Summary of Changes

Hello @angelcaamal, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request resolves an issue in the updateFhirResource.js sample by explicitly configuring the Axios request to expect a JSON response. This change ensures that data received from the API is correctly parsed as JSON, preventing potential issues that could arise if the response was treated as a buffer, thereby improving the reliability of FHIR resource updates.

Highlights

• API Request Configuration: Modified the updateFhirResource.js file to explicitly set the responseType to json for API requests, ensuring proper parsing of responses.

Changelog

• healthcare/fhir/updateFhirResource.js
  • Added responseType: 'json' to the Axios request configuration.

Code Review

This pull request adds responseType: 'json' to the API client configuration in updateFhirResource.js to ensure API responses are parsed as JSON. While this change is specific to updateFhirResource.js, I have some broader feedback on the code in this area.

There are two potential areas for improvement:

1. Consistency across samples: The issue addressed here might also exist in other FHIR sample files within the same directory. A consistent approach to handling API responses across all samples (e.g., in createFhirResource.js, patchFhirResource.js, etc.) would improve the overall quality and usability of the samples. I recommend auditing these files for similar issues.
2. Error Handling: The script in updateFhirResource.js doesn't handle potential errors from the asynchronous API call. This can lead to unhandled promise rejections if the API request fails. Implementing error handling, for example by using a .catch() block or a try...catch statement, would make the sample more robust.

while you're fixing, can you go ahead and add the try/catch error handling? Thank you!
