I need to upload content to an SFTP server

How To
1

:united_states: I have to create .txt files and upload them from OneDrive to an SFTP server since Make cannot connect directly with FileZilla. I managed to set up OneDrive, and Make is successfully retrieving the files. Do I need to establish another OneDrive connection to download the data? Then comes the server, which I was also able to set up—it didn’t throw any errors in Make. But I’m struggling with the filenames and files. What do I enter here? Surely not the OneDrive folder, but what else? The files are generated daily, so I can’t specify a fixed file. Also, when setting up the SFTP server, should I select “Upload a file” or “Download a file”? I’m confused.

Hallo!
Ich muss Txt.Dateien erstellen und diese von einer Onedrive in einen SFTP Server hochladen, da man Make nicht direkt mit Filezilla verbinden kann. Onedrive konnte ich einrichten und make ruft auch brav ab. Muss ich jetzt nochmal eine onedrive Verbindung herstellen , um die Daten runterzuladen? Dann geht es an den Server, der ging wohl auch noch einzurichten, Make hat jedenfalls nicht gemeckert, aber bei den Dateinamen und Datei habe ich Schwierigkeiten. Was gebe ich da ein ? Den Onedrive Ordner ja wohl nicht, aber was sonst ? Die Dateien werden täglich neu generiert, daher kann ich jetzt auch keine Datei verbindlich angeben. Und muss ich beim SFTP Server, wenn ich den einrichte Upload a file oder download a file angeben ? Ich bin verwirrt.

No, you can reuse the same connection.

Your question title is “I need to upload content to an SFTP server”. Which module do you think does that?

A. Upload as Text File

Save each bundle contents in your text editor as a bundle.txt file, and upload it here into this discussion thread.

B. Insert as Formatted Code Block

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles.
These are the two ways to format text so that it won’t be modified by the forum:

  • Method 1: Type code block manually

    Add three backticks ``` before and after the content/bundle, like this:

    ```
    content goes here
    ```

  • Method 2. Highlight and click the format button in the editor

Providing the input/output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario even if they do not use the external service.

By providing these details, it will allow others to assist you better.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
