hi guys, hope you had a nice dev conf last week in amsterdam!

i got a question regarding bulk creation of resources. Is this covered by FHIR somehow? or does fhir strictly say, nope this is done in multiple create single resource requests? the resources are of the same type for the bulk creation.

maybe this? https://www.hl7.org/fhir/http.html#transaction

You might also look into all the capabilities of Bundle: https://www.hl7.org/fhir/bundle.html#using
and, depending on your use case, also: https://www.hl7.org/fhir/documents.html

Either transaction or batch could be relevant, depending on whether you want transactional behavior.
