This resource has 1 operation associated with it:
For more information about operations, including how they are invoked, see Operations.
The transform operation takes input content, applies a structure map transform, and then returns the output.
The official URL for this operation definition is

Formal Definition (as a OperationDefinition).
URL: [base]/StructureMap/$transform
URL: [base]/StructureMap/[id]/$transform
This is an idempotent operation
The structure map to apply. This is only needed if the operation is invoked at the resource level. If the $transform operation is invoked on a particular structure map, this will be ignored by the server
The logical content to transform
The result of the transform
The input and return are specified as 'Resources'. In most usage of the $transform operation, either the input or return content is not a valid FHIR resource. In these cases, the return type is actually a Binary resource. For this operation, the Binary resources may be encoded directly, using a mime-type, as shown in the example. Note: this specification does not yet address the means by which the servers may know the correct mime types for the various content involved
