SFTP (password-based auth) Overview#

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.

Trigger Code#

import utils from "../../common/utils.mjs";
import component from "../../../sftp/sources/watch-remote-directory/watch-remote-directory.mjs";

export default {
  ...component,
  props: utils.buildAppProps({
    component,
  }),
  key: "sftp_password_based_auth-watch-remote-directory",
  name: "New Remote Directory Watcher (Password Auth)",
  description: "Emit new events when files get created, changed or deleted from a remote directory. [See the docs](https://github.com/theophilusx/ssh2-sftp-client#orgfac43d1)",
  version: "0.1.1",
  type: "source",
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
SFTP (password-based auth)	`app`	`app`	This component uses the SFTP (password-based auth) app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Root directory	`rootDirectory`	`string`	Root directory to be watched. example: `/public`
Maximum watcher depth	`maxDepth`	`integer`	Watch all subdirectories within of the root directory, considering the selected maximum depth.

Trigger 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.
