Topic: Extension anywhere in the resource
Mohammad Jafari (Mar 28 2021 at 16:48):
I am trying to define an extension that may appear anywhere in a resource. Since extensions can by default appear anywhere in a resource , I tried leaving the context empty in the structured definition, but I get an error like the following:
extension-... is not allowed to be used at this point (allowed = ; this element is [[Patient.identifier, Identifier])
Any advice on how to define this extension and what to use as the context?

Define the context as Element

Note that there are a few places where extensions are prohibited - you can't extend Bundle, Binary or Parameters (though you can extend child elements within them. You also can't extend Resource.id.
