Base StructureDefinition for Meta Type:
The metadata about a resource. This is content in the resource that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.
Elements
| Name | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | Unique id for inter-element referencing. Details: Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces. | |
| extension | Extension[] | Additional content defined by implementations. Details: 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. 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. | |
| versionId | id | Version specific identifier. Details: The version specific identifier, as it appears in the version portion of the URL. This value changes when the resource is created, updated, or deleted. The server assigns this value, and ignores what the client specifies, except in the case that the server is imposing version integrity on updates/deletes. | |
| lastUpdated | instant | When the resource version last changed. Details: When the resource last changed - e.g. when the version changed. This value is always populated except when the resource is first being created. The server / resource manager sets this value; what a client provides is irrelevant. This is equivalent to the HTTP Last-Modified and SHOULD have the same value on a read interaction. | |
| source | uri | Identifies where the resource comes from. Details: A uri that identifies the source system of the resource. This provides a minimal amount of Provenance information that can be used to track or differentiate the source of information in the resource. The source may identify another FHIR server, document, message, database, etc. The exact use of the source (and the implied Provenance.entity.role) is left to implementer discretion. Only one nominated source is allowed; for additional provenance details, a full Provenance resource should be used. | |
| profile | canonical[] | Profiles this resource claims to conform to. Details: A list of profiles (references to StructureDefinition resources) that this resource claims to conform to. The URL is a reference to StructureDefinition.url. | |
| security | Coding[] | Security Labels applied to this resource. Details: Security labels applied to this resource. These tags connect specific resources to the overall security policy and infrastructure. The security labels can be updated without changing the stated version of the resource. | |
| tag | Coding[] | Tags applied to this resource. Details: Tags applied to this resource. Tags are intended to be used to identify and relate resources to process and workflow. | |
| project | uri | The project that contains this resource. Details: The project that contains this resource. | |
| author | Reference<> | The individual, device or organization who initiated the last change. Details: The individual, device or organization who initiated the last change. | |
| onBehalfOf | Reference<> | Optional individual, device, or organization for whom the change was made. Details: Optional individual, device, or organization for whom the change was made. | |
| account | Reference<> | Optional account reference that can be used for sub-project compartments. Details: @deprecated Use Meta.accounts instead. | |
| accounts | Reference<>[] | Optional account references that can be used for sub-project compartments. Details: Optional account references that can be used for sub-project compartments. | |
| compartment | Reference<>[] | The list of compartments containing this resource. Details: The list of compartments containing this resource. |
