Topic: Profiling - recursive profile dependency
Stine Johansen (Sep 11 2020 at 06:23):
Hi, I'm working on a set of profiles in the medication module, when adding profiles for references, I'm getting a "Recursive profile dependency detected" when opening the profiles in Forge, and the profiles wont render on Simplifier.
The resources are MedicinalProduct and MedicinalProductPackaged, in R4, they are both referncing each other, and I wanted to specify my profiles on the reference.

Can anyone help on this issue?

not sure if this is the issue, but try using targetProfile instead of profile to specify the required profiles on the references, targetProfile is used when the reference needs to be resolved first.
So by not using it and using profile instead Forge might think you want an inline resource, which assuming they are required elements would make an infinite resource instance

This was definitely the issue, thank you!
