FHIR Extensions Pack
5.1.0 - 5.1.0 (April 2024) International flag

This page is part of the FHIR Core Extensions Registry (v5.1.0: Release 5.1) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) v5.0.0. This is the current published version. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Extension: ArtifactVersion

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/artifact-version Version: 5.1.0
Standards status: Trial-use Maturity Level: 2 Responsible: HL7 International / Clinical Decision Support Computable Name: ArtifactVersion
Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.5.1768

The identifier that is used to identify this version of the artifact when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value managed by the artifact author and is not expected to be globally unique. For example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed version is not available. There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in a lexicographical sequence.

This extension is defined to support representing artifact metadata on resources that are not already canonical resources that have the corresponding element, and that behave in a definitional way. For example, it would not be appropriate to use this extension on a patient-specific resource such as MedicationRequest or CarePlan.
