So you want to give EdiNation a spin and want to understand what you can and can't do? You're in the right place!
Your Free Plan
You don't need an account to use EdiNation's free plan. You only need an account when subscribing to a paid plan, which you can do by signing up here.
The free plan allows you to use all features of EdiNation with the following limitations:
- Up to 50 API calls a day
- Up to 6 API calls per minute
- Maximum file size 3MB
Your API Key
To use EdiNation you need an API key. The free plan comes with the following API key:

When you subscribe to a paid plan, you'll be provided with a separate API key by signing in to your account:
You can use the API key to access:
- EDI API - set it as an HTTP header parameter
Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key = {Your API key}
- The Web EDI Translator - set it up here
Installing your API key
Once you have obtained an API key (see the previous paragraph), copy it and:
-
Install it in the browser for the Web EDI Translator:

Set it as an HTTP header when requesting the API:
View Usage Data
Every plan comes with a quota that defines how many API calls you are allowed for the duration of your term, when does throttling kicks in, and what happens after you've reached your quota limits.
Every request to our API is measured as an API call. Upon reaching the quota limit and depending on your plan, any subsequent API calls will either fail (for plans without overage) or incur an overage fee per API call (as specified in the plan).
We alert developers via email when they are approaching 85% of their quota limit and have reached 100% of their quota limit.
The quota period starts at the time of your subscription and ends after the specified number of days according to your plan (usually 30 days) from that time.
Web EDI Translator uses two API calls every time you click any of the translation buttons, one API call for translation and one API call for validation.
The quota is shared between EDI API and Web EDI Translator when they are used with the same API key.
