0. Bundle
Definition | A container for a collection of resources.
Short | Contains a collection of resources
Control | 0..*
Is Modifier | false
Summary | false
Invariants | bdl-7: FullUrl must be unique in a bundle, or else entries with the same fullUrl must have different meta.versionId (except in history bundles) ((type = 'history') or entry.where(fullUrl.exists()).select(fullUrl&resource.meta.versionId).isDistinct()) bdl-9: A document must have an identifier with a system and a value (type = 'document' implies (identifier.system.exists() and identifier.value.exists())) bdl-3: entry.request mandatory for batch/transaction/history, otherwise prohibited (entry.all(request.exists() = (%resource.type = 'batch' or %resource.type = 'transaction' or %resource.type = 'history'))) bdl-4: entry.response mandatory for batch-response/transaction-response/history, otherwise prohibited (entry.all(response.exists() = (%resource.type = 'batch-response' or %resource.type = 'transaction-response' or %resource.type = 'history'))) bdl-12: A message must have a MessageHeader as the first resource (type = 'message' implies entry.first().resource.is(MessageHeader)) bdl-1: total only when a search or history (total.empty() or (type = 'searchset') or (type = 'history')) bdl-2: entry.search only when a search (entry.search.empty() or (type = 'searchset')) bdl-11: A document must have a Composition as the first resource (type = 'document' implies entry.first().resource.is(Composition)) bdl-10: A document must have a date (type = 'document' implies (timestamp.hasValue()))
2. Bundle.implicitRules
Definition | A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.
Short | A set of rules under which this content was created
Comments | Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.
Control | 0..1
Type | uri
Is Modifier | true because This element is labeled as a modifier because the implicit rules may provide additional knowledge about the resource that modifies it's meaning or interpretation
Primitive Value | This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension
Summary | true
Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
4. Bundle.type
Definition | Indicates the purpose of this bundle - how it is intended to be used.
Short | document | message | transaction | transaction-response | batch | batch-response | history | searchset | collection
Comments | It's possible to use a bundle for other purposes (e.g. a document can be accepted as a transaction). This is primarily defined so that there can be specific rules for some of the bundle types.
Control | 1..1
Binding | The codes SHALL be taken from BundleType http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/bundle-type|4.0.1 (required to `http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/bundle-type|4.0.1` ) Indicates the purpose of a bundle - how it is intended to be used.
Type | code
Is Modifier | false
Primitive Value | This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension
Must Support | true
Summary | true
Pattern Value | `transaction`
Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
6. Bundle.link
Definition | A series of links that provide context to this bundle.
Short | Links related to this Bundle
Comments | Both Bundle.link and Bundle.entry.link are defined to support providing additional context when Bundles are used (e.g. HATEOAS). Bundle.entry.link corresponds to links found in the HTTP header if the resource in the entry was read directly. This specification defines some specific uses of Bundle.link for searching and paging, but no specific uses for Bundle.entry.link, and no defined function in a transaction - the meaning is implementation specific.
Control | 0..0* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Type | BackboneElement
Is Modifier | false
Summary | true
Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
11. Bundle.entry
Definition | An entry in a bundle resource - will either contain a resource or information about a resource (transactions and history only).
Short | Entry in the bundle - will have a resource or information
Control | 10..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Type | BackboneElement
Is Modifier | false
Must Support | true
Summary | true
Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) bdl-8: fullUrl cannot be a version specific reference (fullUrl.contains('/_history/').not()) bdl-5: must be a resource unless there's a request or response (resource.exists() or request.exists() or response.exists())
Slicing | This element introduces a set of slices on `Bundle.entry`. The slices areUnordered and Closed, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators: value @ request.url
13. Bundle.entry.modifierExtension
Definition | May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions. Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).
Short | Extensions that cannot be ignored even if unrecognized
Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.
Control | 0..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Type | Extension
Is Modifier | true because Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the element that contains them
Summary | true
Requirements | Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

8. Bundle.language
Definition | The base language in which the resource is written.
Short | Language of the resource content
Comments | Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

10. Bundle.identifier
Definition | A persistent identifier for the bundle that won't change as a bundle is copied from server to server.
Short | Persistent identifier for the bundle
Comments | Persistent identity generally only matters for batches of type Document, Message, and Collection. It would not normally be populated for search and history results and servers ignore Bundle.identifier when processing batches and transactions.

