FTP/SFTP upload. Uploads the files produced by the previous step to a remote FTP or SFTP server, using the host, credentials and remote path configured in the step's FTP settings.
FTP/SFTP download. Downloads files from a remote FTP or SFTP server into the local working folder, using the host, credentials and remote path configured in the step's FTP settings.
The action runs as a step in a SyncTool configuration. You configure the step's settings (e.g. server, login, path, format or SQL depending on the action) and run the configuration. The action fetches the data it needs from Sapera or the external source itself – you do not map source columns as you would for a regular import.
Upload sends the files produced in an earlier step of the configuration to the FTP/SFTP server. Download fetches files from the server into the local working folder so a later step can use them.
Host, login and remote path are set in the step's FTP settings. Both plain FTP and SFTP are supported.
