Hi All,
What is the correct way to represent an agent in AuditEvent?
Can any one suggest me.
Thanks.
John Moehrke (Jan 29 2019 at 15:04):
Can you explain more clearly what your case is? Have you looked at the examples?
Vanitha (Jan 30 2019 at 05:17):
Yes @John Moehrke , I have gone through the examples. In those, the agent is getting from 2 ways.
Can you please explain - how the agent is getting and about requestor, network?
John Moehrke (Jan 30 2019 at 12:30):
I am happy to explain, but I am unclear on what your question is. Are you asking "How does the .agent element get populated when recording an AuditEvent?" Are you asking "How to record a specific kind of agent identity into the .agent element?" I need help on understanding your use-case, and situation.
John Moehrke (Jan 30 2019 at 12:45):
are you asking about how to fill out an AuditEvent when recording some event? or are you asking about how to understand events that have been recorded by some other system?
Vanitha (Jan 30 2019 at 12:47):
We are creating AuditEvent for CURD operations on FHIR resources. For that,how to fill .agent element when recording some event?

How to record a specific kind of agent identity into the .agent element?
John Moehrke (Jan 30 2019 at 13:12):
are what kind of an identity do you have for the agent?
John Moehrke (Jan 30 2019 at 13:13):
sounds like you are trying to record an AuditEvent on the server side, not the client side?
John Moehrke (Jan 30 2019 at 13:16):
In theory both sides of a communication should record their own perspective of the event into indepenedent AuditEvent. It is harder for the server to know full information, so it would record what it knows. server side audits tend to be less complete due to the lack of ability for the server to know the full context of the event, as it is only participating in a CRUD event. Where as the client side tends to know more about the context around the CRUD event it is requesting.
