Overview of SFTP (password-based auth)#

SFTP on Pipedream enables secure file management on remote servers directly from your workflows. Utilize this app to automate file uploads, downloads, and synchronization tasks between your systems and SFTP servers. Implement robust data pipelines or deploy content to web servers without manual intervention, all while maintaining a high level of security with password-based authentication.

Connect SFTP (password-based auth)#

module.exports = defineComponent({
  props: {
    sftp_password_based_auth: {
      type: "app",
      app: "sftp_password_based_auth",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const Client = require('ssh2-sftp-client');
    
    const { 
      host,
      username,
      password,
    } = this.sftp_password_based_auth.$auth
    
    const config = {
      host,
      username,
      password,
    }
    
    const sftp = new Client()
    
    await sftp.connect(config)
    this.cwd = await sftp.cwd();
    return await sftp.end();
  },
})

Overview of Python#

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Python#

def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
  # Reference data from previous steps
  print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
  # Return data for use in future steps
  return {"foo": {"test":True}}
