    CC: @ptaylor, I have a question regarding the SFTP. I am not able to use SSH Auth snap to download the files due to vendor restriction. Is their any other way using script can i download the sftp files.

    If we can do it, can you please provide some sample.

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,
    Ajay

      Hi Ajay,

      I don’t understand what this means. The vendor of what? The vendor who controls the SFTP server? If they don’t support SSH keys, how do they expect you to access an SFTP server?

    Perhaps Basic Auth?

      Right @ptaylor. Vendor won’t support SSH.
      you are right. I will use the Basic Auth, i completely missed it.

      Using Basic Auth snap can i connect to third party vendor and download the files

      Basic auth isn’t SFTP. That’s what the S means. Perhaps it is just FTP?

        It is an sftp, but they are saying they support only following command line statements

        sftp @reports.xyz.com
        cd reports
        get

        with SSH Auth and Basic Auth i can’t do this.

    Perhaps.
    I’ve had clients implement with just Username/PW.
