Stedi Guides now provides targeted JSON Schemas for EDI reading and EDI writingNovember 14, 2022

Reading and writing EDI is at the core of any EDI system. Stedi makes this easy with Guides, a way to define machine readable EDI specifications, and EDI Translate, an API to generate and parse EDI conforming to those specifications. Additionally, customers can use Mappings to transform data from the guide JSON Schema to their internal schema for inbound EDI (or vice versa for outbound EDI).

Previously, the guide builder UI exposed a single, generic JSON Schema for the guide. Customers using this guide JSON Schema for mapping had to make minor modifications depending on whether they are using the schema for EDI reading or EDI writing. Starting today, customers can access schemas specifically tailored for reading or writing EDI (in addition to the generic schema). The schemas can be used directly with Mappings without any modifications, or within your own mapping solution.
