Topic: Guidance on posting a single resource as an operation
Eric Haas (Aug 22 2018 at 19:14):
For FHIR operations, there is guidance on returning a resource directly using a return parameter, but no guidance on POSTING a single resource without using the Parameters resource.
So if I have a single input parameter 'foo' that is resource Foo can I just do a:
POST .../operation-endpoint
payload = resource instance Foo
?

I thought we discussed this. I certainly do it in my implementations

"If, when invoking the operation, there is exactly one input parameter of type Resource (irrespective of whether other possible parameters are defined), that the operation can also be executed by a POST with that resource as the body of the request (and no parameters on the url)." (http://hl7.org/fhir/operations.html#request)
