what is the difference between these two operations: [base]/Patient/$everything and [base]/Patient/[id]/$everything?
Grahame Grieve (Dec 20 2016 at 11:43):
either way, you are returning all the information available about a single patient. In the second one, the client nominates the patient explicitly, and the server either does or doesn't allow it.
in the first, the client doesn't nominate any particular patient. It may be that the client's context on the server has a fixed patient (e.g. through a smart on fhir login), in which case the server knows which patient to serve - else, it has to return an error

@Grahame Grieve thank very much for your clear answer
