0. Extension
Definition	Extension definition for Mapping between API and Profile. CapabilityStatement.rest.reosurce.profile has two different profile statements: profile - the overall system profile for a resource supportedProfile 0..* - a particular profile that the system supports What is missing from this picture is defining which resources conform to which profile. Sometimes, of course, it's impossible to define this, but quite often, there's an algorithmic relationship that a server or client could use to know that resources with a particular set of values will or should conform to a given profile. This extension defines a relationship between a search string and a profile. Any resource that meets a given search string will be expected to conform to the particular profile. This extension repeats, and order is important - once a match is found, this profile is the one that applies.

Definition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and managable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions.

Comments	There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions.
