 ### Design
-The following sections provide the essential information needed to design and build a BaRS compliant solution. BaRS is devised in a way to support re-use of functionality across multiple uses cases, to this end the implementation guidance is split into {{pagelink:design-core-1.0.6, text:BaRS Core}} and {{pagelink:applications, text:BaRS Application}} sections. All solutions **must** build the Core and add the specific requirements of the Application to support the given use case.

-When developing against the standard, understanding the {{pagelink:core-EndToEndWorkflow-1.0.6, text:end-to-end workflow}} is key. This section of the guide describes how a solution interacts with the BaRS API, along with the assumptions and expectations of Senders and Receivers. These are the roles suppliers will adopt when building a solution. This guide is written predominantly from the perspective of the request; the Sender and Receiver of the request. However, if the BaRS Application include a response workflow these roles swap, the Sender becoming the Receiver and vice versa.

 * senders will [generate an access token](https://digital.nhs.uk/developer/guides-and-documentation/security-and-authorisation/application-restricted-restful-apis-signed-jwt-authentication#how-this-pattern-works) from the platform and use this to authenticate with the BaRS API. Additionally, requests will include HTTP header values identifying the organisation, software and user, which are passed through the BaRS API to Receivers who apply their own access control to the request based on the headers content.
 * for Receivers accepting requests, the BaRS API secures the connection with the Receiver using Transport Layer Security Mutual Authentication (TLS MA), using an [NHS Root CA issued certificate](https://digital.nhs.uk/services/path-to-live-environments/live-environment#rootca-and-subca-certificates). The HTTP header values (as described above) are also passed through. This provides the Receiver with sufficient information to accept or reject the request without having to inspect the payload body.
