    Description
    For reference parameters (ReferenceParam) this value may be used to indicate which chain values (if any) are not valid for the given parameter.
    For reference parameters (ReferenceParam) this value may be used to indicate which chain values (if any) are valid for the given parameter.
    For composite parameters (CompositeParam) this parameter may be used to indicate the parameter type(s) which may be referenced by this param.

    • chainBlacklist

      For reference parameters (ReferenceParam) this value may be used to indicate which chain values (if any) are not valid for the given parameter. Values here will supercede any values specified in chainWhitelist()

      If the parameter annotated with this annotation is not a ReferenceParam, this value must not be populated.

      Default:
      {}
    • chainWhitelist

      For reference parameters (ReferenceParam) this value may be used to indicate which chain values (if any) are valid for the given parameter. If the list contains the value OptionalParam.ALLOW_CHAIN_ANY, all values are valid. (this is the default) If the list contains the value OptionalParam.ALLOW_CHAIN_NOTCHAINED then the reference param only supports the empty chain (i.e. the resource ID).

      Valid values for this parameter include:

      • chainWhitelist={ OptionalParam.ALLOW_CHAIN_NOTCHAINED } - Only allow resource reference (no chaining allowed for this parameter)
      • chainWhitelist={ OptionalParam.ALLOW_CHAIN_ANY } - Allow any chaining at all (including a non chained value, this is the default)
      • chainWhitelist={ "foo", "bar" } - Allow property.foo and property.bar

      Any values specified in chainBlacklist() will supercede (have priority over) values here.

      If the parameter annotated with this annotation is not a ReferenceParam, this value must not be populated.

      Default:
      {"*"}
    • compositeTypes

      For composite parameters (CompositeParam) this parameter may be used to indicate the parameter type(s) which may be referenced by this param.

      If the parameter annotated with this annotation is not a CompositeParam, this value must not be populated.

      Default:
      {}
    • name

      This is the name for the parameter. Generally this should be a simple string (e.g. "name", or "identifier") which will be the name of the URL parameter used to populate this method parameter.

      Most resource model classes have constants which may be used to supply values for this field, e.g. Patient.SP_NAME or Observation.SP_DATE

      If you wish to specify a parameter for a resource reference which only accepts a specific chained value, it is also valid to supply a chained name here, such as "patient.name". It is recommended to supply this using constants where possible, e.g. Observation.SP_SUBJECT + '.' + Patient.SP_IDENTIFIER

    • targetTypes

      For resource reference parameters (ReferenceParam) this parameter may be used to indicate the resource type(s) which may be referenced by this param.

      If the parameter annotated with this annotation is not a ReferenceParam, this value must not be populated.

      Default:
      {}
