# Address

The Address FHIR resource maps to the Contact​Point​Address​ object in Salesforce.

## FHIR V4.0 - Clinical Data Model Mapping

Here’s how the fields defined by FHIR for [Address](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/datatypes.html#Address) map to the fields in Salesforce.

Table 1. Address - Salesforce
| Address Resource | Salesforce Field | Type | Salesforce Cardinality | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| use | Contact​Point​Address​.Usage​Type | Picklist | 0.1 | FHIR defines Contact​Point​Address​.use as a code set. However, the Salesforce implementation of Contact​Point​Address​.Content​Type is a picklist. |
| type | N/A | N/A | N/A | Not supported |
| text | N/A | N/A | N/A | Not supported |
| line | Contact​Point​Address​.Street | String | 0.1 | While FHIR defines address.line as zero-many, Salesforce supports only one string for each record. If you have multiple lines, it’s recommended to merge them into a single string before passing it to Salesforce. |
| city | Contact​Point​Address​.City | String | 0.1 | N/A |
| district | N/A | N/A | N/A | Not supported |
| state | Contact​Point​Address​.State | String | 0.1 | N/A |
| postal​Code | Contact​Point​Address​.Postal​Code | String | 0.1 | N/A |
| country | Contact​Point​Address​.Country | String | 0.1 | N/A |
| period | Contact​Point​Address​.Active​From​Date | Date | 0.1 | Because Salesforce doesn’t support a native period data type, the Salesforce implementation flattens address​.period to a set of from and to dates. |
| period | Contact​Point​Address​.Active​To​Date | Date | 0.1 | Because Salesforce doesn’t support a native period data type, the Salesforce implementation flattens address​.period to a set of from and to dates. |
