Topic: How to get List entry items from FHIRServer.

Hi,
I am trying to get List entry items from server.
Currently I am preparing an url with id's from entry reference array (Getting id from each reference and appending to URL String). Make request to server based on url string.
Instead of doing this can we have any other way to get all entries (resources) from List.
Please suggest correct way.
Thanks in Advance.

Given a List id (e.g. https://server/List/123) you can do a search for https://server/List?_id=123&_include=List:item

Thank you Josh Mandel.
In this response all items will come in single Request or do I need to make Pagination request if entries have more than 500?

It will depend on the server - servers can establish their own page limits

Can we get few elements from the item resource instead of getting whole resource?
Ex: if item is Patient (Can we get name , contact, gender)

Look at _summary and _elements

or GraphQl

Is GraphQL available in 3.0?

No it's not . Thanks for pointing that out.

There is also a special searchparameter for this purpose: _list (http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/fhir/search.html#list)