14. Bundle.timestamp
Definition | The date/time that the bundle was assembled - i.e. when the resources were placed in the bundle.
Short | When the bundle was assembled
Comments | For many bundles, the timestamp is equal to .meta.lastUpdated, because they are not stored (e.g. search results). When a bundle is placed in a persistent store, .meta.lastUpdated will be usually be changed by the server. When the bundle is a message, a middleware agent altering the message (even if not stored) SHOULD update .meta.lastUpdated. .timestamp is used to track the original time of the Bundle, and SHOULD be populated. Usage: document : the date the document was created. Note: the composition may predate the document, or be associated with multiple documents. The date of the composition - the authoring time - may be earlier than the document assembly time message : the date that the content of the message was assembled. This date is not changed by middleware engines unless they add additional data that changes the meaning of the time of the message history : the date that the history was assembled. This time would be used as the _since time to ask for subsequent updates searchset : the time that the search set was assembled. Note that different pages MAY have different timestamps but need not. Having different timestamps does not imply that subsequent pages will represent or include changes made since the initial query transaction | transaction-response | batch | batch-response | collection : no particular assigned meaning The timestamp value should be greater than the lastUpdated and other timestamps in the resources in the bundle, and it should be equal or earlier than the .meta.lastUpdated on the Bundle itself.

The fullUrl is a version independent reference to the resource. The fullUrl element SHALL have a value except that: fullUrl can be empty on a POST (although it does not need to when specifying a temporary id for reference in the bundle) Results from operations might involve resources that are not identified.
Short | URI for resource (Absolute URL server address or URI for UUID/OID)
Comments | fullUrl might not be unique in the context of a resource. Note that since FHIR resources do not need to be served through the FHIR API, the fullURL might be a URN or an absolute URL that does not end with the logical id of the resource (Resource.id). However, but if the fullUrl does look like a RESTful server URL (e.g. meets the regex, then the 'id' portion of the fullUrl SHALL end with the Resource.id.

Comments | For a POST/PUT operation, this is the equivalent outcome that would be returned for prefer = operationoutcome - except that the resource is always returned whether or not the outcome is returned. This outcome is not used for error responses in batch/transaction, only for hints and warnings. In a batch operation, the error will be in Bundle.entry.response, and for transaction, there will be a single OperationOutcome instead of a bundle in the case of an error.

Definition | An entry in a bundle resource - will either contain a resource or information about a resource (transactions and history only).
Short | Entry in the bundle - will have a resource or information
Control | 1..1 This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Type | BackboneElement
Is Modifier | false
Must Support | true
Summary | true
Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (`hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`) bdl-8: fullUrl cannot be a version specific reference (`fullUrl.contains('/_history/').not()`) bdl-5: must be a resource unless there's a request or response (`resource.exists() or request.exists() or response.exists()`)
193. Bundle.entry:commit.id
Definition | Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.
Short | Unique id for inter-element referencing
Control | 0..1
Type | string
Is Modifier | false
XML Format | In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute.
Summary | false
195. Bundle.entry:commit.extension
Definition | May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.
Short | Additional content defined by implementations
Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (`hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (`extension.exists() != value.exists()`)
Slicing | This element introduces a set of slices on `Bundle.entry.extension`. The slices areUnordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators: value @ url
197. Bundle.entry:commit.modifierExtension
Definition | May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions. Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).
Short | Extensions that cannot be ignored even if unrecognized
Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.
Control | 0..*
Type | Extension
Is Modifier | true because Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the element that contains them
Summary | true
Requirements | Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

Control | 0..*
Type | Seettp://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Bundle#Bundle.link
Summary | true
201. Bundle.entry:commit.fullUrl
Definition | The Absolute URL for the resource. The fullUrl SHALL NOT disagree with the id in the resource - i.e. if the fullUrl is not a urn:uuid, the URL shall be version-independent URL consistent with the Resource.id. The fullUrl is a version independent reference to the resource. The fullUrl element SHALL have a value except that: fullUrl can be empty on a POST (although it does not need to when specifying a temporary id for reference in the bundle) Results from operations might involve resources that are not identified.
Short | URI for resource (Absolute URL server address or URI for UUID/OID)
Comments | fullUrl might not be unique in the context of a resource. Note that since FHIR resources do not need to be served through the FHIR API, the fullURL might be a URN or an absolute URL that does not end with the logical id of the resource (Resource.id). However, but if the fullUrl does look like a RESTful server URL (e.g. meets the regex, then the 'id' portion of the fullUrl SHALL end with the Resource.id. Note that the fullUrl is not the same as the canonical URL - it's an absolute url for an endpoint serving the resource (these will happen to have the same value on the canonical server for the resource with the canonical URL).

Type | Signature
Is Modifier | false
Summary | true
Requirements | A Signature holds an electronic representation of a signature and its supporting context in a FHIR accessible form. The signature may either be a cryptographic type (XML DigSig or a JWS), which is able to provide non-repudiation proof, or it may be a graphical image that represents a signature or a signature process. This element allows capturing signatures on documents, messages, transactions or even search responses, to support content-authentication, non-repudiation or other business cases. This is primarily relevant where the bundle may travel through multiple hops or via other mechanisms where HTTPS non-repudiation is insufficient.
