Key Features & Functionality
Smart Services included:
All smart services in the package use Secure Credentials Store.
Why does the SFTP component not have Status and Error outputs like the FTP Smart Services?
Hi claudiob , this is a free component maintained by Appian Professional Services which fits a particular need. It may get updated in a future release. However, if you have an immediate need for this particular update, please contact your Appian Account Executive to engage PS to make these changes!
is there a trick to using this plug in?
I've tried multiple ways, even looking at the internal code and am having trouble even getting it to access the Secure Credentials Store for some reason the FTP version of the functions worked fine, however am having all sort of trouble getting it to work for SFTP.
Is there a special trick? maybe some instructions that are unplublished somewhere?
Hi claudiob , I would suggest posting a question in Discussions community.appian.com/.../ about this behavior. Your question will get the most visibility there!
Can this plugin be configured for FTP over SSL? (i.e., FTP-S)
Recent Release Notes:

Is there any documentation for this plugin?
Hi Jit,
The download package contains a document with screenshots but there isn't currently any documentation.

Looks like the screenshots have just been added, as they were not there when I first checked.
