Hello!
I need help with using the SFTP plugin, specifically the Send File Smart Service. I have followed the instructions in the documentation, but I cannot establish a successful connection with the remote server.
These are the steps that I have performed:
- I have downloaded the rsa file that contains the private key and uploaded it to the privateKeyFile field.
- I have created a Third-Party Credentials and added there the username.
However, when I try to run the plugin, I receive a timeout error.
I have generated a ppk with puttygen and configured the private key with this value but it tells me that the ppk is invalid.
The configuration that I have is the following:
Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong and how to solve this problem?
Thank you very much for your attention and collaboration.
Appian AppMarket - We are facing the Invalid Private Key issue still. Please refer to
community.appian.com/.../sftp---invalid-private-key-error
for more information/details. Please take a look, any quick response would be much appreciated.
Yes, it worked by putting the IP directly instead of the server name, it does not resolve with the DNS name.
