SFTP Send Endpoint Settings
SFTP send endpoint settings configure where to send B2B messages transmitted over SFTP. There are two types of SFTP send endpoints:
-
Send to Partners
-
Target endpoint in an outbound message flow through which transformed B2B messages are sent to partners, either directly or through third-party connections
-
Acknowledgement endpoint in an inbound message flow
A host, partner, or third-party connection can own SFTP Send to Partners endpoints.
-
-
Target at Host
Target endpoint in an inbound message flow through which transformed JSON and XML messages are sent to the backend applications.
Only a host can own SFTP Target at Host endpoints.
Create SFTP send endpoints by configuring these settings on the <host> or Partner pages. You can also create these endpoints when you configure an outbound message flow:
