How to use SFTP SSH Connector

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

I have been using flows for a year now and i can say i have a good hands on but you know new things always come up your way.

So i have a requirement to get the attachment that i receive through mail and store it in a SFTP location. To be honest, i do not have much knowledge about SFTP and i have not used this connector.

Could someone who has worked upon it could kindly guide me as to how can i get the attachment stored through SFTP. it would be really helpful as it one of the critical business requirement.

 

Thank You!!

    @Anonymous have you tried to connect to your SFTP server with SFTP client like FileZilla before.

     

    It's quite similar.

     

    1. prepare your SFTP account:

    • username
    • password(if there is)
    • server address
    • port
    • the target folder path on your SFTP server

    2. create the SFTP-SSH connection

     

    3. as you mentioned you need get file from SFTP, use "Get file content using path" to get the file content, and save it to other places, like sharepoint or send it as an attachment in email.
