FHIR Resource Browser

The Admin Portal includes a generic FHIR resource browser inherited from the Medplum open-source admin app. It works for any FHIR resource type and gives admins full read/write access to the raw FHIR data.

Accessing it

Navigate to any resource type by typing it in the URL:

/Patient          → lists all Patient resources
/Observation      → lists all Observation resources
/Condition        → lists all Condition resources

Or use the sidebar shortcuts configured in the user's UserConfiguration.

Available views per resource

When you open a specific resource (/:resourceType/:id), it has multiple tabs:

Tab	Route	Description
Timeline	/:id	Chronological activity timeline for this resource
Details	/:id/details	All fields in a structured table view
Edit	/:id/edit	Edit the resource via a form
JSON	/:id/json	View and edit the raw FHIR JSON
History	/:id/history	All previous versions of this resource
Audit Events	/:id/event	Audit log entries for this specific resource
Apps	/:id/apps	SMART apps (Questionnaires) associated with this resource
Subscriptions	/:id/subscriptions	Active FHIR subscriptions watching this resource
Export	/:id/export	Export this resource and related data
Delete	/:id/delete	Permanently delete this resource
Editor	/:id/editor	Bot only — write and deploy bot TypeScript code
Bots	/:id/bots	Questionnaire only — bots triggered by this questionnaire
Responses	/:id/responses	Questionnaire only — submitted QuestionnaireResponse records
Builder	/:id/builder	Questionnaire only — visual questionnaire form builder
Reference Ranges	/:id/ranges	Observation only — configure lab reference ranges
Report	/:id/report	DiagnosticReport only — rendered report view
Tools	/:id/tools	Low-level resource tools (reindex, resend subscriptions)
Profiles	/:id/profiles	FHIR profile validation results

Creating resources

Navigate to /:resourceType/new to create a new resource. You can create it via:

• Form — a structured input form
• JSON — paste raw FHIR JSON directly

Common resource types used in ChartChat

SSOIntegration	SSO provider config (custom)
ChatSession	AI chat sessions

Batch Upload (/batch)

The Batch page lets admins upload and execute a FHIR Bundle in one operation — useful for bulk data loads, migrations, or testing.

Two ways to submit:

• Drag and drop a .json file containing a FHIR Bundle
• Paste JSON directly into the editor

The bundle is automatically converted to a transaction bundle (if needed) and sent to POST /fhir/R4. Results are shown per entry so you can see which resources succeeded or failed.

Smart Search (/smart)

The Smart Search page renders a FHIRPath-based results table with custom field columns. It is not typically navigated to directly — it is opened programmatically when a search uses custom FHIRPath field configurations.

It accepts URL query parameters:

• resourceType — the FHIR resource type to search
• query — FHIR search query string
• fields — JSON array of FhirPathTableField objects defining which columns to display

tip

For day-to-day admin tasks like managing hospitals and SSO, use the dedicated pages. The FHIR resource browser is most useful for debugging, data investigation, and direct data corrections.
