2.2 URIs for Components and Reference Set Members

A Component is any item identified by an SCTID¹ such as Concept, Relationship, or Description. The partition-identifier can be used to distinguish the Component type. Furthermore, a Reference Set member is identified by a UUID rather than an SCTID.
URIs for Components, based on the corresponding SCTID, take the following form:
http://snomed.info/id/\{sctid}
URIs for members of a Reference Set, based on the corresponding UUIDs, take the following form:
http://snomed.info/id/\{uuid}
For simplicity of presentation, this document refers to either of the above forms as a Component URI.
