Download Files from SFTP

This task will export a file from a remote SFTP server to the local PC or networked drive.

Settings

Connection

Required
The SFTP Connection to deleteĀ from. See the Connecting to an SFTP Server if you require more information on how to create/manage connections.

Directory

Required
The directory to move to on SFTP Server e.g. /webdata. It is important that you use the 'Text or script' data type instead of 'Folder, HTTP or FTP location' for this setting. This will prevent Zynk treating it as a relative path and converting it to an absolute path on the local file system.

Filename

Required
The name of file to be exported e.g. web_orders.xml. It is important that you use the 'Text or script' data type instead of 'File' for this setting. This will prevent Zynk treating it as a relative path and converting it to an absolute path on the local file system.

Output File

Required
The name of the file to create on the local file system.
