Hi, I am looking to see if this is a viable option to send flat files from Appian Cloud to an on-premise location. The plugin has a "Remote File Path" parameter that it takes. Can this be used for our use case ? Thanks, Raj

Hello Raj, I have the same problem. Did you resolved your issue by sending multiple files over SFTP ?

Just to provide more information, our client is running the latest version of Appian (v19.3) on the Appian Cloud. They DO NOT want to open up VPN connectivity due to security concerns. So we are considering this SFTP option as an alternative wherein we deliver .csv flat files from the Appian Cloud to an on-premise remote location.
