How to get Use SFTP? (Secure FTP), FTP Host, FTP Port, FTP Username, FTP Password, Root directory, Destination filename pattern, Private Key, Charset, File's extension (eg. txt), Fields Separator Char, Headers row number (default 0)

Some FTP/SFTP details such as host name, username and password are required for accessing your files on the server by using an FTP client. The FTP details will comprise a server address (similar to ftp.yourdomain.com), a username and a password.

In case that you don't have, or you don't know, those details, you should contact your web hosting provider, and they will be able to give you this information.

Usually, web hosting services provide you these details after you sign up for a web hosting package. In most cases you’ll receive your FTP/SFTP information details in the welcome email sent from your web host provider after signing up to their services.

Below you can find a short description for each field from the FTP/SFTP integration:

  • Use SFTP This toggle will allow you to use the Secure mode (SFTP), if your FTP server implements it

  • FTP Host This is the hosting server name

  • FTP Port This is the server port, the default port for FTP is 21, and for SFTP is 22

  • FTP Username/Password Your FTP credentials, usually they're the same as your cPanel login details

  • Root Directory This is the folder in your FTP service where you would read files from or put files to. If any provided, the root dir will be used

  • Headers row number This is the row index (0 based) in which the file headers are located

  • Charset This is the charset encoding of your input files

  • File's extension This is the extensions that will be used to filter files in case you use your integration as a Source

  • Fields Separator Char The char used as separator in the CSV file

  • Destination filename pattern This value will be used to define the name of the output file in case the integration is used as Destination. You may use Date and Time patterns chars such as Y/m/d H:i:s. Notice that you should type the pattern inside square brackets, for instance [Ymd]

Step 2.E: Email Receipt (Optional)

You may choose to receive an email receipt for each incoming lead.

  • Type the address(es) where you'd like to receive the receipt
  • You may also modify the Subject line of the email

  4. You may leave blank the box of a field's information you don't want to send through. Clicking on the Show unmapped fields button you will have visibility on all the available fields still not mapped
