Topic: Inter-element referencing

I have troubles finding any documentation re inter-element referencing, could someone please point me the right direction?

Do you mean reuse of structure definitions (e.g., in Bundle, Bundle.link is reused) or do you mean pointing at an element within a resource (e.g., reference to Patient.name.given)?
Halina Labikova (Mar 19 2020 at 20:07):
The second case - pointing at an element within a resource. From my prelim research it looks like the exact path cannot be defined in the StructureDefinition, I just need to throw the id value into a valueString, but I can't find any formal documentation regarding this.

Looks (from here) that there is a standard extension which can be used: profile-element. Is that what you are looking for?

That helps, thank you!
