Patient Document Retrieval
with Metriport · Healthcare Interoperability Operations
Create a patient, run an IHE document query, then list and download the retrieved documents.
- Register the patient under the given facility so document queries can resolve against the networks.
- Start an IHE document query that fans the patient out to the connected health information networks.
- Poll the document query until the download progress reports complete.
- List the retrieved FHIR R4 DocumentReferences available for the patient.
- Request a signed download URL for a specific retrieved document.
What you'll need to have ready

- fileName: File name of the retrieved document to request a download URL for.
