Resend Webhooks

Medplum implements a custom operation, $resend, that can be used to trigger Subscriptions listening to a a particular resource. Please note that the User, Bot, or ClientApplication invoking this operation must have project admin credentials.

The operation takes an optional option parameter, which is an object containing three fields:

Option	Description	Data Type	Default Value
verbose	Indicates if verbose logging should be enabled.	boolean	false
interaction	Subscriptions can be configured to trigger only when a resource is created or deleted as opposed to any update. This option allows you to specify which interaction type will be sent.	update | create | delete	update
subscription	A specific Subscription to trigger, formatted as Subscription/<id>. If left undefined, all Subscriptions will be triggered.	string	undefined

Invoke the $resend operation

TypeScript

const medplum = new MedplumClient();
// auth...
await medplum.post(medplum.fhirUrl(<resourceType>, <id>, '$resend'), {
verbose: true,
interaction: 'update',
subscription: 'Subscription/123'
});

CLI

medplum login
medplum post '<resourceType>/<id>/$resend' {"verbose":"true","interaction":"update","subscription":"Subscription/123"}

-X 'POST' \
-H 'authorization: Bearer MY_ACCESS_TOKEN' \
-H 'content-type: application/fhir+json' \
--data-raw '{"verbose":"true","interaction":"update","subscription":"Subscription/123"}'
