What movesOut: purchase orders and their changes, as signed JSON. In: acknowledgements and supplier invoices. Kabaido does not speak EDIFACT, ANSI X12 or AS2 on the wire: your translator sits between and does that part.
What you hand overWhatever your translator and the trading party require. Kabaido's side is a signed outbound endpoint and a tokenised inbound URL, both created here.

What you get
