Overview of Schedule

With Schedule - A trigger provided by Pipedream - You can easily build
automated workflows that run on regular times or intervals. Some examples of
things that you can build using the Schedule API include:

  • Automated data retrieval from a third-party service, like pulling stats from
    your Salesforce account on a set schedule.
  • Uploading new data sets to a database with a predetermined interval.
  • Automatic emails to customers or leads at a certain time of the day.
  • Automating data analysis based on a set schedule.
  • Automatically optimizing social media postings according to a specified
    timeline.
  • Updating webpages at a certain interval with newly available content.
  • Re-running reports on a periodic basis.
  • Refreshing a cache of data at a given frequency.

Overview of SFTP (password-based auth)

SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) is a network protocol that provides secure
file transfers over secure shell (SSH) connections. It is an extension of the
Secure Shell protocol, designed for secure file exchange between hosts. A user
can securely transfer files between systems without having to worry about
external threats, as the protocol is encrypted and authenticated.

With the SFTP API, you can build applications that securely transfer data, such
as files and documents, between two different systems. Some example
applications include:

  • Secure document sharing between two systems
  • Secure file synchronization between two systems
  • Secure backups of data over the network
  • Secure transfers of large files
  • Secure uploads and downloads of data
  • Media streaming between two systems
