An authenticated call returns a `302 Found` whose `Location` header and `documentDownloadUrl` body point at a short-lived, presigned download URL. Follow that URL (with or without the `Authorization` header) to stream the artifact; the presigned URL is valid for 60 minutes and is bound to your organization, the transaction, and the `output` usage. ## Overview Downloads the transaction's **output document** — the translated JSON (Guide JSON) Cair produced from the input. This is a 1:1 drop-in for Stedi's [Retrieve Transaction Output](https://www.stedi.com/docs/healthcare/api-reference/get-transactions-output) operation and the Stedi SDK's `getTransactionOutput`. For `835` remits the output is the parsed claim payment JSON; for `837` claims it is the parsed claim JSON. The `Content-Type` of the downloaded artifact is `application/json`. ## Authentication The **initial** request is authenticated with your JWT Bearer token from [`POST /api/token`](/api-reference/endpoint/token), with the `api-access` feature. The **download** request that follows the redirect is authenticated by the presigned token in the URL and does **not** require the `Authorization` header. ## Path parameters The `transactionId` whose output artifact you want to download. ## Two-step download flow Identical to the input endpoint: 1. **Authenticated request.** Call the endpoint with your Bearer token. Cair responds `302 Found` with a `Location` header and a `{ "documentDownloadUrl": "..." }` body. 2. **Follow the redirect.** Fetch the presigned URL — with or without the `Authorization` header — and Cair streams the JSON output artifact. The presigned URL is valid for **60 minutes** and is bound to your organization, the transaction, and the `output` usage. Most SDKs and HTTP clients follow the `302` automatically, so `getTransactionOutput` typically returns the artifact bytes in a single call. ## Example ```bash theme={null} curl -L "https://forecaster.cairhealth.com/api/stedi/2023-08-01/transactions/c1f2e3d4a5b6c7d8e9f0a1b2c3d4e5f6/output" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN" \ -o transaction.json ``` ```ts theme={null} const output = await fetch( `https://forecaster.cairhealth.com/api/stedi/2023-08-01/transactions/${transactionId}/output`, { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.CAIR_ACCESS_TOKEN}` } }, ); const json = await output.json(); ``` With the Stedi SDK: ```ts theme={null} const json = await stedi.core.getTransactionOutput('c1f2e3d4a5b6c7d8e9f0a1b2c3d4e5f6'); ``` ## Response `302 Found` — body: ```json theme={null} { "documentDownloadUrl": "https://forecaster.cairhealth.com/api/stedi/2023-08-01/transactions/c1f2e3d4a5b6c7d8e9f0a1b2c3d4e5f6/output?token=0a1b2c3d4e5f60718293a4b5c6d7e8f9" } ``` `200 OK` (after following the redirect) — the translated JSON artifact: ```json theme={null} { "heading": { "payer_identification_N1_loop": { "payer_identification_N1": { "entity_identifier_code_01": "PR", "payer_name_02": "ACME HEALTH PLAN", "payer_identifier_04": "12345" } } }, "detail": { "claim_payment_information_CLP": { "claim_submitter_identifier_01": "PCN123456", "claim_status_code_02": "1", "total_claim_charge_amount_03": "250.00", "claim_payment_amount_04": "200.00" } } } ``` ## Errors | Status | Meaning | | :- | :- | | `401` | Missing/invalid Bearer token on the initial call, or an invalid/expired presigned token. | | `404` | Transaction or output artifact not found, or not owned by your organization. | ## OpenAPI ````yaml GET /api/stedi/2023-08-01/transactions/{transactionId}/output openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Cair Health APIs description: APIs for the Cair Health platform license: name: MIT version: 1.0.0 servers: - url: https://forecaster.cairhealth.com security: - bearerAuth: [] paths: /api/stedi/2023-08-01/transactions/{transactionId}/output: get: summary: Get a transaction's output document description: >- Stedi Core-compatible **Retrieve Transaction Output** — the translated JSON document Cair produced (Guide JSON).
