🇺🇸 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. ---

Welcome to the Make community! > [@MIAMAI](#): > > Do I need to establish another OneDrive connection to download the data? No, you can reuse the same connection. > [@MIAMAI](#): > > Also, when setting up the SFTP server, should I select “Upload a file” or “Download a file”? I’m confused. Your question title is “I need to **upload** content to an SFTP server”. Which module do you think does that? > [@MIAMAI](#): > > I’m struggling with the filenames and files. What do I enter here? To allow others to assist you with your scenario, please provide the following: ## Relevant Screenshots Please share screenshots of your **scenario** , any **error messages** , relevant **module fields** , and relevant **filter settings**. It would really help other community members to see what you’re looking at. You can upload images here using the Upload icon in the text editor: ![](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/2/0/20b53cdf28d223e85fc9654c350eadebd37f5d3c.png) ## Scenario Blueprint Please export the scenario blueprint file to allow others to view the mapped variables in the module fields. At the bottom of the scenario editor, you can click on the three dots to find the Export Blueprint menu item. ![](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/2X/2/2ff55ee04419049c127f183db2b3eebfbbbbfc64.png) ## Output Bundles of Modules Please provide the **output** bundles of the modules by running the scenario (or get from the [scenario History tab](https://www.make.com/en/help/scenarios/scenario-execution-history)), then click the white speech bubble on the top-right of each module and select “Download input/output bundles”. ![](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/2/8/2876156ab3ea5bc9e40bbc0edfb9f025406b7c48.png) ### 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** - **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. — @samliew P.S.: Investing some effort into the [Make Academy](https://academy.make.com) will save you lots of time and frustration using Make. ---
