# Endpoint Validation

Endpoint Validation may be used on any FHIR Endpoint module. When enabled, request payloads will be validated before being processed.

When using endpoint validation, you can specify a [Validation Support Repository](/content/docs/validation_and_conformance/validation_support_repository.html#validation-support-repository/index.html) dependency from your FHIR Endpoint module to a FHIR Storage in order to allow validation against profiles. The Validation Support module is a _FHIR Storage (RDBMS)_ module which holds your conformance artifacts as well as any additional validator configuration. Multiple FHIR Endpoint modules, and other module types which require validation services may share a single Validation Support Repository.
