Introducing the ERA PDF API endpoint

Dec 19, 2025

You can now programmatically retrieve PDF versions of your 835 Electronic Remittance Advice (ERAs) using Stedi’s new ERA PDF API endpoint. The {transactionId} path parameter is the ERA's transaction ID.

By default, the endpoint returns the PDF as a base64-encoded string. To get the unencoded PDF data, include the Accept: application/pdf request header. To view the PDF, save the PDF data to a file with a .pdf extension.

curl -X GET \
  "https://healthcare.us.stedi.com/2024-04-01/electronic-remittance-advice/{transactionId}/pdf" \
  -H "Authorization: <api_key>" \
  -H "Accept: application/pdf" \
  > era.pdf

The PDFs are the same as the ones you can download from the Stedi portal:
