Hello,so currently I am attempting to utilize the SFTP Smart Services plugin to read files from a remote virtual machine hosted on AWS. However, I am encountering difficulties in configuring the plugin properly to achieve this task.The documentation provided lacks sufficient detail for someone at my level, as I am a beginner certified developer.
i want to ask on what are the steps to configure it in order to acheive the goal which is send or receive file from aws server is there any third application credentials to be configure?and how cna i configure the node plugin?
thank you

Can you share with us what you tried and where you are stuck?
BTW, maybe a stupid question, but did you install a SFTP server on that host machine?
yes i have SFTP on the host machine i have its ip adress ,hostaname,password and port of the host machine is there any other data i need to configure ?it also i need to understand what should i fill in the File Transfer Configurations property of the node ?
This will be a dictionary consisting of the data type "FT_Config", which will provide Server Host Name, Server Port, Timeout, SCS External System Key, Use Per User Credentials, etc.
In my setup I just use Server Host Name (the url of the ftp host), port (22), timeout, a constant containing the SCS external system key (the string found in your external credential store entry), and "use per user credentials" value of "false()". I keep this wrapped up in an Expression Rule to make it easier to pass into the "configurations" entry in the process model.
