Topic: Fhir net api - delete all resources of a type

Hi, anyone know how I can do a batch deletion of all or multiple resources of a certain resource type? I'm using MS FHIR API which does not support transactions, so that's a no-go.

You can check the CapabilityStatement for the 'conditionalDelete' interaction on the resource type. If that states 'multiple', the server will be able to delete multiple resources in one go. In that case, you could try a 'DELETE <ms_server>/<resource_type>' to try and delete all resources of that type.

My server does not support that, unfortunately

Is the requirement that all deletes happen in a Transaction? If not, the managed service does support Batch type Bundles

No, it was just one way I had found that looked like it would solve it. Thank you for the tip, I'll check it out.
