Read Operation

The read interaction allows a consumer to retrieve a single pointer (DocumentReference) by logical ID.

The consumer must issue an HTTP GET as shown:

GET [baseUrl]/STU3/DocumentReference/da2b6e8a-3c8f-11e8-baae-6c3be5a609f5-584d385036514c383142

Read the DocumentReference resource for a pointer with the logical id of 'da2b6e8a-3c8f-11e8-baae-6c3be5a609f5-584d385036514c383142'.

Note the status of the pointer must be current for the pointer to be retrieved.

Read Response

Success

A successful execution of the read interaction will:

  • return a 200 OK HTTP status code.
  • return a response body containing a DocumentReference resource which conforms to the NRL-DocumentReference-1 FHIR profile and has the status current.
