Developer QuickStart
Send your first EDI file in minutes
No sales call. No credit card on the trial. Register, copy your API key once, and POST a file — clarity and speed beat slide decks for SMB teams. Want the positioning narrative first? See EDI integration that works like an API. Sharing with a buyer or ops lead? Point them to EDI explained (visual explainers; short walkthroughs when available).
- Start the trial — /trial. You'll receive an API key in the response (save it; shown once).
- Optional: sign in — use the dashboard to rotate keys later; the key works immediately for API calls.
- Upload a sample X12 file — use
multipart/form-datatoPOST https://signaledi.com/api/uploadwith your key.
Bash (replace path and key)
curl -X POST "https://signaledi.com/api/upload" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" \ -F "file=@./sample.edi" \ -F "direction=INBOUND" \ -F "integrationMode=EDI" \ -F "outputMode=API"
The API key must include write scope (default on trial keys). Responses return file metadata and processing is queued or runs synchronously depending on your environment.
