Topic: narrative in contained resource

Hi!
I have a quick question regarding narrative. I try to upload a Patient to the Smile server with a contained resource Organization. This contained Organization resource includes narrative:

...
"contained": [
        {
            "id": "Organization1",
            "resourceType": "Organization",
            "text": {
                "status": "generated",
                "div": "<div xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">Employer Description 1</div>"
            },
            "type": [
                {
                    "text": "EMP_1"
                }
            ],
            "name": "Employer Name 1"
        }
    ]
...

But when I post Patient resource with such Organization, the created record returned by the server does not include narrative:

...
"contained": [
    {
        "resourceType": "Organization",
        "id": "Organization1",
        "type": [
            {
                "text": "EMP_1"
            }
        ],
        "name": "Employer Name 1"
    }
]
...

No error is returned from the Smile server when posting. Fetching resource results in the same outcome, contained resource is returned without the narrative. So my question is if there are any constraints on the narrative in contained resources (I could not find any)? Or it is a bug on the Smiler server side? Thank you for your help in advance!

It's in here: http://hl7.org/fhir/domainresource-definitions.html#DomainResource.text
Contained resources do not have narrative.

René Spronk (Mar 24 2022 at 14:38):

The contents of the contained resources should be covered by the text of the containing resource.

Thanks a lot! I missed that.

I would also need the presentation as I am new to FHIR and supposed to be working on EHR FHIR integration project.

Note that there are lots of videos already publicly available that walk through different aspects of the FHIR spec - a web search should find them for you.

There used to be a rule to prevent contained resources having narrative, but I thought that was removed, to permit a contained narrative only resource to work.
