Sharing client data types with external systems

You can set sharing options to allow Watson Care Manager to receive, and share, client information that is captured in respect of a client data type with external systems. You can download the API definition document for a shared client data type and distribute it to the systems integrator for your organization, so that they can update integrations to use the latest version of the client data type. You can stop sharing a configurable client data type to prevent the sharing of its data with external systems.

About this task

Important: Depending on your changes, each time you modify or create a new version of a shared client data type version, you may need to redistribute its API definition document to your organization's integrator. Otherwise, existing integrations might fail. For more information, see Updates to client data types and external systems.
