Our SFTP integration allows you to import CSV files directly from your own SFTP server.
Creating a new SFTP integration
Go to Data&Assets > Integrations > + Add new integration, and select "SFTP" from the list.
You will need to set up certain elements:
Hostname
Required
Plaintext, hostname with public DNS records or IP address. Cannot be an internal IP address.
Port
Required
Number 0-65535. Must be opened on the firewall to all Exponea static IPs which are listed on the current screen in the grey box.
Username
Required
Name of the SSH user to connect with.
Password
Optional
Host key
Required
If you don't have a host key, see our guide to SSH keys to learn where to find it.
You will then need to add the generated public key to your SFTP server.
Security recommendations:
- Use more secure public key authentication instead of password authentication.
- Configure firewall on your SFTP server to allow only Exponea IPs, which are listed on the integration screen.
