Event Messages

Event messages

This document describes the types of event messages that are published to destinations (topic/queue) on the message broker for the eHealth Infrastructure. Each message consists of a JSON body and additionally some message properties.

The JSON body contains the event details, while the message properties enable the use of message selectors when consuming messages from a destination.

For each message type is documented:

• naming of destination (topic/queue)
• JSON schema for the message body
• table of message selector properties

EHealthContextEvent

Messages of EHealthContextEvent message type are issued when a resource is created, updated or deleted AND the context criteria is met. Eg. if the criteria is that a specific element of the resource has changed, the context would be the name of the element.

Destination

topic: Topic is named: [FHIR profile of the resource].[context]
