SFTP Private Key – Setup

To authenticate a SFTP Private Key Connector you will need to provide the following values:

Host URI

The URI where the SFTP server is located, e.g.: sftp://example.com

User Name

The username to authenticate as with the SFTP server, e.g.: sftp_user

Private Key

The PKCS #1 RSA private key that the SFTP server knows as an authorized_key for the username provided.

Example:

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
MIIEogIBAAKCAQEAv9fnWThDaI2kVqkZrI0euSHEQBea2yewrcth78GpD9JfFMvd
...

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Passphrase (Optional)

If the private key requires a passphrase, provide it here.

Server Time Zone

The timezone used by the SFTP server. If not set correctly the List Updated Files method will not function as expected.

Example: Europe/London

IP Allowlist

If the SFTP server is not publicly accessible, ensure you allow Cyclr to connect to it by creating exceptions in firewalls, etc as necessary.
