5.2 Resource CapabilityStatement - Content

FHIR Infrastructure Work GroupMaturity Level: 3 Trial UseCompartments: Not linked to any defined compartments

A Capability Statement documents a set of capabilities (behaviors) of a FHIR Server that may be used as a statement of actual server functionality or a statement of required or desired server implementation.

5.2.1 Scope and Usage

The capability statement is a key part of the overall conformance framework in FHIR. It is used as a statement of the features of actual software, or of a set of rules for an application to provide. This statement connects to all the detailed statements of functionality, such as StructureDefinitions and ValueSets. This composite statement of application capability may be used for system compatibility testing, code generation, or as either the basis for a conformance assessment. For further information about Conformance testing, see Conformance Rules and Profiling FHIR.

Specifically, capability statements are used in one of three ways:

5.2.1.1 Describe an actual implementation

In this scenario, the capability statement describes the capabilities of a deployed and configured solution available at a particular access point or set of access points. The statement describes exactly how to interface with that deployed solution and thus provides for a degree of self-configuration of software solutions.

This is the type of profile that FHIR restful solutions are expected to make available on invocation of the capabilities operation. It is also the type of statement that forms a basis for the testing, certification or commissioning of specific software installations.

5.2.1.2 Describe software solution capabilities

In this scenario, the capability statement describes generic capabilities of a software application or component solution. The solution might be available for purchase or other acquisition and might be deployed and configured at any number of independent sites. Because it is not dependent on any particular implementation, the profile cannot provide specific details such as endpoint addresses. It may also need to document various configurations in which the application can be set up or describe the degree of customizability associated with the solution.

This type of statement may be used as a marketing tool by software and system developers to formally describe their capabilities. It can also be used as the basis for conformance testing of software solutions independent of a particular installation.

5.2.1.3 Describe a desired solution

In this scenario, the capability statement describes the capabilities of a desired system. It might be used as part of an architectural design process to document needed system capabilities, or might be used as part of an RFP process to formally document the requirements of a requested solution and to document the criteria by which proposals will be evaluated.

These three types of profiles can be used together. A requirements statement can be compared against the solution statements proffered by respondents to an RFP. A solution statement for a software package forms the starting point for the implementation statement associated with a particular installation of that software package.

5.2.2 Background and Context

Capability Statements provide for a degree of automatic configuration and adaptation. However, capturing absolutely every variation that could impact the interoperability of two systems, let alone keeping that detailed information up-to-date as systems evolve through maintenance and upgrades is rarely practical. Therefore, capability statements should be seen as an interim step. They provide a degree of automation. However, they also provide a great deal of human-readable content that can minimize the need for direct communication between the operators of the systems being configured to interoperate.

CapabilityStatement (DomainResource)An absolute URI that is used to identify this capability statement when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance. This SHALL be a URL, SHOULD be globally unique, and SHOULD be an address at which this capability statement is (or will be) published. The URL SHOULD include the major version of the capability statement. For more information see [Technical and Business Versions](resource.html#versions)url : uri [0..1]The identifier that is used to identify this version of the capability statement when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value managed by the capability statement author and is not expected to be globally unique. For example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed version is not available. There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in a lexicographical sequenceversion : string [0..1]A natural language name identifying the capability statement. This name should be usable as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications such as code generationname : string [0..1]A short, descriptive, user-friendly title for the capability statementtitle : string [0..1]The status of this capability statement. Enables tracking the life-cycle of the content (this element modifies the meaning of other elements)status : code [1..1] The lifecycle status of a Value Set or Concept Map. (Strength=Required)PublicationStatus! A boolean value to indicate that this capability statement is authored for testing purposes (or education/evaluation/marketing), and is not intended to be used for genuine usage (this element modifies the meaning of other elements)experimental : boolean [0..1]The date (and optionally time) when the capability statement was published. The date must change if and when the business version changes and it must change if the status code changes.

5.2.3.2 Constraints

  • cpb-1: A Capability Statement SHALL have at least one of REST, messaging or document element. (expression : rest.exists() or messaging.exists() or document.exists())
  • cpb-12: On CapabilityStatement.rest.resource: Search parameter names must be unique in the context of a resource. (expression on CapabilityStatement.rest.resource: searchParam.select(name).isDistinct())
  • cpb-14: Capability Statements of kind 'requirements' do not have software or implementation elements. (expression : (software.empty() and implementation.empty()) or kind != 'requirements')
  • cpb-15: Capability Statements of kind 'instance' do not have implementation elements. (expression : implementation.empty() or kind != 'capability')
  • cpb-16: On CapabilityStatement.messaging: A Capability Statement messaging element SHALL have either supportedMessage or event element, but not both. (expression on CapabilityStatement.messaging: supportedMessage.empty() != event.empty())
  • cpb-2: A Capability Statement SHALL have at least one of description, software, or implementation element. (expression : (description.count() + software.count() + implementation.count()) > 0)
  • cpb-3: Messaging end-point is required (and is only permitted) when a statement is for an implementation. (expression : messaging.endpoint.empty() or kind = 'instance')
  • cpb-7: The set of documents must be unique by the combination of profile and mode. (expression : document.select(profile.reference&mode).isDistinct())
  • cpb-8: There can only be one REST declaration per mode. (expression : rest.select(mode).isDistinct())
  • cpb-9: On CapabilityStatement.rest: A given resource can only be described once per RESTful mode. (expression on CapabilityStatement.rest: resource.select(type).isDistinct())

5.2.4 Notes:

  • The CapabilityStatement resource provides for an application to describe its use of the RESTful paradigm messaging events, or FHIR documents. Usually, an application would only describe one, but more than one may be described
  • RESTful CapabilityStatement rules:
    • RESTful servers are required to provide this resource on demand. Servers SHALL specify what resource types and operations are supported, and SHOULD also specify profiles for each resource type.
    • RESTful clients SHOULD publish a capability statement
    • The search parameters that a server supports (or a client makes use of) are specified in the resource profile that the capability statement references
    • Resource Types or operations that are not listed are not supported
  • Messaging CapabilityStatement rules:
    • The interpretation of request and response depends on the mode. If the mode is sender, then request specifies what the application sends, and response specifies what it accepts. If the mode is "receiver", then this is reversed
    • If a request or response is not specified for an event, then no rules are made for it
    • Events that are not listed are not supported
    • The MessageDefinition resource is newly proposed and is still considered 'draft'. The supportedMessage element can be used in place of the event and the work group believes it may meet implementer needs better, however because the new mechanism has not yet been reviewed by ballot, the older 'event' mechanism has been retained. Implementers may use one or the other to define their capabilities. Feedback is welcome.
  • Document CapabilityStatement rules:
    • Document profiles should directly constrain the Document.information.class & type elements so that there is no ambiguity concerning which profile any given document conforms to.
  • Other service based use of resources: Due to the variability of these services, the CapabilityStatement resource does not attempt to describe service based use of resources. The various service specifications will need to describe this usage in their own way.

5.2.4.1 Supporting Profiles

A CapabilityStatement declares two different kinds of profiles for the functionality it describes. For a discussion of the use of these two types of resources, see two uses for profiles.

5.2.5 Search Parameters

Search parameters for this resource. The common parameters also apply. See Searching for more information about searching in REST, messaging, and services.
