Hello Community

 

I’ve made effective use of HTTPCaller to connect to an external secure FTP. I then download that data to process downstream in the workspace. But can I use FME Desktop to upload to a secure FTP, or perhaps to an external API?

 

Thanks,

Hi scarter,

What kind of secure FTP do you have? SFTP or FTPS? And have you tried the FTPCaller Transformer? It has an option to upload from file or attribute.


Thanks for that. It was more of a theoretical question as I don't currently have a need for it. Although there is something brewing with an external partner that may generate a need to upload to their secure FTP in the future, thus my query. Just to confirm it would not be our FTP. 


Okay, so to answer the question. Yes, it is possible with FME to upload to secure FTP or an API. The FTPCaller or HttpCaller would be the way to go.


For now I just need to be confident that it is something I can offer. I sounds like I can with the FTPCaller or HttpCaller. Thanks.
