Flow Error: Connection to SFTP is failing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by SurendraReddy
Hi,
I have tried to create a flow I.e. MS Sharepoint to SFTP, when a file is created or updated in a MS Sharepoint then it has to copy the file to SFTP server but the connection to SFTP server is failing and it gives a generic message saying "Test Connection Failed". Can anyone help me to achieve successful SFTP connection?

Thanks,
Surendra Reddy

    Hi @SurendraReddy ,

     

    Please make sure the SFTP connection is connected.

    Besides, there is an article about SFTP connector tips, please check it and see if it helps:
