    @P, Pioline (Cognizant) Thanks for reaching out. Bulk loading FHIR data refers to the process of importing large amounts of healthcare data in FHIR format into Azure Health Data Services. This can be useful for migrating data from an existing system or for populating a new system with data.

    In Azure Health Data Services, bulk loading of FHIR data can be done through various methods such as using the Azure API for FHIR, Azure Data Factory, Azure CLI, SDKs, and Azure Storage. These methods allow for the automation of the extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) of bulk FHIR data into Azure Health Data Services.

    Therefore, there are several options available for bulk data loading in Azure Health Data Services, and the choice of method will depend on factors such as the size and complexity of the data, the frequency of data updates, and the level of automation required.

    do let me know incase of further queries, I would be happy to assist you.

    Hi P, Pioline (Cognizant)

    The Azure Health Data Services allows bulk loading of FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) data through various methods. One common approach is using the Azure API for FHIR, providing a standard interface for interacting with the FHIR service hosted in Azure.

    This API supports operations for creating, updating, and retrieving FHIR resources. Additionally, Azure Data Factory, Azure CLI, SDKs, and Azure Storage can be employed for automating the extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) of bulk FHIR data into Azure Health Data Services.
