Updating data

This section describes information about methods for updating data in the HDR FHIR Repository.

• Patching data
  You can patch data to make a small change to a resource without needing to re-upload the entire content. For example, a resource status field might be changed by an application with no other changes needed.
• Tag retention
  According to the FHIR rules on updating resources, by default when a resource is updated, any tags and security labels are carried forward even if they are not explicitly listed in the new version.
