Full name: projects.locations.datasets.fhirStores.export
Export resources from the FHIR store to the specified destination.
This method returns an Operation that can be used to track the status of the export by calling operations.get.
Immediate fatal errors appear in the error field, errors are also logged to Cloud Logging (see Viewing error logs in Cloud Logging). Otherwise, when the operation finishes, a detailed response of type ExportResourcesResponse is returned in the response field. The metadata field type for this operation is OperationMetadata.
HTTP request
POST https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1beta1/{name=projects/*/locations/*/datasets/*/fhirStores/*}:export
Required. The name of the FHIR store to export resource from, in the format of projects/{projectId}/locations/{locationId}/datasets/{datasetId}/fhirStores/{fhirStoreId}.
Authorization requires the following IAM permission on the specified resource name:
healthcare.fhirStores.export
Request body
The request body contains data with the following structure:
JSON representation
{"_since": string,"_type": string,// Union field destination can be only one of the following:"gcsDestination": {object(GcsDestination)},"bigqueryDestination": {object(BigQueryDestination)}// End of list of possible types for union field destination.}
Fields
_since
string
If provided, only resources updated after this time are exported. The time uses the format YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss+zz:zz. For example, 2015-02-07T13:28:17.239+02:00 or 2017-01-01T00:00:00Z. The time must be specified to the second and include a time zone.
_type
string
String of comma-delimited FHIR resource types. If provided, only resources of the specified resource type(s) are exported.
Union field destination. The output destination of the export.
To enable the Cloud Healthcare API to write to resources in your project such as Cloud Storage buckets, you must grant the Healthcare Service Agent account the required permissions. For steps to assign the permissions, see Importing data from Cloud Storage. destination can be only one of the following:
The Cloud Healthcare Service Agent requires the roles/storage.objectAdmin Cloud IAM roles on the Cloud Storage location.
The exported outputs are organized by FHIR resource types. The server creates one object per resource type. Each object contains newline delimited JSON, and each line is a FHIR resource.
