Topic: Target and What in Provenance
Mohit Gir (Dec 24 2018 at 14:26):
Could someone explain the difference in target and what fields in Provenance resource type.

Lloyd McKenzie (Dec 24 2018 at 16:35):
target points to the resource version(s) created, updated, deleted, or otherwise processed by the event the Provenance is documenting. what refers to the resource that the target was derived from, is a revision of, quotes from, etc. Depending on the action, it might be appropriate to think of the "what" as a source, but that won't be true for all actions.

The ‚what’ might also point at a Binary Resource containing some non FHIR content, e.g if you derived your target resources from a V2 message, CDA document or other source.
