SFTP in Macro Scheduler

Post by winstein » Thu Jan 31, 2019 3:01 am

In Macro Scheduler, there are functions for FTP based on what I have seen in the help file. Does Macro Scheduler support SFTP? If so, are there any differences between both FTP and SFTP in terms of how the code is written?

Thank you for reading.

Macro Scheduler supports FTP over SSL/TLS but does NOT support SFTP. SFTP is FTP via SSH which is a whole different thing. We recommend use of WinSCP or Putty via command line from Macro Scheduler if you want to use SFTP.

I like using LabelToVar to store a powershell script that relies on the winscp assembly.
