About this tag
The azure fhir tag covers Microsoft’s planned retirement of Azure API for FHIR on September 30, 2026, and the practical work required to move production workloads safely. Recent discussions focus on using the FHIR service in Azure Health Data Services as the migration destination, while first identifying every dependent caller and integration. This includes Windows services, IIS applications, scheduled tasks, desktop utilities, scripts, service accounts, SMART applications, and legacy endpoints. Coverage also addresses documented cutover gates for Microsoft Entra authorization, data reconciliation, application testing, endpoint replacement, rollback planning, and clear operational ownership before workloads are migrated.
