Full name: projects.locations.datasets.fhirStores.fhir.ConceptMap-translate
Translates a code from one value set to another using a concept map. You can provide your own concept maps to translate any code system to another code system.
Implements the FHIR standard $translate operation (DSTU2, STU3, R4), R5).
On success, the response body contains a JSON-encoded representation of a FHIR Parameters resource, which includes the translation result. Errors generated by the FHIR store contain a JSON-encoded OperationOutcome resource describing the reason for the error. If the request cannot be mapped to a valid API method on a FHIR store, a generic GCP error might be returned instead.
