Parser configuration fields

Field reference for the parser configuration, parser segment, and field map tables that define how the HL7 parser engine extracts message data.

Parser configuration (sn_hl7_v2_parser_config)

Field Type Description name String (200) Display name for the configuration. An active-uniqueness business rule allows only one active configuration per composite key. sending_application String (100) The sending application value (MSH-3) this configuration applies to. Part of the composite key. Mandatory. sending_facility String (100) The sending facility value (MSH-4) this configuration applies to. Part of the composite key. Mandatory. hl7_version String (20) The HL7 version (MSH-12) this configuration applies to. Part of the composite key. Mandatory. message_type String (20) The message type (MSH-9.1) this configuration applies to. Part of the composite key. Mandatory. message_event String (20) The trigger event (MSH-9.2) this configuration applies to. Part of the composite key. Mandatory. active Boolean Whether this configuration is active and available for runtime lookup. Default: true. description String (255) Optional administrator notes. sample_payload String (4000) A raw HL7 v2.x test message used by the Parse Sample Payload action to populate the parsed value on each field map.

Parser segment (sn_hl7_v2_parser_segment)

Field Type Description parser_config Reference Reference to the parent parser configuration record. Mandatory. name String (200) Human-readable display name for the segment. Mandatory. segment String (10) The HL7 segment code to extract (for example, PV1, EVN). Mandatory. active Boolean Whether this segment is included in parser output. Default: true. description MultiLine String Optional notes.

Field map (sn_hl7_v2_parser_field_map)

Field Type Description parser_segment Reference Reference to the parent parser segment record. Mandatory. field_name String (200) The dotted output path that names where the extracted value is written in the message log’s parsed_data JSON (for example, patient.mrn or visit.dischargeDateTime). Validated for syntax, depth, and uniqueness within the configuration. Mandatory. field_label String (200) Optional human-readable description of the mapping (for example, Patient Medical Record Number), shown in the Parse Sample Payload results. field_position String (10) The HL7 field position to extract, in field or field.component notation (for example, 3 for PV1.3, or 3.2 for the second component of PV1.3). Mandatory. active Boolean Whether this field map is included in parsing. Default: true. parsed_value String (500) The value extracted by the most recent Parse Sample Payload run. Not copied when a configuration is cloned.
