FTP/SFTP delivery of a profile result

This article covers only delivery of the finished result via FTP, FTPS, or SFTP. A data source receives the input file into Eofferix. Delivery sends the processed profile result to an external system.

Where to configure it

1. Open the profile.
2. On the “Template creation” step, find the general settings area.
3. In “External delivery”, choose “FTP / FTPS” or “SFTP”.

What to enter

• Server host — domain or IP address without protocol, for example sftp.example.test.
• Port — usually 21 for FTP/FTPS and 22 for SFTP.
• Upload folder / path — the folder where Eofferix should place the result file.
• Login and password — credentials with write access to that folder.
• ZIP before delivery — enable it if the receiving system expects an archive or the result file is large.

How to check

1. Save the profile.
2. Run a demo or full launch.
3. After completion, check that the file appeared in the specified folder.
4. If it did not, check the port, path, user permissions, and external availability of the server.

Important

Do not confuse this setting with an FTP/SFTP source. A source brings input data into Eofferix; delivery sends the finished Eofferix result outward.
