# Slot (FHIR R5)

<FhirResourceHeader fhir="r5" slug="slot" />

FHIR R5 Slot resource.

> This page is auto-generated from the server's FHIR R5 CapabilityStatement (`/fhir/R5/metadata`).

## FHIR R5 Specification

Official spec: [Slot — HL7 FHIR R5](https://hl7.org/fhir/R5/slot.html)

## Supported Interactions

- **search-type** — Search resources with query parameters (`GET /fhir/R5/{Resource}?...`)

<Callout variant="note">
Authorized by the SMART scope `system/Appointment.rs`. This resource inherits an existing scope — no per-resource `system/Slot.*` scope is minted; requesting one is rejected.
</Callout>

## Scopes

Scopes are shared across FHIR releases — the same `system/Slot.*` scope grants Slot access on both `/fhir/R4` and `/fhir/R5`.

- <Scope name="system/Appointment.rs" /> — see [scope reference](/v1/scopes#system-appointment-rs)
