Setting FHIR Sender Properties

After installing, you should now have "FHIR Sender" as one of your destination connector options. It is similar to the HTTP Sender: Image of the Edit Channel - Fhir Sender window The first option in the FHIR Sender Settings allows you to select the FHIR version to use in the destination connector. The default selected version is R4. Each version of FHIR has a different set of resources, so selecting a different version changes the list of resources in the Resources drop-down. The content of each resource also varies between FHIR versions. For example, a Patient resource in R4 does not have the exact same set of properties as a Patient resource in STU3. The properties in the Builder reflect these differences. Retrieving and Viewing Capabilities Parent topic: FHIR Sender
