### Does Events support FHIR bundles?
37
+
38

Yes. The Events feature is designed to emit notifications of data changes at the FHIR resource level.
39
+
40
+
Events support these [FHIR bundle types](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/valueset-bundle-type.html) in the following ways:
41
+
42
+
-**Batch**: An event is emitted for each successful data change operation in a bundle. If one of the operations generates an error, no event is emitted for that operation. For example: the batch bundle contains five operations, however, there's an error with one of the operations. Events are emitted for the four successful operations with no event emitted for the operation that generated an error.
43
+
44
+
-**Transaction**: An event is emitted for each successful bundle operation as long as there are no errors. If there are any errors within a transaction bundle, then no events are emitted. For example: the transaction bundle contains five operations, however, there's an error with one of the operations. No events are emitted for that bundle.

### What is the throughput for the Events messages?
47
62
48
-
The throughput of FHIR and DICOM events is governed by the throughput of the FHIR or DICOM service and the Event Grid. When a request made to the FHIR service is successful, it will return a 2xx HTTP status code. It will also generate a FHIR resource or DICOM image changing event. The current limitation is 5,000 events/second per a workspace for all FHIR or DICOM service instances in it.

### How do I subscribe to multiple FHIR and/or DICOM services in the same workspace separately?

You can use the Event Grid filtering feature. There are unique identifiers in the event message payload to differentiate different accounts and workspaces. You can find a global unique identifier for workspace in the `source` field, which is the Azure Resource ID. You can locate the unique FHIR account name in that workspace in the `data.resourceFhirAccount` field. You can locate the unique DICOM account name in that workspace in the `data.serviceHostName` field. When you create a subscription, you can use the filtering operators to select the events you want to get in that subscription.

On average, you should receive your event message within one second after a successful HTTP request. 99.99% of the event messages should be delivered within five seconds unless the limitation of either the FHIR service, DICOM service, or [Event Grid](../../event-grid/quotas-limits.md) has been met.

Yes. The Event Grid guarantees at least one Events message delivery with its push mode. There may be chances that the event delivery request returns with a transient failure status code for random reasons. In this situation, the Event Grid will consider that as a delivery failure and will resend the Events message. For more information, see [Azure Event Grid delivery and retry](../../event-grid/delivery-and-retry.md).

Generally, we recommend that developers ensure idempotency for the event subscriber. The event ID or the combination of all fields in the ```data``` property of the message content are unique per each event. The developer can rely on them to de-duplicate.
