Beta testers needed for our upcoming InterSystems EHR Reports Specialist certification exam

Hello InterSystems EHR community,

InterSystems Certification is currently developing a certification exam for InterSystems EHR Reports specialists, and if you match the exam candidate description given below, we would like you to beta test the exam! The exam will be available for beta testing starting June 30, 2025.

Please note, only candidates who have taken the TrakCare Reporting course are eligible to take the beta.  Interested in the beta but haven't completed the course? It's not too late - simply complete the online portion of the course before August 25th. Please see Required Training under Exam Details below for more information.

Beta testing will be completed September 1, 2025.

 

What are my responsibilities as a beta tester?

You will schedule and take the exam by September 1st. The exam will be administered in an online proctored environment free of charge (the standard fee of $150 per exam is waived for all beta testers). The InterSystems Certification team will then perform a careful statistical analysis of all beta test data to set a passing score for the exam. The analysis of the beta test results will take 6-8 weeks, and once the passing score is established, you will receive an email notification from InterSystems Certification informing you of the results. If your score on the exam is at or above the passing score, you will have earned the certification!

Overview

This release introduces significant enhancements to security, analytics capabilities, and user experience, along with important operational improvements aimed at reducing downtime and improving reliability.


New Features and Enhancements

Category Feature / Improvement Details
Analytics Adaptive Analytics in Data Fabric Studio InterSystems Data Fabric Studio now includes Adaptive Analytics as an optional feature, offering advanced analytics capabilities directly within your workflow.
Security    Enhanced Firewall Management Firewall management page now supports creating explicit inbound and outbound firewall rules specifically for port 22, providing greater security and access control.
Custom APIs Security Update Custom APIs have transitioned from ID tokens to access tokens, strengthening security by improving authentication mechanisms.
Enforcement of HTTPS for Custom APIs Custom APIs no longer support HTTP; all communication is now exclusively over HTTPS, ensuring encrypted and secure data transmission.
General Security Improvements Multiple security enhancements applied, reinforcing the security posture across the platform.
User Experience New Feature Announcements and Widgets Additional widgets have been introduced to effectively communicate new features, announcements, and important updates directly within the Cloud Service Portal.
Operations Improved Timezone Change Performance

Downtime associated with the timezone-change operation on prod environments significantly reduced from approximately 2 minutes to about 15 seconds, minimizing impact on operations.


Recommended Actions

  • Explore Adaptive Analytics within Data Fabric Studio to enhance your data-driven decision-making capabilities.
  • Review firewall settings to leverage the new inbound/outbound port 22 rules. The first deploy you perform will define the rules. Make sure to review the outbound rules.

Accessing Response Content in %CSP.REST Before Writing to Output Buffer

Hello Community,

When handling a %CSP.REST API response for a custom endpoint, how can I capture or access the response content before it is written to the output buffer and sent through the Web Gateway to the UI?

In manually created REST services (for example, with a route like:<Route Url="/test" Method="POST" Call="User.Sample:Test" Cors="true"/> ),
the response is typically written from within any class method in the execution flow.

Is there a way to intercept or log the response content before it is sent to the client?

Thanks!
