Parse EDI action

The Parse EDI action enables you to convert EDI documents into Workato datapills.

Parse EDI action configuration

To use this action you must select the EDI standard, provide a sample document, and the EDI document content to parse. A sample document is essential for Workato to generate the schema that is then used in configuring downstream actions of the recipe.
