Hi all, i'm new to FHIR so excuse me if I ask the wrong question at the wrong place. I just wrote a piece of c# to check if a Resource conforms to a particular stucture definition:
public static bool ConformsTo(DomainResource resource, FhirUri uri)
{
if (resource?.Meta != null)
foreach (string p in resource.Meta.Profile)
if (p == uri.Value)
return true;
Log(EnumLogType.Warning, $"Resource doesn't conforms to {uri.Value}");
return false;
}
I use this to check if an organisation conforms to : http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-organization
This works but I also want to check if a particular Address resource conforms to: http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-address
The problem is: Address doesn't have a Meta parameter to check. Is there an other way to do this?

Hi @Martijn Hermans, please note that this only detects a profile conformance claim. To determine if the instance actually conforms, you need to run the validator.

Hi @Michel Rutten thanks. I wasn't even aware of the existence of a validator. I will look further into that!
I did realize I was only checking the claim. The code I showed is used to export FHIR data and the check is there predominantly to warn my colleagues (or myself) if I by accident passthe wrong profile to the function.
Does there exist something like a conformance claim for an address?

No, if the resource claims to conform to a certain profile that applies to all its content

Also note that many resources will comply with profiles you care about but won't claim conformance - because they don't know/care about your particular profile.

Has anyone ever connected a cds hook with their fhir app. I'm having trouble getting the actual request data to go with the app when the link is clicked. The link works and smart on fhir app works separately. However, prefetch data isn't moving to app.
