Topic: url params on operations
Patrick Werner (Sep 03 2021 at 07:50):
Operations are allowed to include a resource param in the body (if no url params are used): http://hl7.org/fhir/operations.html#request
If, when invoking the operation, there is exactly one input parameter of type Resource (irrespective of whether other possible parameters are defined), that the operation can also be executed by a POST with that resource as the body of the request (and no parameters on the url).
Patrick Werner (Sep 03 2021 at 07:51):
But we are using url params on the url while POSTing resources during an operation, e.g. $validate

So the definition on the operations page is wrong?
Josh Mandel (Sep 03 2021 at 12:45):
Great point! I think the examples are right, and the spec text is wrong (or at least incomplete / extremely misleading -- it doesn't explicitly state that you can't execute an operation with a resource in and the body as well as query params)
Josh Mandel (Sep 03 2021 at 12:46):
Will you file a Jira issue for this @Patrick Werner ?
Patrick Werner (Sep 03 2021 at 13:49):
done: https://jira.hl7.org/browse/FHIR-33385
