2 Commits • 2 Features
Jan 1, 2025January 2025: Focused on data model robustness and API documentation quality for NHSDigital/e-referrals-service-api. Delivered two key enhancements that improve data resilience and developer experience: (1) DocumentReference Schema Relaxation for Organisation Information to make the data model more robust when Organisation data is missing (cardinality change in eRS-AttachedByOrganisation; min items in extension array reduced from 3 to 2), and (2) API Documentation Cleanup for VALIDATION_FAILED status to remove an outdated, redundant note and align docs with actual behavior. No major bugs fixed this month; minor documentation improvements were performed to reduce ambiguity. Impact: reduces downstream data errors, simplifies integration, and enhances maintainability of the API and its docs. Technologies/skills demonstrated: REST APIs, JSON Schema/OpenAPI design, API documentation practices, commit-based change management, impact analysis, and cross-team collaboration.
