trading-partner-connectors

Browse the pre-configured connection templates used to onboard EDI trading partners. Celigo publishes a catalog of more than 590 definitions covering EDI, AS2, VAN, and other B2B transports. list and get are the common case. create, update, and delete exist for definition management, but Celigo curates the published catalog centrally.

The group was renamed in celigo-cli 2026.8.1. It was previously tp-connectors, which remains a working alias. celigo tp-connectors list and celigo trading-partner-connectors list are the same command.

Gotchas

• tp-connectors is still a valid alias. The group was renamed in celigo-cli 2026.8.1, and the old name continues to work. Existing scripts need no change. New scripts should use trading-partner-connectors, which matches the resource name in the REST API reference.
• Celigo curates the published catalog. create, update, and delete exist for definition management, but Celigo owns the 590-plus published entries. These subcommands do not edit them. To change a published entry, contact Celigo.
• These entries describe trading partners, not generic HTTP endpoints. A trading partner connector covers an EDI, AS2, or VAN counterparty. For the HTTP connector catalog used by application-style connections, see http-connectors.
• The API path is tpconnectors, with no hyphen. The command is trading-partner-connectors; the endpoint is /v1/tpconnectors. The old command name matched the endpoint spelling more closely, which is why the alias remains.
• The catalog is large. To find a partner by name, filter list with --jq, for example --jq 'map(select(.name | test("walmart";"i")))'. --format table also keeps the output readable.
