Issue 17378: Validation service (hdata-ftf) Source: HL7 (Mr. Grahame Grieve, grahame(at)healthintersections.com.au) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: Similar to the version-aware resource structure, the following URL for sectionDocuments is reserved: (baseURL)/(sectionPath)/(sectionDocument)/validate/ This allows a client to ask the server whether the attached POSTed content would be acceptable as a PUT. By this means that client can (a) validate business logic during testing concerning correct content (b) implement a lite two-phase commit alternative that reduces the chance of partial success of multi-resource operations. The second functionality overlaps a little with existing functionality around safe commit, though what is there now solves a different problem. From the point of view of FHIR, the first is at least as important: a real world way to test content without only having to rely on claims.
