Topic: TerminologyCapabilities.codeSystem uri/version
John Timm (Feb 24 2021 at 14:41):
If TerminologyCapabilities.codeSystem.uri
element is of type canonical
(meaning it could include a version suffix <url>|<version>), then why is there also a TerminologyCapabilities.codeSystem.version.code
element? Should the version be stored in one place removing the possibility of error/ambiguity?

I'll try to look at that and think more about what the answer should be.

Simple answer is that the current structure allows for multiple versions of a Code System to be defined. Furthermore, not all external Code Systems support appending versions to their identifiers.

in this case it would not be appropriate to append a version to the TerminologyCapabilities.codeSystem.uri, but I overlooked thinking about the fact that it could be legal
