Resources available from Bundles, but not via Resource ID

[Keith Welch]

Using HAPI FHIR against the sandbox, I have noticed some odd behavior involving the following resource types:

 

• Observation
• Binary
• DiagnosticReport

When I query with a patient or subject (perhaps with a category), I am always returned a Bundle, which contain the expected resources. However, if I obtain the resource ID by other means, and try to access the resource directly, like  Observation/M9115382, I am returned an empty string.

I don't generally need to obtain resources this way, so I may have just not encountered this behavior. Is this intentional, or just a problem in the sandbox? I have included the response headers, in case it needs to be investigated (note the zero length content).

Thanks

Hi Keith,
