Power Automate Connection to SFTP

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

We would like to use Power Automate to copy files from SharePoint to an SFTP server. Currently, the SFTP connection is not working within Power Automate, and our IT security team requires the outbound source IP addresses to configure a firewall rule. Does anyone know how to identify the outbound IP addresses used by the Power Automate service for SFTP connections, or whether Microsoft provides a list of IP ranges that can be whitelisted?

    You can’t rely on a single fixed outbound IP for Power Automate SFTP.

    • Power Automate uses dynamic, region-based IP ranges (not a single static IP)

    • Microsoft provides official IP ranges, but they are large and change over time

    • Recommended approach: use Azure Service Tags instead of manual IP whitelisting

    What to do:

    1. Whitelist Service Tags (preferred):

      • AzureConnectors

      • PowerPlatformPlex

      • LogicApps

    2. If IP whitelisting is required:

      • Download Microsoft Power Platform / Azure IP ranges (per region, e.g. Europe)

      • Update regularly (about every 90 days)

      • Expect multiple source IPs

    3. Important:

      • SFTP connections may originate from multiple backend IPs

    Conclusion:

    • No single outbound IP is available

    • Use Service Tags or full regional IP ranges

    Alternative (if single IP is required):

    • Azure VNet + NAT Gateway

    • Integration Service Environment (ISE)

    • On-premises data gateway
