v25.10:  SFTP Connector

The SFTP Connector enables secure file transfers between the platform and external systems. This feature allows organizations to establish encrypted connections with SFTP-enabled servers for both manual and automated data exchange workflows.

Unlike standard FTP, SFTP encrypts both commands and data during transmission, ensuring sensitive information remains protected. The connector supports standard authentication methods including password-based and key-based authentication, allowing organizations to align with their existing security infrastructure.

The SFTP Connector follows the same configuration pattern as other JustPerform connectors. Users access the Connections interface, select SFTP from the available options, and configure the necessary parameters. Once established, these connections integrate with various JustPerform features that support external data integration.
