#InterSystems IRIS for Health

Hello Community,

When I run the following code with x undefined in terminal, it throws a syntax error and returns control to the program stack. After issuing a GO command, execution continues, and setting the global variable ^zz1.

code 1:

test.mac
if$Data(@x@(a,b,c)) {
    set^zz1=1212
}
write !,1212,!
////orif$Data(@x@(a,b,c)) set^zz1=1212write !,1212,!

 if I assign the result of $D(@x@(a,b,c)) to a local variable like d using set d=$D(@x@(a,b,c)), and then use if d { ... }, the code fails(global is not set) working as expected.

Code 2

I'm trying to deploy a python/flask application to an Iris4Health container (2025.1) but running into some issues with packages and where they should be installed. 

We’re issuing a point release for InterSystems IRIS, IRIS for Health, and Health Connect 2025.1 — version 2025.1.0.225.1 — to address a critical interoperability issue affecting users who leverage System Default Setting enabled business hosts.

⏯  Streamlining Electronic Prior Authorizations with FHIR

I'm creating a Business Process that:

1. Transforms one object into another using DTL
2. Sends this object to an operation
3. Transform the object obtained in first point into another one using DTL
4. Sends the second object to an operation

The Business Process is created with BPL, and objects are stored in BP context. When I execute this Process, in the 3rd point the object obtained in first transformation doesn't exist. It's empty.

I have tried to make transformation before making CALL's, I mean:

i got a particular application where i want that a user could only write to a DB without the reading permission. is this possible?

Hi all,

I'm exited to announce a GitHub Action to do direct deploy code from a github repository direct to a IRIS Instance.

Pleas visit https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/Github-Action-IRIS-Deployer

Over the past couple of months, I have been working on the SMART on FHIR EHR Launch to test the capabilities of IRIS for Health using two open-source apps from CSIRO: SMART-EHR-Launcher and SMART Forms App. This journey has been incredibly interesting, and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to work on this task and explore more of IRIS for Health’s potential.

For background, I've developed code that relies on %JSON.Adaptor functionality across an entire package of classes in our codebase. In regenerating these classes with %JSON.Adaptor as a superclass, I've encountered compilation errors from the JSON adaptor generators in certain classes, triggered by certain property types or parameters that are incompatible.

Hello Community,

Is it possible to retrieve/find all the names of subroutines, procedures, or functions from a deployed routine?. in the routine below, how can I extract names like x2 and execsql? I’ve just tried using openId on %RoutineMgr  but it didn’t help.

xdeploy.mac
xdeploy
 quit
x2 ; test1write123q
execsql(sql) ; test2Set tResult = ##Class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirect(,sql)
 Return tResult

Thanks

Developing with InterSystems Objects and SQL – In PersonJune 9-13, 2025

We are attempting to send HL7 messages over to CBOARD NetMenu over HTTP using SSL. We set this up using the EnsLib.HL7.Operation.HTTPOperation adapter. When we attempt to send the message we are receiving 

MSH|^~\&|||DIETOE|A6M0|202505131437||ACK^HTTP^415|00|P|2.1 MSA|AE|9165602|HTTP (N)ACK 'HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type'

The vendor mentioned something about putting a SOAP/XML wrapper around the HL7 message but isn't that what the HTTPOperation adapter does? Why would we be getting Unsupported Media Type. How would we go about setting the Media Type for the HTTP HL7 message?

Hello Community,

I executed the below query in the %ZLANGC00.mac routine. It returns results when using dynamic SQL, but not with embedded SQL(returns 0). 

 &SQL(SELECTcount(*) INTO :Cnt FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE='BASE TABLE'")
 Write "SQLTablecount : "_Cnt,!
 Set tResultSet = ##class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirect(,"SELECTcount(*) FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE='BASE TABLE'")
 Do tResultSet.%Display()

Thanks!

Hi Community,

I recently needed to interrogate some folders/sub-folders to retrieve filenames using cache object script(COS) and I implemented it in the following way.

