Ftp/SFTP configuration

Question

Hi All, 
 I need to retrieve and send file over the ftp/SFTP location with basic user credentials ( username & password only). 
 I am going through the Appian plugin for the same but it ask private key as well. 
 Is there any way to archive the requirement without private key? 
 
 Thanks in advance.

There are separate smart services for basic credentials.

There is already separate Smart Service available for Basic Credential as a part of SFTP Smart Services Plugin

For what it's worth - I have the updated version of this plugin, 4.1.0 (as well as the old version from about 2 years ago, 3.0.2), and neither of them apparently allow seeing / finding / adding the "(Basic Credentials)" smart service versions to a process model. 
 Then again, I'm pretty sure the SCS configuration allows for basic credentials to be added to the environment's Credential Store. I don't have any Private Key configured in mine and it seems to be working fine with our sFTP site. All I need is the following configuration, which basically just provides the SCS key configured in my credential store (note i provide nothing for "Private Key File", and my server does not ask me for one)...

I'd helpfully note that once installed, the available function / smart service list looks quite a bit different: 
 And, unlike some plug-ins where the "deprecated" smart services remain available and usable after the new versions are rolled out, it appears that for "SFTP Functions", there is no provision to find any of the "deprecated" smart services or add them to a process model (other than, perhaps, opening a model that used the legacy version, if applicable, and copying it over).
