StartTransformerJob

Runs a job, using a transformer, to parse input EDI (electronic data interchange) file into the output structures used by AWS B2B Data Interchange.

If you only want to transform EDI (electronic data interchange) documents, you don't need to create profiles, partnerships or capabilities. Just create and configure a transformer, and then run the StartTransformerJob API to process your files.
