EHR launch
SMART on FHIR EHR launch
An EHR launch is the SMART on FHIR flow in which an app is opened from inside the EHR, which passes it a launch token and the FHIR server address (iss).
The app sends the launch token back during authorisation and receives the current context, such as the patient and encounter, with its access token; in a standalone launch the app starts on its own and asks for that context instead.
