The Address FHIR resource maps to the ContactPointAddress object in Salesforce.

FHIR V4.0 - Clinical Data Model Mapping

Here’s how the fields defined by FHIR for Address map to the fields in Salesforce.

Address Resource	Salesforce Field	Type	Salesforce Cardinality	Notes
`use`	`ContactPointAddress.UsageType`	Picklist	0.1	FHIR defines `ContactPointAddress.use` as a code set. However, the Salesforce implementation of `ContactPointAddress.ContentType` is a picklist.
`type`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`text`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`line`	`ContactPointAddress.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`	`ContactPointAddress.City`	String	0.1	N/A
`district`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`state`	`ContactPointAddress.State`	String	0.1	N/A
`postalCode`	`ContactPointAddress.PostalCode`	String	0.1	N/A
`country`	`ContactPointAddress.Country`	String	0.1	N/A
`period`	`ContactPointAddress.ActiveFromDate`	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`	`ContactPointAddress.ActiveToDate`	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.
