Topic: processing resources individually in a bundle

I am trying to post a bundle whereby each resource is processed individually in the server. After much reading and testing I figured out that bundle type "transaction' when posted to the root, ensures that the server processes each resource individually. However, I wanted to confirm whether the other bundle types like messageHeader are supposed to be processed in a way that each resource is processed individually as a default function. Or one has to do some customizations or create specific operations. Bottomline does it happen out of box or you need to customize for other bundle type resources. Thank you.

this is an implementation specific question. there is no mandate to support batch, transaction, message, or even REST. One must look at the CapabilityStatement to determine what is being declared as supported by a specific server.

@John Moehrke thank you, that really helps.

Transaction and Batch allow the client to define what should happen on the server. Messaging typically gives the server more leeway in terms of what occurs.
