PHSDEndpoint (Endpoint)	I		Endpoint	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint Short description The technical details of an endpoint that can be used for electronic services Definition The technical details of an endpoint that can be used for electronic services, such as for web services providing XDS.b or a REST endpoint for another FHIR server. This may include any security context information. Data type Endpoint Constraints dom-2: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT contain nested Resources `contained.contained.empty()` dom-3: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL be referred to from elsewhere in the resource or SHALL refer to the containing resource `contained.where((('#'+id in (%resource.descendants().reference \| %resource.descendants().as(canonical) \| %resource.descendants().as(uri) \| %resource.descendants().as(url))) or descendants().where(reference = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists()).not()).trace('unmatched', id).empty()` dom-4: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a meta.versionId or a meta.lastUpdated `contained.meta.versionId.empty() and contained.meta.lastUpdated.empty()` dom-5: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a security label `contained.meta.security.empty()` dom-6: A resource should have narrative for robust management text.`div`.exists() Mappings rim: Entity. Role, or Act rim: n/a
id	Σ	0..1	string	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.id Short description Logical id of this artifact Definition The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes. Comments The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation. Data type string
meta	Σ	0..1	Meta	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.meta Short description Metadata about the resource Definition The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource. Data type Meta Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
implicitRules	Σ ?!	0..1	uri	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.implicitRules Short description A set of rules under which this content was created 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. 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. Data type uri Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
language		0..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.language Short description Language of the resource content Definition The base language in which the resource is written. 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). Data type code Binding A human language. CommonLanguages (preferred) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
text		0..1	Narrative	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.text Short description Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation Alternate names narrative, html, xhtml, display Definition A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety. Comments Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later. Data type Narrative Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: Act.text?
contained		0..*	Resource	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.contained Short description Contained, inline Resources Alternate names inline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources Definition These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope. Comments This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels. Data type Resource Mappings rim: N/A
extension	I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.extension Short description Additional content defined by implementations Alternate names extensions, user content Definition May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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. 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. Data type Extension Constraints 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()` Mappings rim: N/A
modifierExtension	?! I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.modifierExtension Short description Extensions that cannot be ignored Alternate names extensions, user content Definition May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it 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 is allowed to 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). 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. 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. Data type Extension Constraints 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()` Mappings rim: N/A

status	S Σ ?!	1..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.status Short description active \| suspended \| error \| off \| entered-in-error \| test Definition active \| suspended \| error \| off \| test. Comments This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains codes that mark the endpoint as not currently valid. Data type code Binding The status of the endpoint. EndpointStatus (required) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.status rim: n/a

(e.g. XDS.b/DICOM/cds-hook). Comments For additional connectivity details for the protocol, extensions will be used at this point, as in the XDS example. Data type Coding Binding EndpointConnectionType (extensible) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.class rim: n/a

Data type string Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.what[x] rim: n/a
managingOrganization	Σ	0..1	Reference(Organization)	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.managingOrganization Short description Organization that manages this endpoint (might not be the organization that exposes the endpoint) Definition The organization that manages this endpoint (even if technically another organization is hosting this in the cloud, it is the organization associated with the data). Comments This property is not typically used when searching for Endpoint resources for usage. The typical usage is via the reference from an applicable Organization/Location/Practitioner resource, which is where the context is provided. Multiple Locations may reference a single endpoint, and don't have to be within the same organization resource, but most likely within the same organizational hierarchy. Data type Reference(Organization) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
contact		0..*	ContactPoint	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.contact Short description Contact details for source (e.g. troubleshooting) Definition Contact details for a human to contact about the subscription.

Comments The payloadFormat describes the serialization format of the data, where the payloadType indicates the specific document/schema that is being transferred; e.g. DischargeSummary or CarePlan. Data type CodeableConcept Binding EndpointPayloadType (example) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
payloadMimeType	Σ	0..*	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.payloadMimeType Short description Mimetype to send. If not specified, the content could be anything (including no payload, if the connectionType defined this) Definition The mime type to send the payload in - e.g. application/fhir+xml, application/fhir+json. If the mime type is not specified, then the sender could send any content (including no content depending on the connectionType). Comments Sending the payload has obvious security consequences. The server is responsible for ensuring that the content is appropriately secured. Data type code Binding The mime type of an attachment. Any valid mime type is allowed. Mime Types (required) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
address	S Σ	1..1	url	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.address Short description The technical base address for connecting to this endpoint Definition The uri that describes the actual end-point to connect to. Comments For rest-hook, and websocket, the end-point must be an http: or https: URL; for email, a mailto: url, for sms, a tel: url, and for message the endpoint can be in any form of url the server understands (usually, http: or mllp:). The URI is allowed to be relative; in which case, it is relative to the server end-point (since there may be more than one, clients should avoid using relative URIs) This address will be to the service base, without any parameters, or sub-services or resources tacked on. E.g. for a WADO-RS endpoint, the url should be "https://pacs.hospital.org/wado-rs" and not "https://pacs.hospital.org/wado-rs/studies/1.2.250.1.59.40211.12345678.678910/series/1.2.250.1.59.40211.789001276.14556172.67789/instances/...".

