You can review, retrieve, create, or update organization records.

read

Review a specific Organization resource with an organization record for a group of individuals or clinicians.

To use a read interaction, you must know the related resource ID, which you may not have in your real workflows. A read is likely only a follow-up option after receiving the specific resource in a recent FHIR® passthrough or data on demand exchange.

Typically, you should use the more flexible _search with query parameters, unless you're guaranteed to request data directly from a FHIR® server using the resource ID. Learn more about using FHIR® identifiers.
