Google Cloud Healthcare Adaptor

About Google Cloud Healthcare​

The Google Cloud Healthcare API is a solution that enables the secure storage, management, and exchange of healthcare data on Google Cloud. It bridges existing care systems and applications hosted on Google Cloud, facilitating interoperability and integration with advanced analytics and machine learning tools.

Integration Options​

1. Rest API: Google Cloud Healthcare offers a REST API that enables external applications to interact with its database and perform bulk operations. This option is ideal for applications requiring scheduled or bulk synchronization with Google Cloud Healthcare. The API supports the HL7® FHIR® (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standard. See functions for more on how to use this adaptor to work with the API.

2. Webhook: The Google Cloud Healthcare API does not natively support webhooks as part of its core functionality. However, you can implement webhook-like behavior using other Google Cloud services and tools in combination with the Healthcare API.

Authentication​

  1. See Google Cloud Healthcare API docs for the latest on supported authentication methods.
  2. When integrating with Google Cloud Healthcare via OpenFn, there is one primary authentication method that is supported: Access Token. See this adaptor's Configuration docs for more on the required authentication parameters.

See platform docs on managing credentials for how to configure a credential in OpenFn. If working locally or if using a Raw JSON credential type, then your configuration will look something like this:

{
  "access_token": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsIng1dCI6IjlGWERwYmZNRlQyU3ZRdVhoODQ2WVR3RUlCdyIsI"
}
