AS2 Connector

General

An AS2 connection is used for secure and reliable data exchange over the internet. It ensures data encryption, authentication, integrity, and non-repudiation, making it ideal for compliant and efficient communication between trading partners.

AS2 Connection Setup

To set up an AS2 connection, you'll need to configure several key components:

1. AS2 System Identifiers

  • AS2-From and AS2-To headers identify the sender and receiver.
  • Use 1-128 printable ASCII characters.
  • Values are case-sensitive and must not be folded.
  • Example: AS2-From: CompanyA and AS2-To: CompanyB

2. AS2 - Endpoint URL

  • Enter the URL of the AS2 endpoint for sending messages.
  • Example: https://as2.partnercompany.com/AS2

3. Message Encryption

  • Select this option to encrypt the AS2 message before sending. Encryption ensures that the message content is secure and can only be read by the intended recipient.

4. Partner Certificate (Public Key)

  • Upload the partner's certificate containing their public key.
  • This certificate is used to encrypt messages sent to the partner and to verify the signature of incoming messages, ensuring secure and authenticated communication.

5. Manual Send (AS2)

  • Use this action to manually send a single file via the AS2 protocol. Ensure the file is properly formatted and all required fields are completed before sending.

By configuring these components, you can establish a secure and reliable AS2 connection for exchanging data with your trading partners.
