ReLi Med Solutions MU3 API, Version 1.0
End User API Access for Meaningful Use

Introduction

The ReLi Med Solutions API is a read-only RESTful API designed to meet the 2015 Edition Final Rule requirements set forth by the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC), specifically :

Security

Authentication and authorization for the ReLi Med Solutions API can be performed using the OAuth 2.0 protocol in accordance with the OAuth 2.0 specification. Within the OAuth 2.0 protocol, ReLi Med Solutions currently supports the authorization code grant type.

The authorization code grant type flows as follows :

  1. A client (3'rd party application) registers and is provided with an id and secret.
  2. The client application initiates an authorization request.
  3. The user is redirected to the ReLi Med Solutions authorization server.
  4. The user approves the authorization request.
  5. The ReLi Med Solutions authorization server redirects back to the registered client.
  6. The client application uses its secret and exchanges the returned code for an access token.

For more information regarding OAuth 2.0, please refer to the specification.

Access

Prior to accessing the API, all clients must first be registered with ReLi Med Solutions. Once the client registration process has been completed, ReLi Med Solutions will provide the assigned credentials via a secure communication method.
