This endpoint generates and delivers fully-formed EDI files containing a single transaction. It is the simplest way to generate EDI with Stedi.

Transaction

Create Outbound Transaction

This endpoint generates and delivers a fully-formed EDI file containing the staged transactions in the specified transaction group.

Transaction Group

Deliver Transaction Group

This endpoint generates and delivers fully-formed EDI files to your trading partners.

Interchange

Create Outbound Interchange

This endpoint stages a transaction for outbound delivery.

Stage transactions

Fetch a list of transactions, sorted by the date they were created from newest to oldest.
Generally this endpoint is used to display a list of transactions in a UI.
If you are looking to regularly fetch and check for new transactions for programmatic usage, you should use the `ListPollingTransactions` operation instead.

List transactions

List Transactions

This endpoint is used to regularly poll for new transactions that have been processed in Core.

You must define one of `startDateTime` or `pageToken` when making a request.

You may optionally define a `pageSize`. The minimum `pageSize` is 1, and the maximum `pageSize` is 1000. The default is 100.

`startDateTime` takes a string in ISO 8601 format. (ex: `2023-08-10T18:00:00Z`). 
`startDateTime` must be set to at least 1 minute in the past.

The results will contain transactions that occurred after this `startDateTime`. Starting from the oldest to newest transactions ordered by the `processedAt` field. Note, this is _exclusive_ of the `startDateTime`, a transaction occuring at exactly `2023-08-10T18:00:00Z` for instance, would not be included. In addition, there is a 15 second window where newly created transactions will not be included to account for any network latency or clock drifts within the systems to ensure you do not miss any transactions.

Each request will _always_ return a `nextPageToken`, regardless of whether there are new transactions or not.

We DO NOT recommend trying to roll your own polling strategy leveraging `startDateTime` only. There are edge cases around two transactions occuring at the _exact_ same time and being on the edge of a pagination which could cause you to miss one due to the exclusive nature of `startDateTime`. We recommend using `pageToken`'s instead.

When making subsequent polling requests (not initiating with `startDateTime`), the `pageToken` can be used to continue iterating through pages of transactions. Usage of the `pageToken` guaruntees you will not miss any transactions on the stream. If at any point there are no more new transactions in the `item` array, you will still receive a `nextPageToken`. Continue to use this token to poll for new transactions. Once there are new transactions, they will be returned in the `item` array.

`pageToken`'s you have retrieved can serve as checkpoints. They do not expire, and you can always start from that point in the transaction stream again if you need to catch a system up or recover from a failure. Storing `pageToken`'s as part of your polling process is encouraged.

`pageToken`'s are unique per request, opaque, and should not be parsed or modified in any way. They are not guaranteed to be in any particular format, and may change in the future.


Poll transactions

Get Transaction

This endpoint retrieves a transaction's input document before it passes through any translation and mappings.

Input

Get Transaction Input

This endpoint retrieves a transaction's output document after it has been translated.

Output

Fetch a list of executions, sorted by the date they were created from newest to oldest.

List executions

This endpoint is used to regularly poll for new executions that have been processed by Stedi.
