What's Changed

Azure Health Data Services (SQL)

• Fix search with include and sort by @LTA-Thinking in https://github.com/microsoft/fhir-server/pull/5242: When executing a search request with _include or _revinclude, if there are more than the _includesCount number of matched items, an include continuation link is provided, allowing you to navigate the complete result set. Previously, this particular functionality had some bugs when it was used in conjunction with _sort. The following issues have been fixed:
• Sorting by lastUpdated (descending): Included resources were missing from the bundle, and no include continuation token was returned. This issue has been fixed; included resources and the include continuation token are now returned correctly.
• Sorting by any other field: If enough results existed to fill a page, it triggered a 500 error. This issue has been fixed, and all results are returned correctly.
• Partial page with sort value: If matched results didn't fill a page but generated an include continuation token, that token was lost during the second search for non-sort matches. This issue has been fixed, and the include continuation token is returned correctly.
• Include continuation link with _sort: The search retrieved data for both matches with and without the sort field, regardless of which type generated the token. This issue has been fixed, and data is retrieved for the correct match.

Common to both Azure API for FHIR and Azure Health Data Services

• Adding SMART v2 fields to SMART configuration. by @v-isyamauchi-gh in https://github.com/microsoft/fhir-server/pull/5220: Updated .well-known/smart-configuration endpoint to support SMART v2: Updated fields in the .well-known/smart-configuration endpoint with all SMART v2 required and recommended fields. Note: This affects both SMART v1 and v2. Some existing fields have been updated, including authorization_endpoint (previously authorizationEndpoint, token_endpoint (previously tokenEndpoint). New fields have been added, including grant_types_supported, token_endpoint_auth_methods_supported, scopes_supported, response_types_supported .
• Fixing 500 error due to an invalid input url for import. by @v-isyamauchi-gh in https://github.com/microsoft/fhir-server/pull/5255: Bug fix for $import error: Previously, using $import with a relative URL could return a 500 Internal Server Error stating "This operation is not supported for a relative URI". This issue has been fixed, and now, a relative URL can be used as the input URL.
• Refactoring authorization code for SMART v2. by @v-isyamauchi-gh in https://github.com/microsoft/fhir-server/pull/5248: Refactoring SMART v2 code to move all SMART v2-related authorization code to one place.
