Overview#
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

Authentication#
SFTP (password-based auth) uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your SFTP (password-based auth) account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to SFTP (password-based auth) APIs in both code and no-code steps.
Below, enter the hostname of the SFTP server you'd like to connect to, your username, and the password you'd like to use to connect.
This app only supports password-based authentication, not authentication via private key. If you need to use a private key to connect to a host, please use the SFTP (key-based auth) app, instead.
