Setting up an AS2 connection to ECGrid can be easily done via your ECGRID Portal.


 


All AS2 connectivity configuration and maintenance can be done by going to

 "Mailboxes" > "My Connections" > "AS2"


*Please Note: The "My Connections" tab provides options for connecting your network and mailboxes to the Loren Data network, not your trading partners’. Trading partner ISA IDs and qualifiers can be found under "TPs"



Set Up your AS2:


  • Select "Mailbox" or "Mailboxes" and choose which mailbox you want to add an AS2 connection with:



  • Select "My Connections"
  • Select "AS2"







  • The bottom half of the page allows you to upload your AS2 profile information and certificate


  • Enter the requested fields for AS2 ID, AS2 URL, upload your certificate, and any other listed settings that fit your preferences:
    *Please note that we support both HTTP and HTTPS




  • Please be sure to choose "ACTIVE" for "Status"


  • Select "+Activate AS2" to fully add your AS2 connection on your ECGRID Portal



 

You are welcome to update the other fields and parameters at your discretion.  



Once you add your profile, you will see it active on this AS2 tab. From this point, you can edit and maintain your profile as necessary. 



Editing your AS2 connection:


To Edit your AS2 ID, URL, or other parameters, simply select "Edit" on the right-hand side of your AS2 configuration and "Save Changes" when done:

  • Select the “Add Certificate” button:




 

*Please note: If the ECGrid certificate that you are connecting to is expiring within the next 90 days, you can download the new one from this page. Our certificate renewal technology runs the new certificate in parallel with the current certificate, allowing you to update the certificate at your convenience. Once you upload the new ECGrid certificate, you must send a test or a file signing with the new certificate. This notifies our network that you have successfully uploaded the new certificate and we automatically switch your profile to the new certificate on our end.
