Before you begin
About this task
When the care team updates a client’s program status and an external system is subscribed to notifications for the Program data type, Watson Care Manager sends a notification to the external system about the update. Then, assuming the you can retrieve the latest version of the data so that users of the external system can view the updated program status.
After receiving a notification, you must retrieve the updates via a suitable API in the REST API catalog so that external system users who do not have access to Watson Care Manager, but are involved in the client's care, can see the latest information.
