Developer App Workflow

[priyamm]

Hi Team,

I've requirement as below and I need to know the workflow as I've gone through the documentation but not able to decide which path to take.

We have clients who are using Cerner Millennium for their daily Practice Management System. They feed in Patient, Provider, Appointment data into the cerner system. We need to fetch the appointment and patient's data from Cerner. Hence, we need to setup a Developer App. Here I'm unable to understand whether I should be going with Provider App or System App workflow on https://code.cerner.com/.

I know that once I make authorization url and send it to client, they can verify and I can resume with access token workflow and fetch the data from API's mentioned in docs. But the issue is with the decision of app and linking it to https://sandboxcernercentral.com/.

Hi there,

I'm not sure I fully understand? https://sandboxcernercentral.com/ is solely for creating a system account for system access, if your app is being launched within the EHR or has a user actively performing an action that results in FHIR calls being made, then you will want to use provider access. If your app does not have a user performing an action which results in FHIR calls being made and a system is executing calls on it's own, maybe through some automated process like a cron job, then you'd use system access.

Let me know if you need further clarification or if you have other questions.

Thanks,

Ben (Cerner)
