Microsoft FHIRlink creates a direct connection between healthcare apps built on Microsoft Azure services and FHIR services, bypassing the need to duplicate data from Microsoft Dataverse.

FHIRlink reduces the complexity and cost of building low code/no code applications on Power Platform and Azure because developers can build their apps directly against the FHIR services rather than having to duplicate data between systems. Connect Power Automate Flows, Power Platform Canvas Apps, and Azure Logic Apps to various FHIR services and perform your create, retrieve, update and delete operations directly on FHIR resources.
