Self-hosted FTP/SFTP

We’ve added Inbound and Outbound Self-hosted SFTP Communication Channels to the Communication Channels page.

From the Communication Channels page, you now can create:

• Orderful-hosted SFTP: Orderful creates, hosts and manages the SFTP server.
• Self-hosted FTP/SFTP: You create, host and manage the SFTP server.

Currently Self-hosted SFTP Communication Channels have the following restrictions:

• Only X12 data can be sent and received.
• Username and password is the only available authentication method.
• For FTP protocol, only passive mode is supported.
• Orderful deletes files after downloading them. Archiving files after downloading them will be available soon.

If you want to create a Self-hosted FTP/SFTP Communication Channel without one of these restrictions, you’ll need to contact our support team.
