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.

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).
