1 Introduction
ZorgMail is the secure messaging service for healthcare in the Netherlands. Applications of all types of practitioners are
integrated by electronic data interchange (EDI) using ZorgMail. ZorgMail supports all standards (EDIFACT, HL7, XML, etc.)
and maps messages to the standard supported by the receiving application. The sender can send using the standard his
application supports. ZorgMail provides a community where the sender only needs the address of the recipient and comply
to the standards. Applications integrate with the ZorgMail hub, not end-to-end. The community that is integrated with
ZorgMail is published in the ZorgMail Address Book EDI.
ZorgMail also provides a Secure e-mail solution for healthcare in the Netherlands. Addresses for secure e-mail are published
in the ZorgMail Address Book Secure e-mail, a separate book, separately documented.
The ZorgMail Address Book can be accessed through the ZorgMail API. The documentation is available at:
https://api.zorgmail.nl/addressbook/documentation/.
The API provides three interfaces: a REST interface to integrate a search in your application for EDI, a FILE interface to
synchronize the ZorgMail address in the local contacts of your application for EDI or SE, and a LDAP interface to integrate
the Secure e-mail book in your mail client for SE.
This document contains the documentation of the FILE interface for EDI. Complete documentation for all interfaces can be
found online.
2 File formats
The FILE API supports two formats: json and csv. The files are UTF-8 encoded with CRLF line endings and have no defined
sort order. The rows and columns are the same for both formats and described in the next two chapters.
References to the standards:

3 File contents
The standard file can be downloaded from:
https://api.zorgmail.nl/addressbook/files/addressbook_zorgmail_a13_edi.json.zip
Basic authentication is required. Your application can login with an application password (EDI password). This file contains
all enabled mailboxes for EDI. Your application can process this file to update the ZorgMail address of your local contacts.
This process can be optimized by skipping all records with lastModified smaller than the transactionId of the file processed
last. To remove ZorgMail addresses that are no longer enabled all stored addresses must be checked whether the address
still exists or not.
To facilitate an update procedure where stored addresses need not be checked, but processing all records in the file
suffices, the file with suffix ‘_update’ can be downloaded from:
https://api.zorgmail.nl/addressbook/files/addressbook_zorgmail_a13_edi_update.json.zip
This file also contains the deletions of the last 6 months.
To facilitate applications that will only send messages to specific roles, smaller files are available:
https://api.zorgmail.nl/addressbook/files/addressbook_zorgmail_a13_edi_huisartsen.json.zip
https://api.zorgmail.nl/addressbook/files/addressbook_zorgmail_a13_edi_poliklinieken.json.zip
These partial address books do not contain deletions, there is no ‘_update’ variant. To facilitate an update procedure where
stored addresses need not be checked there is a file with all deletions of the last 6 months, but only the key columns to keep
the file small:
https://api.zorgmail.nl/addressbook/files/addressbook_zorgmail_a14_edi_delete.json.zip
Replace ‘json’ by ‘csv’ in the URI’s for format csv.

5 Disclaimer
Disclaimer in Dutch:
Het doel van het ZorgMail Adresboek is het beschikbaar maken van ZorgMail-adressen ten behoeve van elektronische post
via ZorgMail. Elektronische post kan zowel EDI als secure e-mail zijn. Voor adressering wordt het mailadres, het
postbusnummer of de AGB-code gebruikt. Alle overige velden zijn ter identificatie, voor de herkenbaarheid tijdens het
zoeken naar een adres. De straat en woonplaats worden in verband met de herkenbaarheid zo veel mogelijk gevuld met een
bezoek- of praktijkadres. ENOVATION ontvangt de gegevens op verschillende manieren: aanmeldformulieren, telefoon,
bestanden, etc.. Aanpassingen op het ZorgMail Adresboek zijn reactief: (adres)wijzigingen die aan ENOVATION worden
gemeld worden verwerkt. ENOVATION is op geen enkele wijze aansprakelijk voor directe- of indirecte schade die ontstaat
door onjuiste gegevens in het ZorgMail Adresboek.
Het ZorgMail Adresboek mag uitsluitend gebruikt worden voor elektronische post via ZorgMail. De gebruiker heeft niet het
recht om deze gegevens om welke reden dan ook aan derden ter beschikking te stellen. Alle schade die ENOVATION loopt
door het ter beschikking stellen van het ZorgMail Adresboek aan derden kan ENOVATION op de gebruiker verhalen of
indien en zodra de gebruiker het ZorgMail Adresboek aan derden om welke reden dan ook ter beschikking heeft gesteld,
verbeurt de gebruiker een niet voor matiging vatbare boete van € 10.000 ongeacht het recht van ENOVATION om alle door
haar geleden schade op de gebruiker te verhalen.
