| Description | Allows you to upload a file to a FTP server (FTP, FTPS, SFTP) |
| Required License | Pro |
The FTP upload function allows us to send one of our Excel files or any file on our system to a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server. In this way, we can easily back up our files to a remote server or store files for later processing.
The corresponding server information is created directly in the trigger action settings
The following information must be provided:
| File | Specifies which file we want to transfer to the server. Here we have the choice between one of our Excel or CSV files – alternatively we can select any file by specifying the file path |
| Protocol | Allows us to select the specific FTP protocol. For example, FTP is not as secure as SFTP but may be necessary to use older systems |
| Server | The IP address or host name of the server |
| Port | Port used to access the server |
| Authentication | Anonymous for servers that do not use user authentication. Here we also enter name and password if the server requires them |
| Target Directory | The directory on the server in which our file is to be saved. |
