Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the CapabilityStatement resource.

CapabilityStatement
Definition

A Capability Statement documents a set of capabilities (behaviors) of a FHIR Server that may be used as a statement of actual server functionality or a statement of required or desired server implementation.

CapabilityStatement.url
Definition

An absolute URI that is used to identify this capability statement when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance. This SHALL be a URL, SHOULD be globally unique, and SHOULD be an address at which this capability statement is (or will be) published. The URL SHOULD include the major version of the capability statement. For more information see Technical and Business Versions.

Control0..1
Typeuri
Requirements

Allows the capability statement to be referenced by a single globally unique identifier.

Summarytrue
Comments

Can be a urn:uuid: or a urn:oid:, but real http: addresses are preferred. Multiple instances may share the same url if they have a distinct version.

CapabilityStatement.version
Definition

The identifier that is used to identify this version of the capability statement when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value managed by the capability statement 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.

NoteThis is a business versionId, not a resource version id (see discussion)
Control0..1

Control0..1
Typemarkdown
Comments

This description can be used to capture details such as why the capability statement was built, comments about misuse, instructions for clinical use and interpretation, literature references, examples from the paper world, etc. It is not a rendering of the capability statement as conveyed in the 'text' field of the resource itself. This item SHOULD be populated unless the information is available from context (e.g. the language of the profile is presumed to be the predominant language in the place the profile was created). This does not need to be populated if the description is adequately implied by the software or implementation details.

Summarytrue
CapabilityStatement.acceptUnknown
Definition

A code that indicates whether the application accepts unknown elements or extensions when reading resources.

Control1..1
Terminology BindingUnknownContentCode (Required)
Typecode
Summarytrue
Comments

Unknown elements in a resource can only arise as later versions of the specification are published, because this is the only place where such elements can be defined. Hence accepting unknown elements is about inter-version compatibility.

Applications are recommended to accept unknown extensions and elements ('both'), but this is not always possible.

CapabilityStatement.format
Definition

A list of the formats supported by this implementation using their content types.

Control1..*
Terminology BindingMimeType :
Typecode
Summarytrue
Comments

"xml", "json" and "ttl" are allowed, which describe the simple encodings described in the specification (and imply appropriate bundle support). Otherwise, mime types are legal here.

CapabilityStatement.patchFormat
Definition

A list of the patch formats supported by this implementation using their content types.

Control0..*
Terminology BindingMimeType :
Typecode
Summarytrue
Comments

At present, the patch mime types application/json-patch+json and application/xml-patch+xml are legal. Generally, if a server supports PATCH, it would be expected to support the patch formats and match the formats it supports, but this is not always possible or necessary.

CapabilityStatement.implementationGuide
Definition

A list of implementation guides that the server does (or should) support in their entirety.

Control0..*
Typeuri
Summarytrue
CapabilityStatement.profile
Definition

A list of profiles that represent different use cases supported by the system. For a server, "supported by the system" means the system hosts/produces a set of resources that are conformant to a particular profile, and allows clients that use its services to search using this profile and to find appropriate data. For a client, it means the system will search by this profile and process data according to the guidance implicit in the profile. See further discussion in Using Profiles.

Control0..*
TypeReference(StructureDefinition)
Summarytrue
Comments

Supported profiles are different than the profiles that apply to a particular resource in rest.resource.profile. The resource profile is a general statement of what features of the resource are supported overall by the system - the sum total of the facilities it supports. A supported profile is a deeper statement about the functionality of the data and services provided by the server (or used by the client). A typical case is a laboratory system that produces a set of different reports - this is the list of types of data that it publishes. A key aspect of declaring profiles here is the question of how the client converts knowledge that the server publishes this data into working with the data; the client can inspect individual resources to determine whether they conform to a particular profile, but how does it find the ones that does? It does so by searching using the profile parameter, so any resources listed here must be valid values for the profile resource (using the identifier in the target profile). Typically, supported profiles cross resource types to describe a network of related resources, so they are listed here rather than by resource. However, they do not need to describe more than one resource.

CapabilityStatement.rest
Definition

A definition of the restful capabilities of the solution, if any.

Control0..*
Summarytrue
Comments

Multiple repetitions allow definition of both client and/or server behaviors or possibly behaviors under different configuration settings (for software or requirements statements).

Requirements

REST allows a degree of variability in the implementation of RESTful solutions that is useful for exchange partners to be aware of.

CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.versioning
Definition

This field is set to no-version to specify that the system does not support (server) or use (client) versioning for this resource type. If this has some other value, the server must at least correctly track and populate the versionId meta-property on resources. If the value is 'versioned-update', then the server supports all the versioning features, including using e-tags for version integrity in the API.

Control0..1
Terminology BindingResourceVersionPolicy (Required)
Typecode
Comments

If a server supports versionIds correctly, it SHOULD support vread too, but is not required to do so.

CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.readHistory
Definition

A flag for whether the server is able to return past versions as part of the vRead operation.

Control0..1
Typeboolean
Comments

It is useful to support the vRead operation for current operations, even if past versions aren't available.

CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.updateCreate
Definition

A flag to indicate that the server allows or needs to allow the client to create new identities on the server (e.g. that is, the client PUTs to a location where there is no existing resource). Allowing this operation means that the server allows the client to create new identities on the server.

Control0..1
Typeboolean
Comments

Allowing the clients to create new identities on the server means that the system administrator needs to have confidence that the clients do not create clashing identities between them. Obviously, if there is only one client, this won't happen. While creating identities on the client means that the clients need to be managed, it's much more convenient for many scenarios if such management can be put in place.

CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.conditionalCreate
Definition

A flag that indicates that the server supports conditional create.

Control0..1
