Hi all. not sure if this is the best/correct place to ask this, but I was recommended to check this place out so:
I'm investigating Ontoserver and have a question about the Admin API (which I believe isn't, in fact, FHIR so I might indeed be in the wrong place!)
I'm struggling with the API endpoints documented here: http://ontoserver.csiro.au/ontoserver/docs/resource_AdminResource.html#path__admin_addLoinc.html
and here http://ontoserver.csiro.au:8080/ontoserver/ui/#!/AdminResource.json/indexLoinc_post_3
but I'm not having any luck making calls to them, either to the csiro sandbox in the second link, or to a docker version successfully hosted & running on an Ubuntu VM. All the FHIR API calls are working marvellously, using both Snapper and Postman, but when I attempt to use Postman to interact with the Admin API, I have success with the GETs, but not the POSTs (including, but not limited to, addLoinc). I'm getting a 405 method not allowed returned, both in the csiro sandbox, and VM/docker hosted instance.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, or even a point in the right direction, as there's no obvious support link on either http://ontoserver.csiro.au/ or http://ontoserver.csiro.au/about

@Michael Lawley - where should a question like this be asked?
Jim Steel (Jul 21 2016 at 22:34):
ontoserver-support@csiro.au is probably good (as suggested, its not really fhir; otherwise we'd be happy to talk it through somewhere here). When you do email us, please do let us know which version of ontoserver you're using (can make quite a big difference!)

Cool, thanks for the support guys. Much appreciated, I'll flick that through and be sure to provide Ontoserver version

Hi @Daniel Stocker I haven't seen a query come through, but a couple of quick responses here to perhaps short-circuit things.
The documentation links you have above relate to the old non-FHIR version of Ontoserver ; we're still in the process of deprecating that version and tidying up the web-presence of the associated documentation. However, you should be able to find support links at the bottom of the page at http://ontoserver.csiro.au
Regarding the APIs you're looking at, I suspect this is because you'd like to use some of the LOINC ValueSets that are in the public sandbox Ontoserver. I've now added in a version of the LOINC Code System so these should be usable.

Is there more information about what OntoServer supports from the varied terminologies used in the various HealthCare settings globally, e.g. LOINC, ICD-9, ICD-10, CPT, RxNORM ... http://ontoserver.csiro.au/ only really mentions SNOMED and some terminologies specific to AU.
Grahame Grieve (Jun 26 2017 at 07:48):
LOINC too I don't know about RxNorm
Grahame Grieve (Jun 26 2017 at 07:49):
but you could ..encourage... them to support other terminologies...
