Hello sba2018,
We have achieved the requirement, new version will soon be up here.
Thanks.
Hello Meenakshi,
do you have news?
Eventually I will try to code the functionality in java, even if actually a have not experienced with Appian plugin development . is there a git shared repository of plugin?
thanks, sba2018
With existing code no, but I think we can achieve that, give us sometime and I will respond back with findings, it can be a good functionality.
Thanks for sharing the question.

Hi meenakshik,
is there a way to remove directory from remote sFTP ?
Smart Service 'Remove file Over SFTP' seems work only with file
Thanks
Hi ayushimittal, make sure the plug-in is deployed to your cloud environment or the jar is copied to APPIAN_INSTALL/_admin/plugins/ of an on-premise environment https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.1/Appian_Plug-ins.html
After that you can find them by searching in the process modeler palette for smart service by name.
Where can I get these 'SFTP Smart Services'. I am unable to get these services inside the process model smart services.
Fixed on my own, by creating the temp folder in the _admin.
I tried using this plugin "Receive Folder Over FTPS", but its downloading only the first file from the target folder and not downloading all files. Can some one suggest me quickly how to do it ? It's quite urgent for me.
This should be possible by configuring the node to run with MNI. If your files are in an array process variable (i.e. pv!files), you can set the node to run one instance for each item in pv!files. Then when configuring the inputs for the node, simply call pv!files in the input file parameter, and Appian will automatically pass in the instance of that array for the current iteration of the node.
You can find more documentation on MNI here: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.1/Process_Node_and_Smart_Service_Properties.html#other-tab
