Upload Data

The contents of the file to write. It is recommended to enter a template expression that evaluates to a string (such as the output from the Convert to CSV action). If an object (such as an array or JSON object) is passed in, it will be converted to a string first.

The hostname or IP address of the server to connect to. If a hostname is used, the hostname must be resolvable via public DNS.

The port number. The default FTP port is 21, if you are unsure, use that.

Username

Text

The username to authenticate with.

Password

Text

(error)

The password to authenticate with.

File Path

Enable FTPS

Checkbox

(error)

Whether or not to connect via FTPS (different from SFTP).

Use Passive Mode

Checkbox

Whether or not to transfer the data using FTP Passive Mode. Check with the server host to see if this is required by the server.

Overwrite Existing Files
