Workato EDI - Download transaction file action
Use the Download transaction file action to download the file content of an Any File transaction from Orderful. Any File transactions contain arbitrary file payloads that fall outside standard EDI message formats, such as XML or flat positional files with custom structure and syntax.
Use this action with the New transactions in polling bucket trigger or the Get record action, both of which provide a download URL for each Any File transaction they return. After the file is downloaded, pass the File contents datapill to a downstream connector to parse or process the payload, such as XML Tools by Workato to parse an XML file.
Refer to Orderful's documentation for more information about standard EDI vs. Any File transactions.
DOWNLOAD URL EXPIRATION
Orderful download URLs expires 24 hours after the transaction is first retrieved. Place this action in the same recipe as the trigger or Get record action that produced the URL, and download the file within 24 hours. Re-run the trigger or Get record action to refresh an expired URL.
