The HL7 Server component is used as a source component to listen and receive HL7 messages on a specified port via the LLP Protocol. The HL7 Server responds to each received HL7 message by sending an acknowledgment (ACK message) to the source system.

You can use this component both in production integrations to listen for HL7 messages or as a Test Listener utility representing a destination system.

How to set it up:

Expand
titleImport the HL7 Server component

On the Dashboard, click +COMPONENT and search for HL7 Server.

titleUse test source and destination systems within Iguana to simulate the HL7 integration

For testing:

  • Use the /wiki/spaces/DEVELOPMEN/pages/2317287425 and send messages to localhost and the port configured for the HL7 Server. The HL7 Simulator does not need to be directly linked to the HL7 Server as messages won’t be queued between the components, they use the LLP protocol.

  • Add a second HL7 Server but name it “Test Listener” to act as your destination system receiving and responding to your HL7 feed. Make sure you change the port to receive messages from your HL7 Client.

If you want to modify the way the HL7 Server component handles the LLP protocol, first read: Customizing the HL7 Server Component.
