Hello,

I am using Send File Over SFTP smart service and I'm supposed to place a file in docfiles folder of F drive in the destination remote VM. So I've given the remote file path as "F:/docfiles/sample.pdf" 

However File is not being transferred to remote file path and I am receiving No Such File error in Appian though I have sample.pdf available in Appian repository.

Any thoughts pls ?

    Hi girikumard, Can you check if you are getting your file in PV ? and Try to access the SFTP path in other browser and check if that's working. Accordingly you can set your path in PM.

    FTP does not support drive letters. A user gets a base path assigned, and based on this you will need to define the remote path.

    How could we know the assigned base path for the user in remote VM?

    I suggest to explore the path structure using a SFTP tool.
