Usage Notes
To perform SFTP Put, we require host and port on which the SFTP server is running. SFTP implements secure file transfer over SSH. Typically port number 22 is used for SFTP(which is also default port for SSH). We also require valid credentials in the form of user name and password. Please make sure that you are able to SSH to the SFTP server using specified user and password. SSH connection to SFTP server can be customized by providing additional configurations such as enable host key checking by setting configuration property 'StrictHostKeyChecking' to 'yes'. These additional configurations can be specified using Properties for SSH section.
Directory/File on the Filesystem which needs to be copied can be specified using Source Path property. The specified path should exist. Destination directory is the absolute path of the directory on the FTP Server where the files will be copied. If destination directory does not exists, then it will be created first.
