I am looking into OpenFN for a DHIS2 to DHIS aggregate data integration. These two DHIS2 instances are not the same, so I’ll need to transform the org units (n = 200) and data elements (n = 30). Is there a way to do this with OpenFN? I’d rather not script this if I don’t have to.
Hi Adam,
Yes, you can do this using OpenFn. I’d go about it with two separate jobs:
- Fetch data from the first DHIS2 instance using this fetchData function.
- Then post it to the new instance, building the dataValueSet however you want (new org units, new element IDs, etc.) using the dataValueSet function.
I should mention that OpenFn offers a couple of hours of free setup consulting for non-profits and government implementations—please feel free to reach out to me directly (taylor@openfn.org) if you want someone on our team to help you set up this integration.
