How can I verify whether the file was actually transferred to the SFTP server?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;In my sFTP process framework, I configured a special subprocess that gets the remote directory contents right after an upload.&amp;nbsp; This just requires the remote folder path to be passed, and returns a list of file and subdirectory contents of the remote path.&amp;nbsp; This allows pretty easily to validate whether the file you just sent was uploaded successfully.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: SFTP</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/154905?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2026 13:35:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:24ae4d8d-d419-4c4a-a8ae-5b61734d95f0</guid><dc:creator>Mike Schmitt</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The Remote File Path value is required and should contain not only the &lt;em&gt;Remote Path&lt;/em&gt; but also the &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Filename&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/19/pastedimage1781184850101v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The remote path should end in &amp;quot;/&amp;quot; (forward slash) - if uploading to the root directory for your sFTP login, then provide a remote path of simply &amp;quot;/&amp;quot;, and (as far as i know) if uploading to a remote subdirectory, the directory path should also end in &amp;quot;/&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following the path, in the same string, you will need to include the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;full filename&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, including extension.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Therefore if you&amp;#39;re trying to upload &amp;quot;export.xlsx&amp;quot; to the root directory of your sFTP login, you will need to make the whole string, &amp;quot;/export.xlsx&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
