    Description

      Issues with Consent in CapabilityStatement-ndh-exchange-server

      Versioning Support: remove or use no version.

      • According to FHIR R4, Contained resources SHALL NOT contain meta.versionId, meta.lastUpdated, or meta.security.
      • Additional guidance in R5 - Regarding history, it's possible to point to a contained resource within a version of the containing resource (via [type]/[id]/_history/[version]#[containedId]), but it's not possible to refer to a version of a contained resource (i.e. this is invalid: [type]/[id]#[containedId]/_history/[version])

      Reference policy: Remove reference policy for Consent.

      • When resolving references, references are resolved by looking through the 'container' resource - the one that contains the other resources. Since there are no nested contained resources, there is only one container resource.
      • References to contained resources are never resolved outside the container resource. Specifically, resolution stops at the elements Bundle.entry.resource and Parameters.parameter.resource, but not at DomainResource.contained.

      Interactions: Remove Interactions (read, search-type, vread, history-instance, history-type.

      • The resource does not exist outside of the container resource.

      Add Documentation: It may help to add documentation in the CapabilityStatement under CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.documentation that indicates that the resource SHALL only be a contained resource and that is not available outside of the container resource.

      See Contained Resources in R4: https://hl7.org/fhir/R4/references.html#contained
      See Contained Resources in R5: It is explained more in R5 and there is nothing contradictory to R4. https://hl7.org/fhir/references.html#contained
