Python version compatible

#InterSystems IRIS for Health #Key Question #Python

Good morning,

I have a question about the python version, I read in the documentation that the compatible version is 3.9.5 for the proper functioning of python on Iris.

Do we have to stay on this version or can we use newer versions?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Product version: IRIS 2023.1

If you're using Python with IRIS through the traditional client/server model - such as DB-API driver or the NativeAPI, you can update from the minimum Python version.
If you're using embedded python (that is, Python running in-process with IRIS), then the version of Python you can use is tied to your OS and can't (yet) be upgraded.  They're listed here.  We are currently working on the ability to upgrade the Python runtime used by embedded python - expect to hear more about that soon.

Hello @Bob Kuszewski , 
Thank you for your reply,
I use embedded Python, 
I was asking this question because our infrastructure department has asked us to upgrade to a more recent version because our antivirus software has detected security flaws in this version.
