Bundle.type must be either 'batch' or 'transaction'.

[sueschm]

Bundle type is collection, it needs to be changed it to transaction/batch ** These types take a request field on each entry, which indicates that, for example, it should be PUT into Patient/2342

To elaborate, "must be either batch or transaction" is an error that will come back from a fhir server (in our case, the IBM fhir server)

As of 1.0.5, there is a flag to change the bundle type that can be used to set it to a batch or transaction to allow it to be taken, but the resulting fhir created is not compliant: it does not have a request in each entry (specification as per https://www.hl7.org/fhir/bundle.html#invs constraint bdl-3). This can be reproduced with:

ConverterOptions converterOptions = new ConverterOptions.Builder().withBundleType(Bundle.BundleType.BATCH).withValidateResource().build();
new HL7ToFHIRConverter().convert(
    "MSH|^~\\&|AccMgr|1|||20050110045504||ADT^A01|599102|P|2.3||| \n" +
    "EVN|A01|20050110045502||||| \n" +
    "PID|1||10006579^^^1^MRN^1||DUCK^DONALD^D||19241010|M||1|111 DUCK ST^^FOWL^CA^999990000^^M|1|8885551212|8885551212|1|2||40007716^^^AccMgr^VN^1|123121234|||||||||||NO \n" +
    "PV1|1|I|PREOP^101^1^1^^^S|3|||37^DISNEY^WALT^^^^^^AccMgr^^^^CI|||01||||1|||37^DISNEY^WALT^^^^^^AccMgr^^^^CI|2|40007716^^^AccMgr^VN|4|||||||||||||||||||1||G|||20050110045253|||||"
    , converterOptions);

Which results in error java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Validation issues encountered. Bundle bdl-3: entry.request mandatory for batch/transaction/history, otherwise prohibited [entry.all(request.exists() = ((%resource.type = 'batch') or (%resource.type = 'transaction') or (%resource.type = 'history')))] ERROR
