Topic: SupportedProfile and profile

Hey everyone,
I got a question about multiple profile support and how the CapabilityStatement should look like. I have 4 profiles, which extend and restrict the Communication resource differently. The CapabilityStatement holds the 4 mentioned profiles in the supportedProfiles field for resource of type Communication. But I am wondering about the profile field (which would be the superset of all 4 profiles).
Should there be a 5th profile (the superset) defined or can it be left empty, when a resource will fit only one profile at a time (so no superset resource is ever created)?

it's up to you, really. We haven't made rules because any of the possible combinations may be most appropriate in some circumstances. I would counsel you to do what makes most sense for the consumers in your case but it can be hard to tell what that is

@Grahame Grieve Thank you for clarifying.
