This is the base Capability Statement for FHIR. It
represents a server that supports SMART on FHIR authorization for
access, it declares support for automated discovery of OAuth2 endpoints in its
CapabilityStatement using the OAuth Uri extension on the
rest.security
element (or, when using FHIR DSTU2, the
Conformance.rest.security
element). Any time a client sees this
extension, it must be prepared to authorize using SMART’s OAuth2-based
protocol.
None of the other functionality defined by FHIR is represented in this Capability Statement. It is provided to use as a template for system designers to build their own Capability Statements from. Since a capability statement has to contain something, this contains a read of a Capability Statement
