User Configuration

The UserConfiguration resource is used to configure user-specific settings or settings that you want a group of users to share. To do this, you need to create a UserConfiguration resource and reference it in each of the Users's ProjectMembership resources that you want to apply the settings to.

For example:

{
  "resourceType": "ProjectMembership",
  "userConfiguration": {
    "reference": "UserConfiguration/<your-user-configuration-id>",
    "display": "User Configuration Name"
  },
  //...
}

Custom Menu on the Medplum App Sidebar​

The Medplum App has a sidebar that displays a list of resources.

You can add a custom menu to the sidebar by setting the UserConfiguration.menu field. Notice that the target is a FHIR path query that can include filters, sorting, paging, etc.

{
  "resourceType": "UserConfiguration",
  "menu": [
    {
      "title": "My Custom Menu",
      "link": [
        {
          "name": "Patient",
          "target": "/Patient"
        },
        {
          "name": "Practitioner",
          "target": "/Practitioner"
        },
        {
          "name": "Observations - Heart Rate",
          "target": "/Observation?code=http://loinc.org|8867-4"
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  //...
}

User-specific FHIR Quota Rate Limits​

The UserConfiguration.fhirQuota field is used to configure a custom FHIR quota for a Bot, User, or ClientApplication. See FHIR Quota Rate Limits for more information.

For example:

{
  "resourceType": "UserConfiguration",
  "option": [
    {
      "id": "fhirQuota",
      "valueInteger": 60000
    }
  ],
  //...
