Connect AS2
- In Neblex open Connect › Connections and click New Connection.
- Search for AS2 and give the connection a clear name.
- Fill in the fields. Secret values are encrypted and never shown again.
- Click Test, then Create Connection.
If the system is only reachable inside your network, choose an On-Prem Worker under Test from and run the flow on that Worker. See On-Prem Workers.
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Partner URLRequired | Example: https://as2.partner.example/receive |
| Our AS2 IDRequired | The identifier your organization uses in this relationship (AS2-From). |
| Partner AS2 IDRequired | |
| Our certificate (PEM)Required | The certificate the partner registered for you; travels in signed messages. |
| Our private key (PKCS#8 PEM)RequiredSecret | |
| Partner certificate (PEM)Required | Used to encrypt to the partner and to verify their signatures and receipts. |
| Sign messagesOptional | |
| Encrypt messagesOptional | |
| Require signed MDNsOptional | Request and require a detached-signed synchronous MDN independently of whether the business message itself is signed. |
| HTTP Basic usernameOptional | Optional transport-level HTTP Basic authentication required by some AS2 endpoints. |
| HTTP Basic passwordOptionalSecret | |
| mTLS client certificate (PEM)Optional | Optional client certificate when the partner authenticates AS2 over mutual TLS. |
| mTLS client private key (PEM)OptionalSecret | |
| Private CA certificate (PEM)Optional | Optional CA certificate for a partner endpoint issued by a private PKI. |
Use it in a flow
- Open a flow, open the node library and search for AS2.
- Drag it onto the canvas and choose an Operation and your connection.
- Map the operation's fields from earlier steps, or click Map with Matt.
- Use Test this step to see what it returns, then save.
To start a flow from AS2 without a ready-made trigger: a Poll for changes trigger can check one of its list operations on a schedule and pass on only what is new; if AS2 can send webhooks, a Webhook trigger receives them at its own URL.
Operations
1 operations in 1 groups. Each one is a step you can add to a flow.
