Populating Values

To the right of each property name are the options you have available to populate the property. The options will vary depending on the type of property. For example, the following JSON value types typically only have a single text field: String Boolean Number Integer Null You can enter in hard-coded values as shown in the screenshot above. Or, depending on the context you can provide dynamic variable replacement. FHIR Sender When using the resource builder on a FHIR Sender, you can use Velocity variable replacements such as ${varName}. You can also drag-and-drop variables over from the right-hand-side Destination Mappings list. FHIR Transformer Step / Code Template When using the resource builder on a FHIR Transformer Step Type or FHIR Transformer Step Type, any JavaScript expression is valid. For String values, you can also choose to enter a hard-coded literal value. Next to each String value field, there is a button you can use to toggle between these two modes: Parent topic: FHIR Re

Object Builder

When a property value is the type Object, you will be able to choose from Object Builder or Variable. If you want to use a hard-coded value or dynamically replaced variable, choose Variable. When Object Builder is selected, the property will be expanded into a sub-tree that shows all of the sub-properties. From there you can select or deselect sub-properties as you see fit.

The FhirUtil Utility Class

There is also a FhirUtil class accessible in JavaScript contexts. This contains methods to convert to and from XML/JSON, create special resource types like OperationOutcome, or generating resource narratives. Here are some of the most useful methods available: toXML(resource, fhirVersion) fromXML(resourceXML, fhirVersion) toJSON(resource, fhirVersion) fromJSON(resourceJSON, fhirVersion) xmlToJSON(resourceXML, fhirVersion) jsonToXML(resourceJSON, fhirVersion) createOperationOutcome(severity, code, details, fhirVersion) createBinaryResource(byteArray, mimeType, fhirVersion) createBinaryResource(base64String, mimeType, fhirVersion) generateNarrative(resource, fhirVersion) Note that we deprecated the versions of these methods that do not take a fhirVersion, and we recommend you modify your existing code to use these new methods. There are other methods that are not listed here; as mentioned before you can look at the Reference list, the auto-completion dialog, or the Javadoc for more infor