I am running into an issue where a JSON response is missing keys...

{
    "count": 0,
    "pageInformation": {
        "offset": 0,
        "size": 10
    },
    "items": []
}

Within the JSON response I am only looking for two fields portalUrl and portalId. I have tried using $LENGTH and %IsDefined to check if they are valued but neither work. 

Hello Community,

I'm trying to use the assign option within a ruleset. I can trace the value with no issues but when I try to assign the same value to a variable of Namespace I get an error.
Ideally I would like to use a variable instead of repeating the Piece repeatedly throughout the rules.
Ruleset

When AMD published the x86-64 standard in 1999, little did they know they were inventing what would become the de-facto architecture for server CPUs.  But the CPUs of today aren’t the same as ones produced 20 years back – as they have extensions for everything from Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) to Hardware-Assisted Virtualization (VT-d).

⏯  How Project BEST Transforms FDA Adverse Event Reporting with FHIR

We are receiving an ORU message and the vendor is requesting that we append a new OBX segment at the end of the message and I wanted to reach out to see what options might be available. 

So far, I tried the append action in the DTL editor with a single OBX-3 field but it seems to be appending to the field directly instead of creating a new OBX. I've started looking into if whether I could use a function but wanted to first check with the experts on the Discussion here in case there's an easier way to accomplish this. Thank you. 

I am trying to replicate a REST call that I am able to make via a Postman call within a EnsLib.REST.GenericOperation.

It's been a while since I have messed around with trying to make external REST calls. When I execute my REST call, tSC is coming back with an error and I am trying to pinpoint why. I tried turning on ISCLOG = 5 but when calling the REST Operation from the Testing tool it is not logging anything to the ISC log.

It helps to remove special characters, such as non-utf-8 characters either control characters or unicode characters from text that is not printable or can't be parsed by downstream systems.

There is also $C(32) in this condition; sometimes NBSP appears in the text and it will not be recognized by TIE, but downstream it displays as "?".

In order to avoid the NBSP issue, the if condition is replaced with a space in order to prevent the error.

Unicode characters only Remove:

Epic had changed some of their logic on their Incoming Radiology Results which now require an Ordering Provider even though it is supposed to account for it within the Epic Interface settings.

I was wondering if we are using a custom schema if there was a way to default a value into OBR:16 if it was not valued without having to modify all the DTL's for these Results.

Is there a way to set this via the schema editor or in the background so we don't have to create/update DTL's or create a custom TCP Operation Class??

Hello Community,

I have a queue that I need to traverse and perform operations on. To distribute the workload across multiple processes, I used a Work Queue Manager do process and I'm not expecting any status from it So, I skipped Sync / WaitForComplete in my implementation

An extension “extends” or enhances a FHIR resource or a data element in a custom way. The extension can be added to the root of a resource, such as “Patient.ethnicity” in US Core profile, and they can be added to individual elements such as HumanName, Address or Identifier.

Did you know that you can also add an extension to a primitive data type?

Primitives usually store a single item and are the most basic element in FHIR. For example: "Keren", false, 1234, 12/08/2024 etc.

For example, the patient resources might look like this:

Hi all,

I'm reviewing an older Cache routine and came across this line of code: from file ^ZDBKCRON

S $ZT="^%ETSDK"

Error trap

/home/oper/script/cache_db_backup -t        # Daily CacheDB Backup

 produced the following output:

 <NOROUTINE> *%ETSDK
<ERRTRAP>

From what I understand, this is setting up an error trap, but I'm not entirely clear on how it works, especially in modern InterSystems IRIS environments.

Could someone please help explain:

Now I see this:

RabbitMQ is a message broker that allows producers (those who send a data message) and consumers (those who receive a data message) to establish asynchronous, real-time, and high-performance massive data flows. RabbitMQ supports AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol), an open standard application layer protocol. 
The main reasons to employ RabbitMQ include the following:
