FHIR API Search
You can use the search functionality that’s built in to FHIR® to find data on the 1up FHIR Server. You can find data for both simple and complex use cases by running queries that use a RESTful syntax.
For more information about the FHIR search functionality, see Search in the HL7 FHIR Specification.
Limitations¶
Searches of the data in the 1up FHIR Server are subject to the following limitations.
Search Process¶
When you submit a FHIR search query, the following process occurs.
-
The client sends a request for the data with this HTTP syntax:
GET [baseUrl]/[resourceType]?[optional search parameters]
-
The server returns a FHIR Bundle resource.
A FHIR Bundle resource is a container resource that contains all of the matching search results of individual FHIR resources.
