)

Useful if you need to read content from an URL.

Don't forget to return to a previous namespace. Or add 

n $namespace

Hi community.
I have a query:

SELECT
nameField,
dateField,
anotherDateField
FROM
(      
SELECTMIN(someDate) as dateField,       
nameField,
anotherDateField
FROM $$$SOURCEWHERE $$$RESTRICT               
GROUPby someOtherField    
)
WHERE dateField >= anotherDateField

This query should filter the data by the minimum value of the somDate field, but it doesn't. It displays all values ​​together, regardless of the external filter. The exact same query (without the $$$ tokens, of course) works fine in a regular SQL runtime.
My guess is that the $$$RESTRICT does this

If you start with InterSystems ObjectScript, you will meet the XECUTE command.
And beginners may ask: Where and Why may I need to use this ?

The official documentation has a rich collection of code snippets. No practical case.
Just recently, I met a use case that I'd like to share with you.

The scenario:

When you build an IRIS container with Docker, then, in most cases,
you run the  initialization script  

iris session iris < iris.script 

How do I take SVG data to be an image in Logi Reports? Now I can take JPG data and render it in Logi Reports. And I can take the SVG data in ObjectScript, but when I view it in Logi Reports, it won't appear. How do I get the code in ObjectScript to appear and be read in Logi Reports?

Real Time FHIR® to OMOP Transformation

This part of the OMOP Journey,  we reflect before attempting to challenge Scylla on how fortunate we are that InterSystems OMOP transform is built on the Bulk FHIR Export as the source payload.  This opens up hands off interoperability with the InterSystems OMOP transform across several FHIR® vendors, this time with the Google Cloud Healthcare API.

According to the Documentation  EnsLib.Workflow.TaskRequest has the following fields...

• %Action
• %Command
• %FormFields
• %FormTemplate
• %FormValues
• %Message
• %Priority
• %Subjext
• %TaskHandler
• %Title
• %UserName

I want to be able to capture the Source, Session ID, and any other Identifiers outside of the Error so it will show up on the Task List.

I am struggling how to build a csp template for me to be able to capture additional fields to send to the Workflow Operation.

New Features and Enhancements 

Hi everyone, 

Does anyone know how to export projects via VSC? 

I opened the project through the "InterSystems Tools" plugin (command is "Edit Code in Project") and I can correctly work on it.

However, when I try using the "ObjectScript" plugin to export the project (right click on the project -> "Export Project Contents")

This message appears and it is not possible to export the project:

I've tried also to open a new window, then a folder and finally the project, but nothing changes. 

This is an example of my workspace: 

Anyone knows how to do it? 

Thank you!

Here is an option for your headspace if you are designing an multi-cluster architecture and the Operator is an FTE to the design.  You can run the Operator from a central Kubernetes cluster (A), and point it to another Kubernetes cluster (B), so that when the apply an IrisCluster to B the Operator works remotely on A and plans the cluster accordingly on B.  This design keeps some resource heat off the actual workload cluster, spares us some serviceaccounts/rbac and gives us only one operator deployment to worry about so we can concentrate on the IRIS workloads.

I am regularly contacted by customers about memory sizing when they get alerts that free memory is below a threshold, or they observe that free memory has dropped suddenly. Is there a problem? Will their application stop working because it has run out of memory for running system and application processes? Nearly always, the answer is no, there is nothing to worry about. But that simple answer is usually not enough. What's going on?

Hi all,

This is a quick tip about how to use case insensitive URL in REST API.

If you have a class that extends from %CSP.REST and Ens.BusinessService, to create a REST API service, and you have defined your WebApplication in lowercase

XData UrlMap [ XMLNamespace = "http://www.intersystems.com/urlmap" ]
{
<Routes>
    <Route Url="/user" Method="POST" Call="User"/>
    <Route Url="/login" Method="POST" Call="Login"/>
</Routes>
}

Only accepts the url in lowercase, i.e. http://myserver/myproduction/user

If you have any uppercase character, the url doesn't work. http://MyServer/MyProduction/user

It's been a while since the new UI for Productions and DTL was published as a preview and I would like to know your opinions about it.

WARNING: This is a personal opinion, totally personal and not related with InterSystems Corporation.

I'm going to start with the Interoperabilty screen:

The style is sober and without frills, following the line of cloud services design, I like it.

Introduction

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review, you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.   
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.   
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.   
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

I also placed a bunch of Pull Requests on GitHub when I found a problem I could fix.    
Some were accepted and merged, and some were just ignored.     
So if you made a major change and expect a changed review, just let me know.

Hi,

I'm trying to run some scripting in Windows. I'm using an instance of the IRISHealth community. 

I'm just trying to run a simple sequence of commands so I can run irissession in a non-interactive mode, like:

irissession.exe IRISHEALTH -U "%SYS" < "myprogram.iris"

set$namespace="%SYS"set cbk = "C:\Test1.cbk"set log = "C:\Test1.log"w$$BACKUP^DBACK("","F","MyBackup",cbk,"Y",log,"NOINPUT","Y","Y", 1000, "Test1")
HALT

The execution starts, but then gets completely hung, I see infinitely:

Hello. I need to transform a message