id	Σ	0..1	string	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.id Short description Logical id of this artifact Definition The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes. Comments The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation. Data type string
meta	Σ	0..1	Meta	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.meta Short description Metadata about the resource Definition The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource. Data type Meta Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
implicitRules	Σ ?!	0..1	uri	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.implicitRules Short description A set of rules under which this content was created 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. 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. Data type uri Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
language		0..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.language Short description Language of the resource content Definition The base language in which the resource is written. 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). Data type code Binding A human language. CommonLanguages (preferred) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
text		0..1	Narrative	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.text Short description Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation Alternate names narrative, html, xhtml, display Definition A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety. Comments Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later. Data type Narrative Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: Act.text?
contained		0..*	Resource	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.contained Short description Contained, inline Resources Alternate names inline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources Definition These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope. Comments This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels. Data type Resource Mappings rim: N/A
extension	I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.extension Short description Additional content defined by implementations Alternate names extensions, user content Definition May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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. 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. Data type Extension Constraints 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()` Mappings rim: N/A
modifierExtension	?! I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.modifierExtension Short description Extensions that cannot be ignored Alternate names extensions, user content Definition May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it 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 is allowed to 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). 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. 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. Data type Extension Constraints 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()` Mappings rim: N/A
identifier	Σ	0..*	Identifier	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.identifier Short description Identifies this endpoint across multiple systems Definition Identifier for the organization that is used to identify the endpoint across multiple disparate systems. Data type Identifier Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.identifier rim: n/a
status	S Σ ?!	1..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.status Short description active \| suspended \| error \| off \| entered-in-error \| test Definition active \| suspended \| error \| off \| test. Comments This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains codes that mark the endpoint as not currently valid. Data type code Binding The status of the endpoint. EndpointStatus (required) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.status rim: n/a
connectionType	S Σ	1..1	CodingBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.connectionType Short description Protocol/Profile/Standard to be used with this endpoint connection Definition A coded value that represents the technical details of the usage of this endpoint, such as what WSDLs should be used in what way. (e.g. XDS.b/DICOM/cds-hook). Comments For additional connectivity details for the protocol, extensions will be used at this point, as in the XDS example. Data type Coding Binding EndpointConnectionType (extensible) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.class rim: n/a

Data type string Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings w5: FiveWs.what[x] rim: n/a
managingOrganization	Σ	0..1	Reference(Organization)	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.managingOrganization Short description Organization that manages this endpoint (might not be the organization that exposes the endpoint) Definition The organization that manages this endpoint (even if technically another organization is hosting this in the cloud, it is the organization associated with the data). Comments This property is not typically used when searching for Endpoint resources for usage. The typical usage is via the reference from an applicable Organization/Location/Practitioner resource, which is where the context is provided. Multiple Locations may reference a single endpoint, and don't have to be within the same organization resource, but most likely within the same organizational hierarchy. Data type Reference(Organization) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
contact		0..*	ContactPoint	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.contact Short description Contact details for source (e.g. troubleshooting) Definition Contact details for a human to contact about the subscription. The primary use of this for system administrator troubleshooting. Data type ContactPoint Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
period	Σ	0..1	Period	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.period Short description Interval the endpoint is expected to be operational Definition The interval during which the endpoint is expected to be operational.

payloadType	S Σ	1..*	CodeableConcept	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.payloadType Short description The type of content that may be used at this endpoint (e.g. XDS Discharge summaries) Definition The payload type describes the acceptable content that can be communicated on the endpoint. Comments The payloadFormat describes the serialization format of the data, where the payloadType indicates the specific document/schema that is being transferred; e.g. DischargeSummary or CarePlan. Data type CodeableConcept Binding EndpointPayloadType (example) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
payloadMimeType	Σ	0..*	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.payloadMimeType Short description Mimetype to send. If not specified, the content could be anything (including no payload, if the connectionType defined this) Definition The mime type to send the payload in - e.g. application/fhir+xml, application/fhir+json. If the mime type is not specified, then the sender could send any content (including no content depending on the connectionType). Comments Sending the payload has obvious security consequences. The server is responsible for ensuring that the content is appropriately secured. Data type code Binding The mime type of an attachment. Any valid mime type is allowed. Mime Types (required) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
address	S Σ	1..1	url	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Endpoint.address Short description The technical base address for connecting to this endpoint Definition The uri that describes the actual end-point to connect to. Comments For rest-hook, and websocket, the end-point must be an http: or https: URL; for email, a mailto: url, for sms, a tel: url, and for message the endpoint can be in any form of url the server understands (usually, http: or mllp:). The URI is allowed to be relative; in which case, it is relative to the server end-point (since there may be more than one, clients should avoid using relative URIs) This address will be to the service base, without any parameters, or sub-services or resources tacked on. E.g. for a WADO-RS endpoint, the url should be "https://pacs.hospital.org/wado-rs" and not "https://pacs.hospital.org/wado-rs/studies/1.2.250.1.59.40211.12345678.678910/series/1.2.250.1.59.40211.789001276.14556172.67789/instances/...".
